One of the more active online members of the original GNR is Duff McKagan, who juggles his time as an author, columnist, financial manager and, oh ya, bassist for his band Loaded.
Here’s what Duff had to say about the news:
“Thanks 2 all of u for overwhelming # of 'congratulations' that I have received 2day. Rock and Roll Hall of Fame? Life is good! Killer! Duff”
With Duff’s comments, fans have now heard from everyone in the original lineup except guitarist Izzy Stradlin.
Here’s links to the band members statements:
Slash
Steven Adler
Axl Rose
All eyes now will be on Cleveland for the 27th annual Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony, which will take place on Saturday, April 14, 2012. The ceremony and concert will be recorded by HBO for broadcast in early May.
