Judas Priest Fans Don't Miss KK Downing?

09/21/2011
. (Rock News Desk) The last remaining founding member of Judas Priest says former bandmate KK Downing isn't missed by their fans.

Bassist Ian Hill reports that no one's been asking him about the guitarist now he's been replaced by former Lauren Harris axeman Richie Faulkner. And while he's in the dark about why Downing decided to quit ahead of Priest's final world tour, he suspects he just didn't like being in the band as much as he used to.

"Richie is an altogether great talent. He does what Ken did plus his own little traits. He's a great performer and character," Hill tells the San Antonio Metal Music Examiner. "The crowd is taking to him well, and with all due respect to Ken, no one's missing him. No one's asking about Ken. You'll know why when you see Richie perform." more on this story
