It’s not every day that one of the gods of heavy metal releases a tell-all autobiography.
It’s ever rarer that you get to hear him discuss it live.
Changing Hands Bookstore, in conjunction with Zia Records, will host a live Zoom conversation with Judas Priest’s Rob Halford about his new book, Confess: The Autobiography. The event will take place at 5 p.m. Arizona time Saturday, October 3.
Halford, a Paradise Valley resident, will discuss the book with a special guest moderator who will be announced later.
Confess is “an unforgettable rock ‘n’ roll story – a journey … to musical fame via alcoholism, addiction, police cells, ill-fated sexual trysts, and bleak personal tragedy, through to rehab, coming out, redemption … and finding love,” according to its publisher, Hachette.
To attend the virtual event, you need to buy a copy of Confess from Changing Hands – either $36.09 for pickup at either Changing Hands location, or $44.23 for delivery. Copies ordered from Changing Hands will include a bookplate signed by Halford.
