Former Guns N’ Roses guitarist Izzy Stradlin has released the following statement regarding the band's induction into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame this weekend:
"I have waited up to this point to see what would become of the GN'R induction into Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame. I would like to say THANK YOU and GRACIAS to Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame for the acknowledgement of our works over the years as a band. BIG THANKS to all my bandmates who helped get us to where we are today. And, of course, THANK YOU to all of the people on this planet (including, but not limited to, the entire universe and beyond, etc., etc., etc.) who have supported Guns N’ Roses from day one. Adios, Amigos!"
Stradlin is not expected to attend Saturday’s event, while Axl Rose is boycotting both the evening and his induction as a member of GNR, despite the fact that he continues to use the brand name.
Green Day will induct GNR in Cleveland, and fans will be able to catch the 27th annual Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony when it premieres on HBO on Saturday, May 5th (9:00-11:30 p.m. EST/PST).
