"This is our Oscars," Priest frontman Rob Halford tells Billboard. "When the nominations come up and the inductions come up, you often wonder that it would feel like if you were able to be on stage at that moment making an acceptance speech and particularly having the pleasure to be in the company of all the other musicians and industry people. "So, yeah, if we do get in it will be an absolute dream-come-true moment. Fingers crossed, as they say." Read more here. hennemusic is an official news provider for antiMusic.com.
