Dave Herrera from the Las Vegas Review-Journal caught up with Judas Priest vocalist Rob Halford and he talked about the band still having the energy and excitement to perform in front of an audience after 40 years in the metal world.

"There was this attitude, in the early days, that it was a young man's business," he explains. "It was a young man's game. It's a young man's experience. The shelf life of bands was very limited. I don't know when that changed. I think it's just been a very slow progression through the back end of the '60s and the '70s. A lot of people just became more attuned to the fact that, hey, this doesn't have to stop, just when you reach a certain point in your life. This doesn't have to finish because people go, 'How can you be a 60-year-old metalhead? That's for young people, you know.'"
