Axl Rose ‘humbled’ by support over Hall of Fame refusal

The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame website says the inductees are selected by the
votes of more than 500 rock experts from a list of nominees drawn up
annually by the Foundation’s committee on the basis of 25 years in the
industry and “unquestionable musical excellence.”

Guns N’ Roses found fame in the 1980s with hits like “Appetite for
Destruction” and “Paradise City” but the original line-up
broke up in the 1990s after a feud between Rose and guitarist Slash.

Rose on Tuesday congratulated the other artists who were inducted on Saturday
and apologised to the city of Cleveland, where the Hall of Fame is based, “for
not apologising to them beforehand for not attending.”

Other musicians
inducted on Saturday included Red Hot Chili Peppers, Donovan, Beastie
Boys, the late Laura Nyro, and the late Freddie King.

An edited version of the ceremony will be broadcast on HBO on May 5.
