Earlier this yr, Judas Priest lastly had their title referred to as for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, however they’re going in as recipients of the Musical Excellence Award. While there are sometimes music performances related to these incomes induction by the Rock Hall’s voting physique, it is not as clear the place these receiving the particular honors are involved, however because of drummer Scott Travis, we now know that Priest are planning a efficiency.
Travis was a visitor on the Rocker Morning Show with Mark Frankhouse for 107.7 RKR in Kalamazoo, Michigan (heard beneath), the place he mentioned the upcoming induction ceremony.
“Naturally, it’s a super honor. I always felt that Priest would get in eventually, only because you can’t have something called the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and not have Judas Priest in it. So there were a couple of events prior to this year where we were nominated — I think that’s the right word; I’m not sure — but we were in the running. And we didn’t quite get in, but I was always confident,” says Travis. “Priest will get in eventually, and same thing with some of the bands that aren’t in yet — they will get in. But yeah, it’s a super honor. And there’s nothing else you can say about it, really. It’s pretty cool.”
As for whether or not or not we’ll see a musical illustration, Travis divulged, “Yeah, we are. They give you a limited amount of time ’cause there’s obviously lots of artists that are gonna be performing. So they gave us a set amount of time to perform. And we decided we’re gonna try and work in a medley and do some of the Priest classics and put ’em all into a medley, which we’ve never done before. So it should be interesting.”
Priest will go into the Rock Hall on Nov. 5, becoming a member of their fellow inductees at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles.
