Kenneth coveted the name, seeing the band's van ride by.
"If only I could have that name" he admits to expressing to himself.
Soon after the guitarist for that band committed suicide.
Kenneth auditioned for that band, he knew little guitar, having started out at 16 (very late).
They rejected him, the Afro-wearing coloured drummer not being impressed with a white-boi "that looked like a girl I would fuck and rape, haha (deep voice), rape is legal for us brothers on white faggots (faggot ment weak stick and referred to "useless old women", which blacks saw all white women as, at this time in england).
A year later that band was broken up.
Kenneth had miraculously learned the guitar rapidly in one year.
Kenneth thought "if only I could have the singer of that band"
Kenneth started a band called Freight, with his familliar from kindergarten: Ian Hill.
Kenneth looked like an androgen or a girl. Just as the greeks described the northern peoples many centuries earlier. Arms stick thin. Apparently such was the style.
What Kenneth wished came true.
The singer heard Kenneth's band playing and was entranced.
He begged to join Freight.
Kenneth had one request:
To use the name JudasPriest.
His original goal from 2 years prior.
This is how it started.
Later Ian, being a man, chose to leave the band, having a wife.
This angered Kenneth.
He then wished for a new singer that would never leave.
He remembered Rob Halford from down the block.
Kenneth traveled to Rob's abode.
And asked him to join his band as it's voice.
What Rob saw was a person who had very long golden-white hair.
Blue eyes.
And was androgonys and looked like a girl.
And he became entranced.
Suddenly, Rob Halford was gay.
His future of having a wife and children erased.
Just as the future life of the guitarist from the blues band was erased.
Just as any success for the Afro Black drummer and his band was erased.
Just as the future for the singer of that band was erased.
Just by want.
Kenneth wanted this.
And thus it was.
Rob Halford then chased Kenneth for decades, until kenneth's corperal body started to erode.
The thing is, however, that "KK"'s mind has not aged one moment since 16.
All his obstacles are erased very quickly once he "wants" something.
Even the golf course and mansion, once KK wanted to rejoin the world of music, they evaporated from him as if they never existed in his hands.
Always moving forward.
Every want willed into existance.
Every obstacle snuffed out.
Never understanding. Never contemplating.
Always making music for "us white workingclass kids"
