(Gibson) Judas Priest frontman Rob Halford says the U.K. metal band's so-called "farewell tour" does not mean they won't play together again. In an interview with Creative Loafing, Halford says the band is not retiring.

"Is there another word besides 'farewell'? You can't say 'retired' because we're not retiring, and you can't really call it the 'you are slowing down a bit tour.' You've gotta give it a little bit of something.

"We thought long and hard and 'farewell' is really the way you can describe this particular world tour because we're not going to do all these big world tours anymore. They've just become too difficult in many, many ways." more on this story
