I'm a married man and I've got two children, and you have to do sacrifices.

I think we all appreciate it now just how lucky we are to be in a band like Judas Priest.

We love not just Judas Priest music, but we love heavy metal and we love to get out on that stage every night and perform. It's a joy to be able to do it.

Shortly after that, we got management problems over in England, and Judas Priest asked me to join.

The hardest part is to travel, and to be away from your family.

I've got the luxury to tailor make the songs so I can sing them.

In my first bands I was a singing guitar player, but if you heard any of those songs you wouldn't describe me as a singer. But I can make it work.

A lot of bands that reunite do it for the wrong reasons. They do it for the bucks and everybody can sense it.

I never took a lesson until I was 20, and I'm glad I had those years living the life of a normal person. I don't consider that time wasted.

Back in 1994 there was no Judas Priest.

There are a lot better musicians than me out there that just haven't had the luck to fall into everything like I have.

oh my soul...be prepared for him who knows how to ask questions

Endeavour to play easy pieces well and with elegance

... You have a heart and nerves the same as your brother men! Why should you be anxious to conceal them?

Sometimes love can be both the punishment and the crime.

Nature gave men two ends-one to sit on and one to think with. Ever since then man's success or failure has been dependent on the one he used most.

You can't rely on the fact that people know you. At Glastonbury, when they all knew I was DJing, everyone was cheering even though they'd never heard some of the tracks I was playing before.

I wasn't getting invited to any board meetings. I had to kick the door down.

The beginnings of all things are small.

Only if we are capable of dwelling, only then can we build

If you have never felt your soul poured out before the Lord with a consequent exhaustion, it is doubtful whether you have advanced far in the school of prayer.
