In the meantime, we are all sending love to our Falcon for a speedy recovery …. As soon as we have any updates from his doctors on when we can reschedule the dates we will of course announce them.
The tour was due to end on November 5 in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada.
Tickets for the canceled shows will remain valid once the new dates have been arranged.
Rob Halford says “the clock is ticking” for Judas Priest!
Meanwhile, frontman Rob, 70, previously admitted he and his bandmates are “moving faster” than ever before because “the clock is ticking”, as he vowed to continue rocking like The Rolling Stones.
When asked if fans can expect their next record to be out in the next 12 months, Halford said:
Probably not, no. But we’re starting work [on new material]. And like I’ve always said, it’ll be ready when it’s ready. But we’re probably moving faster than we ever did because the clock is ticking.
Rob added:
Thank you, Rolling Stones. When I watch Mick [Jagger] and the boys, man, it makes my heart swell…And [the way] those guys are doing it at that point in their life — man.
The metal rock star concluded:
I said a year ago, I wanna be screaming out ‘Painkiller’ when I turn 80; I wanna be on a stage somewhere.
Rob says that Richie is in recovery and doing well:
