Roy Khan is going to be a hard person to replace. I wonder how much of his burnout was related to his health problems that stopped him from being able to do the tour. (Or which caused which?)

I'm curious to see if he joins another band or does a solo career or just retires from music.

Yeah, there are bits on the Wikipedia page about possible reasons, but he and Kamelot are being (understandably) discreet.

I do wish we knew more, if only so we could know whether to expect him him to continue in the music business. As for Kamelot, I think I'd actually like it if they pulled a Nightwish and found someone with a different style. I don't think Khan's voice defined Kamelot the way Tarja's did Nightwish, but personally I think I'd like it better if they found a new person who was strong in their own way rather than trying (failing) to imitate Khan.

I'm definitely willing to give a new Kamelot lead singer a chance, but I will admit that Khan was a very large portion of my enjoyment of Kamelot.
