Glenn Tipton discusses future plans with Judas Priest

[@rodneybrimer1712]

I got Screaming for Vengeance when I was 13. I was blown away, the twin guitar attack of KK and Glenn two different yet powerful styles. I had never heard anyone then that could scream to the heavens or sing anything like Rob Halford. They have been with me thru my teens till today at 49. They are part of my life. Proud to see them stand behind Glenn. They are not only a great band but great people. Hang in there Glenn!

[@Impalaman1968]

Watching one of my favorite guitarists go through this is heartbreaking. I'm not necessarily a religious man, but Glenn is in my prayers.

[@docnasty74]

Impalaman1968 Totally feel the same way, brother.

[@keithallver2450]

Glenn at 70 and with Parkinson's is still a better guitarist than most.A true legend!

[@Mithradatha]

Judas Priest is the definition of metal period.

[@daveoz8991]

When somebody asks, "What is heavy metal?" hand them a copy of any JP album

[@ringo12112]

What an amazing group nothing but respect to all of them.🤘

[@яковгоров]

first heard JUDAS PREST in August 1980 ... immediately subdued vocals ROB HELFORD and rhythm ... style .. since then it's my favorite band ... thanks to musicians for many years of outstanding work ... I wish all health and successes....JUDAS PRIEST FOREVER!!!

[@Agirmetal]

Long live Judas Priest. Respect from Turkey. Ten thousands years from now, you will be known and praised.

[@lisawilliams-oc6vp]

I am not going to cry I am not going to cry I am not going to cry. Because this is just TO much. For me Glenn Tipton means All The World to Rob Halford. Ian Hill. Richie Faulkner. Scott Travis. And his fans. And plus his music.

[@FatalArrivalMetal]

Love Judas Priest. They strongly influenced our music and will always be our idols \m/ ♥♥♥ \m/

[@kennedykiser557]

I've been a Big Fan since 1976 & seen them live 12 times over the years. They are the Best Metal Band I've ever heard in my 54 years of living. We all get old physically & mentally & have to make adjustments in our lives. Wishing the best for you Glen & Thank You for your commitment to Heavy Metal Music. All Hail the PRIEST

[@CorvusCorax.]

Kenny K My bro 🤘

[@rodrigorsl]

*Brazil Loves Judas Priest!*

[@keefriff99]

I'm leaving in 45 minutes to see Priest at Mohegan Sun in CT. It would be amazing if Glenn shows up for the encore again if he's feeling up to it. Either way, I'm stoked!

[@chuckstanley4744]

keefriff99 ill be in Kent Washington here on April 15th for the Metal Gods. Can't wait to see them finally. \m/

[@hermanhelmich]

And... did he?

[@itsmezed]

Keefriff99 I was at that show too! Damn amazing, wasn't it?

[@m1che1]

Glenn Tipton is a heavy metal legend.

[@JFPriest]

Gentleman..Thank you for doing this.. We saw you at the Opener for the Firepower Tour The Mohegan Sun Arena in Wilkes Berra, Pa.. You guys were amazing (The Roof came off the Arena that night)... Kind of hoping to see Glenn.. Glad he made it on later tour Dates..

[@psuengineer84]

Glenn is awesome!

[@drewsmith6066]

Cool band right there..stay cool guys

[@GmanDGuitarTG]

We all know Judas priest is the greatest metal band. They are definitely one the greatest bands of any musical genre.

[@lizardsboy81westcoastshawn7]

I have so much respect for judas priest the original lineup was the best especially early 80's l8 80's live shows were so perfessional it's Awsome

[@toretok5386]

Tipton the guitar guru, great band, wish you all the best

[@tubemonks]

Tipton = the best rock guitarist ever!!

[@feverlay666]

Glenn is by far my favorite human ever. I Hope he'll continue to give us the best of metal for years and years. Sincere love from France

[@timm441]

I feel bad for Glenn but the guy is a trooper. God bless him. Priest being one of my all time favorite bands, it's a hard thing to hear and watch at times, but they have already given the fans so much, so if it actually does stop now then so be it. They will always be considered one of the greatest founding metal bands of all time.

[@AlexKnightVancouver]

It’s hard to watch Glenn. My grandmother who died two years ago had Parkinson’s. It’s tough seeing what it does someone’s body.

[@Impalaman1968]

Alex Knight ....So sorry for your loss bro, Parkinsons and Cancer are 2 evil, unforgiving diseases, and there needs to be a cure found for both. But until that date arrives, all anyone can do is keep up the fight, and try to soldier on against the disease.

[@dylanbelak2120]

My guitar hero. I love you glenn

[@97warlock]

I feel so bad for Glenn. Hes been THE coolest since late 70s when I started seeing pix of Judas Preist in the magazines. They didnt show Rob, no KK, ... And that little picture saying "Learn how to play guitar like your heroes ...and it showed a pic of Glenn with his leather jacket & Black guitar looking coool as hell.

[@donhendy493]

Very well said lads 🙂 Wishing you the very , very best Glenn Tipton ...

[@truthdrone7066]

Great guys!

[@dwayneharris222]

LOVE YOU GLENN. THE BOYS WILL TAKE CARE OF YOU. REMEMBER YOUR JUDAS PRIEST. THANK YOU FOR MY YOUNGER YEARS, ARMS WIDE OPEN. YOUR A ROCK GOD. MMM KISS,,,,,,MIGHT WANT TO GET A HELL of alot more fans. LOVE YOU GLENN.

[@pzkpfwivfreak2473]

my heart is breaking. im 55 years old, and weeping like a child...

[@Stefan-]

Respect !!!

[@jeanettedarrin6743]

Pray that all goes well with you and your battle, Glenn. I have also been diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease (3/2018).Not sure what the future holds for me---but,none of us do!? Wishing you well--you are an amazing musician 🎸🎶🎶

[@cenaakashakash]

Sad to hear that... What's your age bdw?At what age did the disease start attacking you?

[@totovassallo7255]

Grandiosi

[@skywolf2012]

METAL GODS 🤘🤘

[@dorotakoniak5853]

Glen Thank you for the Painkiller. It has changed my aesthetic taste so much. I say Painkiller and enter sandman and then.... the rest of the world.

[@Fred_P]

Great answers by a great band, but why the hell does the interviewer talk over them? How hard can it be to shut up and show some respect?

[@timm441]

I for one am really curious what the future of Priest is. Firepower is a great album, and if it happens to be their last, then it's a great one to go out with. It's just hard to imagine Priest continuing with Glenn now. Losing KK was hard enough, but without both their legendary guitarists... really, what's next?

[@remygaron8311]

🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦is in love with JP

[@1251wire]

Fuck...almost spilled my beer..."a question I can't really answer"...my Priest is done. Please respect my opinion...KK and Glenn...the heroes I grew up with and learned every pose and solo, their posters on my wall...that is gone. I accept it.

[@michaelstephen819]

The band may stop touring or change their lineup, but that music we all grew up with has never gone - and will never go.

[@坂本彩-k9x]

please KK come back 😭😭

[@Mithradatha]

Gelnn please please use CBD for mitigating it! I'm sure Rob has already given him all the necessary tips regarding cannabis.

[@giovanicobhc]

K.K. WHERE ARE YOU

[@thelostclock6930]

God damn I just lost $15,000 on Air Canada stock and this is even sadder.. I hope wellness for you Tipton...

[@scorpionstingz4983]

So what, the body breaks down but we will all be together in our new bodies someday forever with Christ. If you are all not there well it would not be Heaven... now would it?

[@charlottebakker5580]

Sad to see this, state of condition

[@steliosemmanouilidis5050]

My heart is gonna break when Glenn dies.He is the most impressive guitarist ever in my opinion.This old ass guy used to shred the shit out of the guitar!Tell me,do you know any other bands from 1969 that have gotten this heavy and that actually shredded?I don't think so.Even tony iommi witch is even younger than glenn never even thought about shredding,they mostly played blues stuff

[@thomasbranc8907]

There's must be a reason for glenn to use a cap

[@坂本彩-k9x]

KEN and Glenn are misunderstanding each other. I want you to go back to Judas Priest and reconciled I want you to heal Parkinson's Glen

[@Williameagleblanket]

The interviewer is comparing cancer to parkinsons disease.. That is just dumb AF.

[@tontoepstein6860]

A wig with gray highlights. Nice touch.

[@shagstars]

You are the most disrespectfull poser I've ever seen in the yt comments in my whole life.

[@elijahlovell4210]

Tonto Epstein You have no respect or class. People like you make me sick

[@chriskerwin9050]

I wish the intervewe r would shut up and let them answer

[@stevenkilpatrick6397]

Stupid sunglasses tho

[@tontoepstein6860]

This is such a farce. The dude didn't play on the album and they knew he wasn't going to tour. Tickets first went on sale in October 2017. For the concert promoters and the people that bought tickets, it's nothing less than fraud. My only question is if there was a secret deal with the promoters and they were informed of Tipton's unavailability prior to signing the deal. The band obviously received a guarantee, I would assume the amount of the guarantee would have needed to be negotiated accordingly if the promoter had received advance notice. If not, then that's fraud.

[@MattKittredge2112]

That's awesome that you were in the recording studio with them...considering that's the only way you would know something like that.

[@Nightshade1881]

Shut the fuck up! It's still god damn priest! Halford is fucking Priest Yeah it sucks that kk and Tipton are not playing But it will always be Priest with halford in this band!

[@tontoepstein6860]

I'm getting tired of repeating myself, matt k. The photos from the time of the recording sessions speak for themselves.

[@greybrother01]

Feel free to stop being a fan and go the fuck away then.

[@sergeimartynov7355]

Yes he is a fraud, just like Mozart and Beethoven...

[@leeconnelly6364]

Glen rocks, one day he won't be able to do the show, he's made provisions for that.. Says he really loves the band and fellas. He can play when able the fans will be lucky those nights. Don't think his part in firepower didn't play a part in it being such a fantastic record. He's teaching the kids the trade! Their learning!
