Judas Priest bassist Ian Hill is featured in a new interview with Greenville Online discussing the band's 40 year career. An excerpt from the story is available below.
Hill: "When I look back over 40 years, I do so with a great sense of gratitude, really, and privilege to have done that over all of these years and be successful. And to have been able to earn your coin from it, it's been a brilliant, brilliant, very privileged sort of way of making a living."
The current tour is slated to continue into 2015. There are no concrete plans for the band after the tour ends, but Hill said he can't see himself strolling into the sunset of retirement.
"We all still love it, and we're are still able to do it. What else are we going to do? Sit around gardening and stuff like that? That's not for old rock 'n' rollers. We want to be out there and doing what we love."Go to this location for the complete story.
