Longtime Judas Priest manger Jayne Andrews was a guest on the latest episode of Gabbing With Girlfriends, the new podcast hosted by Gloria Butler, the wife and manager of Black Sabbath bassist Geezer Butler.
Andrews spoke about Priest’s Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame induction ceremony on November 5 and said, "To be honest, and I probably shouldn't really say this, [K.K.] seemed a little bit nervous and almost out of his depth. And when we talked about it afterwards, we thought, well, Priest have carried on touring all these years; he hasn't. So he's probably lost a bit of confidence, coming to a big event like that, obviously, having to confront all of us. He didn't know how we would be… I said we've got to see one person. He's got to see six people, really, five [without] me… But it's just a shame that once he realized that there was no animosity from our side that he didn't just stick his head around the door and say 'thank you.' But there we go. He didn't, so never mind."
