The Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame announced the 2022 class of inductees earlier this year, among them UK metal gods Judas Priest, who received the "Musical Excellence" award at the November 5th event. Former Judas Priest guitarist K.K. Downing, was in attendance and performed with the band, as did Glenn Tipton, who stepped down from touring with the band due to his ongoing battle with Parkinson's disease. Check out video below courtesy of Studio 72 Live! and watch for more clips in the coming days.

In an October interview with Detroit Metro Times, Judas Priest bassist, Ian Hill, was asked if he thinks there’s any chance of ever reconciling with K.K. Downing and him rejoining the band?

Says Hill: "I think time is not on our side for that, you know? Never say never, put it like that. (Downing’s) gonna be there at the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame anyway. He’s gonna get up and play some songs with us there. It might kickstart something, I don’t know. On the other hand, he might pull us all apart (laughs)."

In a recent interview with Ultimate Classic Rock, Downing discussed performing with Judas Priest at the event.

Downing: "I think we've probably got eight or nine minutes. I'm not even going to be able to break a sweat. The main thing is to represent the attitude and hopefully the legend of what Judas Priest is and has become, and what it means to everybody who's been on that very long journey through the decades with the band. Hopefully, it will just kind of remind people and bring back some cherished memories of the heavy metal parking lots all around the world."
