Judas Priest’s Rob Halford celebrates 37 years sober

(Transcribed by Blabbermouth) “Hello, everyone. Today marks my 37th year of my sober life, one day at a time. When I look at this commemorative coin, I’m full of love for my higher power and grateful to you because having you in my life helps me maintain my focus making the best I can in all areas of metal as well as trying to be a better person by taking a daily inventory.”

“I believe we never stop growing and searching to find ways to do anything that improves not only our lives but also for all those we love. None of this is easy and it wasn’t meant to be. We constantly have to work and dig deep into every aspect of ourselves to stay clean and sober.”

“To those of you on this same journey, I send my unconditional love. And to those of you who are about to begin, please take that first step into your new life. I love you,” Rob Halford said.

The singer first joined Judas Priest in 1973, leaving the group in 1992, then returning in 2003. He was the voice on all the classic albums of the group like: “Sad Wings of Destiny” (1976), “British Steel” (1980), “Screaming for Vengeance” (1982), “Defenders of the Faith” (1984) and “Painkiller” (1990).

The band is currently recording a new studio album, their most recent one is “Firepower” released in 2018. During the time he was out of the band, the vocalist had other three bands: Fight, 2wo and Halford. Over the years he also released many solo studio albums.

I'm a Brazilian journalist who always loved Classic Rock and Heavy Metal music. That passion inspired me to create Rock and Roll Garage over 6 years ago. Music has always been a part of my life, helping me through tough times and being a support to celebrate the good ones. When I became a journalist, I knew I wanted to write about my passions. After graduating in journalism from the Pontifical Catholic University of Minas Gerais, I pursued a postgraduate degree in digital communication at the same institution. The studies and experience in the field helped me improve the website and always bring the best of classic rock to the world! MTB: 0021377/MG
