Re: RRHoF Discussion (Izzy/Slash/Axl Press Statements)
I won't begrudge them for playing with Myles. It's their night. The Gilby thing makes it even more lame, but again, it's their history, their night, they should celebrate however they want.
I never got why people hated the HOF until now. It's a big double standard that they're deciding to induct the new (current) guitarist for RHCP the same night they're telling Axl no to Tommy, etc. Yeah, I'd be pissed too, whether the masses agreed with me or not. Mostly because I know the new guys (shit they've been in the band for over a decade!), even if inducted, would not perform, accept any award on stage, and most likely wouldn't show up. Whether you don't want them acknowledged or not, you have to admit, it's a huge hypocrisy to treat one band different than the other. And they're basically shitting on the new line up (whatever your opinion of them is, it's still Axl's baby that he's toiled over). So, Axl is right. They're spitting in his face and expecting him to take the stage and say thank you for it.
This is NOT the place for a GN'R reunion, anyway.
Re: RRHoF Discussion (Izzy/Slash/Axl Press Statements)
I'll just ask this ONCE for food of thought purposes:
Do you guys really think that THEY (Duff, Slash, Matt/Steven, Dizzy, Izzy) that were inducted and didn't reject it publically really chose Myles to sing?
He is the guy Slash wanted for VR but Duff, Matt and Dave disagreed on.
Also, Dizzy is being completely ignored, even though it would be awkward for him to play, he is being inducted and given the chance of him appearing, he would be able to play given Slash's comments?
Really, to me it's pretty clear now that Axl has been battling Slash behind the scenes for the HoF again and just let it go.

I thought Matt wanted Myles and Slash said no.. So hard to keep up with the as the world turns that surrounds all of these guys anymore...

Good points. Maybe this is happened this way for technical reasons: Metallica and RHCP didn't have too many members, even less alive, while GN'R would have looked like a gypsy caravan with Axl, Slash, Duff, Izzy, Steven, Matt, Dizzy, Gilby, Paul Tobias, Josh Freese, Brain, Buckethead, Robin Finck, Tommy Stinson, Frank Ferrer, Richard Fortus, Bumblefoot, DJ Ashba, Chris Pitman (sorry if I left out anyone), and to be correct, even Tracii Guns, Rob Gardner and Teddy ZigZag could have been in, if all the other guys without any writing credit, and Dave Navarro and Gary Sunshie played on OMG, so they could have also get their card...
Had GN'R have less member changes, the current guys would have been there, for sure. It's not against Axl, just the Hall isn't big enough to have all the past and present GN'R members there.

The HALL didn't induct Dave Mustaine with Metallica, or the original bass player.
From what I always assumed, they inducted founding members, important past members and the current band, like they did with Fleetwood Mac... But they do this when they want... And they select who they deem important.
