Organizers have issued the following update:

“We are very excited to announce that we have added four amazing counselors to our Judas Priest camp - Bumblefoot, Stu Hamm, Joe Vitale and Robert Sarzo! All of these talented musicians will be spending 4 days with our campers, teaching master classes, hosting jam rooms, and preparing their camper bands for the live performances with Judas Priest!

Bumblefoot - Ron 'Bumblefoot' Thal is an award-winning multi-instrumentalist, vocalist, songwriter, producer and world-renowned guitar virtuoso, with over 20 years of releasing music, playing international festivals and headlining tours, and gracing magazine covers as a solo artist. As lead guitarist of Guns N' Roses (2006 – 2014) Bumblefoot toured sold-out shows all over the world, headlining festivals with crowds up to 150,000. Bumblefoot's unique 'fretless guitar' can be heard throughout GNR's 2008 Chinese Democracy album. Bumblefoot's recent Little Brother Is Watching album is an eccentric, upbeat collection of epic, modern rock with haunting melodies, huge choruses and witty lyrics about life in the digital age and beyond. The day after its release, the album went as high as #4 on the Amazon.com Rock charts in Europe. Bumblefoot's recent collaborations include rock group Art Of Anarchy (featuring vocalist Scott Weiland and Disturbed bassist John Moyer) and DMC (from the iconic rap group Run DMC) / Generation Kill.  He is also an accomplished composer whose music is often heard in TV, film and video games including the theme song to VH1's That Metal Show.

Stu Hamm - known for his session and live work with numerous artists as well for his unconventional playing style and solo recordings. Hamm has performed and recorded with Steve Vai, Frank Gambale, Joe Satriani and many other well-respected guitarists. It was playing live on tour with Satriani that brought Hamm's skills to national attention. Subsequent recordings with Satriani and other rock/fusion artists, along with the release of his own solo recordings (featuring a.o. keyboard player Tommy Mars), solidified his reputation as a bassist and performer.

Joe Vitale is an American singer, songwriter, composer, and multi-instrumentalist. In a career spanning more than 40 years, Vitale has played with many of the top names in music during a career dating back to the 1970s. His first national break came when Ted Nugent hired him to play drums in the Amboy Dukes in 1971. That fall Vitale was invited by his former Kent State classmate Joe Walsh to join Barnstorm, a new group being formed by Walsh in Colorado. The group recorded two albums together and Vitale and Walsh began a longtime partnership although Barnstorm broke up in 1974. He joined the Stills-Young Band for the Long May You Run sessions. Later, Vitale would be one of the musicians that Crosby, Stills & Nash record and tour with beginning with the CSN album and continuing until 2009. He has also co-produced and contributed songs to Crosby, Stills & Nash as well as to solo efforts by Stephen Stills and Graham Nash. Meanwhile, Vitale's longtime partner Walsh became part of the Eagles and Vitale became part of the Eagles' road band on drums and keyboards,The Walsh/Vitale song "Pretty Maids All In A Row" appears on the Eagles' album Hotel California. Among other artists with whom Vitale has appeared are Dan Fogelberg, Peter Frampton, John Entwistle, and Zakk Wylde. He is currently on tour with Joe Walsh.

Robert Sarzo - His career has spanned 40 years. He has worked with an array of notable and iconic people in the entertainment industry. Robert has worked with Interscope/Universal Record's Jimmy Iovine and legendary metal producers, Bob Ezrin and Mike Clink. He also worked with Robert Stigwood of Saturday Night Fever and Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts fame on numerous soundtracks. Robert formed his band Hurricane in the early 80's and went on to have hits such as "Over the Edge" and their #1 hit "I'm Onto You."  Not just a heavy metal/rock and roll guitarist with a classical background, Robert Sarzo has branched out to become a producer and movie music composer.Include the movies, The Hiss, written and produced by David Lynch's daughter, Jennifer, and the 2009 wide-release The Collector written and produced by Marcus Dunstan writer of Saw 4, 5, & 6. Current projects are Hurricane, A Salute To Santana and his 80 Proof VuDu Blues band.

Along with Vinny Appice (Black Sabbath, Dio), Tracii Guns (LA Guns), Phil X (Bon Jovi), Chip Znuff (Enuff Znuff), Frank Dimino (Angel), and Teddy Andreadis (Guns N’ Roses) we have an undeniably amazing group of talent ready to make your rock and roll fantasies a reality!
