      I hit it all very very hard from 1982 until 2016. Now I occasionally brew up a few days worth of clean white lightnin, practice my acoustic and singing until I snap a string, and watch concert videos.

      @@kencoleman5007 That’s good your a caring person. 😂 But he meant that he don’t have any problems with Rob being gay. But yeah, the way he wrote the first sentence made him sound like a prick, but when I read the rest of it, it made more sense. Alls that matters is JUDAS PRIEST KICKS ASS! 🤟🏼 ✌🏼

    • @kencoleman5007
      @kencoleman5007 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @sixstringhans-tone5574 Indeed. I've just seen so many comments from people who support Halford's being gay as long his in-song sexuality is plausibly straight. For Josh Kiszka (of Greta Van Fleet) and Lzzy Hale, their target demographics seem more receptive to songs that can be explicitly gay.

    • @mp-kq3vc
      @mp-kq3vc 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      We're the same age. When I was growing up, at least in my little pocket of the world, calling someone gay was the hugest insult. Fight-starting words. When Rob came out as gay, it changed my whole perspective. I thought, "Well jeez, he's just as awesome as he ever was. Maybe even more so now for having the guts to announce that. I guess the gay thing doesn't matter so much after all."

    • @kencoleman5007
      @kencoleman5007 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @mp-kq3vc It was definitely a big step for musicians when he came out. Whitney Houston's bisexuality was a tightly guarded secret until a few years ago. The next step is freedom to be able to release songs where the musician isn't necessarily playing a role in hetero dynamic.
      Rebel Girl (by Bikini Kill) was very Sapphic, but like the ladies of tATu, Kathleen Hanna was playing it lez for the sake of being a provocateur. Joan Jett's covering the song adds more authenticity. Etheridge's "Come to My Window" and Fletcher's "Becky's so Hot" take that authenticity up a level because the LGBTQ songwriting isn't performance. I saw the S Club reunion tour, and (now out) Jon Lee got so much audience support when he was able to finally adapt the lyrics so that "Sunshine" was about a guy.

    Way back in 1983, Judas Priest came to my little town of Beaumont Texas and played at the Beaumont Civic Center. A friend of mine‘s older sister won backstage passes from the local radio station.
    The next day at school, she told us that Rob Halford was gay.
    We told her she was crazy.
    And she was like, no really he’s gay. 😆
