K.K. gives the O.K.

K.K. Downing, of Judas Priest, is ready to go on tour. A message on his official site goes a little something like this:

“It seems that the time has come for us to put the touring wheels in motion for our next world tour in 2011! It’s funny but these days around – about this time – I can’t help but reflect on the past when we had to load the touring van ourselves. Sometimes in the ice and snow, being afraid that we would get frostbites on our fingers and not be able to play the gig!“

Read full post here, although it goes on and on and on forever.

Can’t musicians just announce something without making it a mini-biography? Jesus. If I had a band, you know what my updates would sound like? “Tour. 2011. Bye” or in case I’m feeling ‘ranty,’ I’d make it a bit longer… “Tour in 2011. Goodbye.”

If any band needs a badass PR guy, let me know.
