发帖数: 19309 | 1 NEW YORK - The acrimony that helped dissolve Guns N' Roses nearly 20 years
ago still lingers.
Axl Rose announced Wednesday that he won't be showing up to see the band
inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and declined the honor for
himself.
In a letter to the hall, band fans and "To Whom It May Concern," Rose listed
several reasons for not attending Saturday's ceremony in Cleveland,
including a feeling that the hall does not respect him.
In declining his own induction, he added: "I strongly request that I not be
inducted in absentia and please know that no one is authorized nor may
anyone be permitted to accept any induction for me or speak on my behalf."
The hall said in a statement that it still plans to induct Rose with the
rest of the group. "We are sorry he will not be able to accept his induction
in person," it said.
According to the rock hall only the Sex Pistols have declined induction
before.
Although Rose now fronts a reconstituted version of Guns N' Roses that does
not include former members Slash, Izzy Stradlin, Duff McKagan or Steven
Adler, some held out hope that the band might reunite at the hall.
Even Slash seemed to leave an opening for the possibility.
"I have no idea what's going to happen on that day," he said in an interview
with The Associated Press last month. "It's more like going into it with
blinders on and just see what happens."
But Rose apparently was miffed by such talk.
"There's a seemingly endless amount of revisionism and fantasies out there
for the sake of self-promotion and business opportunities masking the actual
realities," he wrote.
He added: "So let sleeping dogs lie or lying dogs sleep or whatever. Time to
move on. People get divorced. Life doesn't owe you your own personal happy
ending especially at another's, or in this case several others', expense."
A rep for Slash said he would still attend Saturday but had no further
comment. Green Day is scheduled to induct the group.
Rose admitted that when it was first announced that the band would be
inducted, he had mixed feelings. But "I was honored, excited and hoped that
somehow this would be a good thing. Of course, if Guns N' Roses were to be
inducted it'd be somewhat of a complicated or awkward situation."
Rose's announcement cast a cloud over the band's induction but in some ways
was fitting, given the dysfunction that marked the group as it became one of
the world's most popular acts in the 1980s and 1990s. Its hits included "
Welcome to the Jungle," "Sweet Child O' Mine" and "November Rain."
Besides Guns N' Roses, the inductees will include the Beastie Boys, the Red
Hot Chili Peppers, the late singer/songwriter Laura Nyro, Donovan, and The
Small Faces/The Faces, which included Rod Stewart and Rolling Stones
guitarist Ronnie Wood. | q***q
