HALFORD Producer To Fill In On Second Guitar - Dec. 16, 2002

HALFORD producer/co-writer Roy Z (TRIBE OF GYPSIES, BRUCE DICKINSON, ROB ROCK) will fill in on second guitar for the band's upcoming 2003 world tour as the replacement for Patrick Lachman, who announced his split from the group last week. Roy is not expected to become a permanent member of HALFORD, who will resume the auditioning process for a full-time replacement once the upcoming touring commitments have been fulfilled.

"Everyone in HALFORD are excited all the pieces are now in place to hit the road," frontman Rob Halford stated. "We've got a very versatile set prepared, so come and get it."

Roy Z helped Bruce acheive and maintain his god status, i think. not that he couldn't have done it by himself, but i respect him a lot! if you haven't heard bruce's last few albums...what the HELL have you been listening to!?

Roy Z did some great work on Chemical Wedding- my fav maiden or bruce album

i dont really care, im going because of TestAmenT!!!! in fact, i would MUCH rather that Halford did not play on the rest of the tour. i got so pissed when i found out TestAmenT was not headlining the rest of the tour

I feel lucky to be seeing them headline up here with no Halford. I'm like you and would much rather see Testament. While the new Halford is pretty killer..Testament is BETTER!
