Axl Rose Declines Rock Hall Induction: Singer Says Guns N' Roses Reunion Will Not Happen

Axl Rose Declines Rock Hall Induction: Singer Says Guns N' Roses Reunion Will Not Happen

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/04/11/axl-rose-declines-rock-hall-induction_n_1419042.html



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."
