I talked with ROB HALFORD!!

Ok, so I am supposed to be the unaffected professional that doesn't get geeked out by talking to a famous rock star...right? WRONG! While doing this as long as I have, not many guests cause a full-blown geek alert anymore...except for this guy named Rob Halford of Judas Priest. One of the few reasons I found my way to hard rock and metal in my formative years. Uncut and unedited, we went for 45 minutes...what a great guy! I heard stories, like many have, of Rob being difficult. Not true at all during my 45 minutes of his time. We talked about the birth of metal in Birmingham, the Hear n' Aid project in 1986, and all-things British Steel. We will feature much of our conversation with Rob (and KK too!) on our 4th Of July weekend Rockin' 80's special. Make sure you are locked and ready to rock then!! ~Zander
