Judas Priest vocalist Rob Halford has issued a statement via Loudwire about recently kicking a phone out of one fan’s hands during the band’s May 25 show in Rosemont, IL.
The incident was captured on video by other concertgoers, some of which have claimed that Rob was upset by the fan’s constant use of flash while taking photos.
The statement says that the fan was “physically interfering” with the performance. It reads:
“The facts are we love our fans and you can film us all you like and watch our show on your phone rather than in the flesh. However, if you physically interfere with the Metal God’s performance, you now know what will happen.”

if you bringing a phone to the front or into the pit – your a fool – any metalhead knows you will lose that and your shades
He’s a great vocalist…but did he just call himself a “metal god?” LOL

Bit egotistical, no?
Metal God , yes he earned that title …nuff said!
