Glenn Rogers Retiring?

Quote :

Well times are changing,and it's time to move on. I am announcing my retirement from music. I want to thank the Metal Fans and Friends who have followed me over the years. From Deliverance to Hirax ,and Heretic it's been a blast,but nothing last forever accept the drama of being in a band. Stay Metal!

What a great loss. Glenn is a riff monster.

Wow!Didnt see this coming. Such a great player,maybe he'll stop in and tell us more.

Looks like he is tired of band drama... Best of luck to him.

I hate to hear about this. But I wish him the best of luck in everything!!

I saw that and was surprised. He seemed to be enjoying Heretic. However, he does have a wonderful family, so I can understand wanting to spend more time with them and less time in dingy dives.

This makes sense. He's also done his duty. The man has made a great contribution.

Exactly.

Hopefully, he'll still create/record in a "weekend warrior" kind of capacity...he's so talented!!

ROCK ON GLENN!!!!   

Finally, the hero has surrendered!

Thanks it was time to just play for fun. Maybe someday I might come out with something new but not for a while. I'll still be around.

Glenn mentioned this to me when he was here in Vegas playing the last show here. I kept quiet about it. Good luck Glenn, maybe we'll do a recording or something one day!

Too bad. But understandable.

I want that shirt!

Mine or Glenn's sovy? Cuz I have THAT EXACT SHIRT. Bought it off of Glenns back after the Mpls Mayhem gig. It's in my ebay store right now. The Officer Friendly shirt will never be for sale. Plus, it has been super-stretched out by my fat ass.

I meant yours. Is that official Vio-Lence merch by the way?

no - Jello sent it to me from Alt-Ten about 20+ years ago.
