ROB HALFORD Interview To Be Re-Broadcast On KNAC.COM

April 18, 2008

KNAC.COM's Philthy Phil spoke to JUDAS PRIEST frontman Rob Halford yesterday (Thursday, April 17) about the upcoming releases from Rob's Metal God Entertainment, PRIEST's "Nostradamus" CD and tour, as well as Halford's participation in Record Store Day on Saturday, April 19 at Fingerprints in Long Beach.

The interview will be re-broadcast on KNAC.COM at the following times:

Friday, April 18 - 1:00 p.m. PST and 9:00 p.m. PST
Saturday, April 19 - 10:00 a.m. PST

JUDAS PRIEST will be teaming up with HEAVEN AND HELL, MOTRHEAD and TESTAMENT for a U.S. tour in August. Several unconfirmed dates for the trek were recently leaked via Pollstar.com, the companion web site of the concert industry's leading trade publication.

JUDAS PRIEST's upcoming tour will include shows where the group's entire "Nostradamus" album (based on the legendary 16th century prophet Nostradamus) will be performed as well as concerts featuring the band's classic songs.

JUDAS PRIEST will release its 16th studio album, "Nostradamus", June 17 via Epic in North America and a day earlier internationally. The double-disc set that tells the story of the 16th century prophet, Michel de Nostredame (whose name is often "Latinized" as Nostradamus) is PRIEST's first-ever concept album, and was recorded throughout 2006 and 2007 at Old Smithy Studio in the U.K.

As previously reported, JUDAS PRIEST's official web site has been updated with what appears to be a preview of the "Nostradamus" artwork. Check it out on the splash page of www.judaspriest.com.
