Judas Priest announced Downing won't be part of their final world tour. Downing has issued a statement saying health-wise, he's fine, but he adds, "There has been an ongoing breakdown in working relationship between myself, elements of the band, and the band's management for some time."
He says he'd rather step down from the tour than "tour with negative sentiments."
Still, he says fans should still support Judas Priest and the shows are ones not to be missed.
