JUDAS PRIEST’s Rob Halford is celebrating the 38th anniversary of his getting sober.
On Saturday, January 6th, 2024, the 72-year-old singer shared a video message in which he said: ” Hello, everyone. One day at a time for 38 years. Thank you, higher power, family, friends, metal maniacs, my sponsor Bob for gifting me these commemorative coins I treasure. Each one of you make this sober birthday happen. Yesterday is gone. Tomorrow is uncharted. Today is all that matters. Prayer, self-inventory, amending, holding out your hand — the simple things in life mean the most. To those of us on this same path we walk together, keep walking. To you who may be ready to take the first step, there’s a wonderful new life of unconditional blessings filled with love and acceptance waiting for you with open arms. I’m lifted up and grateful for every moment I live with you all. Thanks again, everyone. I love you very much”.
Rob’s autobiography, “Confess”, in which he discusses his journey to sobriety, arrived in September 2020 via Hachette Books. It was written with Ian Gittins, co-writer of “The Heroin Diaries” by Nikki Sixx.
