Steve Haynie Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 Halford was hitting his notes! Many times Jol told the story of K.K. Downing accusing him of just wanting to use Judas Priest to sell his guitars, so he asked for a guitar that had his own name on the headstock intead of a Hamer logo. That is the guitar Downing is playing in the video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Haynie Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 Around the 47 minute mark you can see the back of Tipton's Strat. It looks like a 3 bolt neck with two additional screws. Does anyone else think that is the case? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diablo175 Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 Dayum! Halford sound in really good voice! And is it me or does KK's Vector look to be sporting a Floyd-style trem (as opposed to the Kahler, normally associated with this ax?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTMN Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 What a GREAT day that was. Never got close enough to get really good shots but what a Monster Metal lineup. So good I had to fly out from Jacksonville, Fl. for it. METAL!!!! I should post up about that one day and share the crazy things we did to RAWK. Most probably know, but for those who might not, the lineup that day was Quiet Riot, Motley Crue(@noon no less), Ozzy w/ Jake E. Lee, Triumph, Priest, Scorpions, and in their only 1983 date, Van Halen. Yeah Man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, as evidenced by the multitudinous throngs of JP fans breaking down doors to purchase Hamers. What a joke. Hamer might still be around if Downing's accusation had some merit. I like K.K., but that was a dick statement on his part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KK made a crack about it, and Jol/Paul did the logo thing as a friendly poke back at him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brooks Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 I had this on VHS in high school and used to wear it out! no QR or MC on the tape, just Ozzy/Triumph/JP/Scorps (all killer) & VH (not good, unfortunately). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
