Jason Newsted up on stage with Metallica again? |
|
METALLICA frontman James Hetfield recently spoke to Rolling Stone magazine about the band's nomination for induction into the 2009 Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame in its second year of eligibility, with the band qualifying because it has been recording for 25 years. An excerpt from the chat follows below.
Rolling Stone: Most likely, METALLICA will be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame next April. Who will be onstage with you?
Hetfield: "Everyone that played on a record should be there. You're considered for the Hall 25 years after your first recording, not after you formed."
Rolling Stone: That would omit Dave Mustaine [former METALLICA guitarist and current MEGADETH mainman].
Hetfield: "He wasn't on a record. Jason Newsted [former METALLICA bassist] should be up there — he was in the band for 14 years and played on quite a few records. And so should Robert [Trujillo; current METALLICA bassist]."
Rolling Stone: Will it be weird to be there with Jason?
Hetfield: "There's no reason for it to be weird. We don't want to be part of the soap opera of the Hall of Fame. Everybody wants a train wreck, like with BLONDIE onstage arguing over crap [in 2006]. That really cheapens the moment."
Sorry I have no links. Found this on another forum.

We're in!!
Check out the press conference here: http://www.fuse.tv/music/metallica.
Wow . . . what a great way to start off 2009! We are beyond proud to let you know that we will indeed be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in a ceremony held in Cleveland on April 4, 2009. As a refresher, it has to have been 25 years since your first record was released to be eligible and while it certainly doesn't feel like it's been that long, we hear that's the case!
So here's the other cool part. For the first time in the 24 years that the Hall of Fame has been around, tickets to the ceremony will be available to YOU! The induction ceremony will be held at Public Hall in Cleveland, and if you're a member of the Hall of Fame and Museum, you can buy tickets in a pre-sale on January 22 and 23. There is a walk-up sale on Saturday, January 24 (that means you have to find your way to the box office at the Hall of Fame that day), and finally they will be available through all Ticketmaster outlets starting on Monday, January 26.
Met Club members: we will have more info by the end of the week for your special ticket sale. Stay tuned.....
We are keeping company with some amazing and legendary performers as Jeff Beck, Little Anthony & the Imperials, Run-DMC, and Bobby Womack will also be inducted that night.
Sorry, no details yet about exactly who will be at the induction as presenters and performers, but we can tell you that it will be broadcast live on Fuse and available on www.fuse.tv.
Keep watching here for more info and you can also check out the Hall's site at www.rockhall.com.
Full Press Release:
The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Announces its Inductees for 2009
Induction Ceremony to Air Live on Fuse TV, April 4, 2009
January 13, 2009 - New York- The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Foundation today announced its inductees for 2009. The induction ceremony on April 4, 2009 will take place in Cleveland for the first time since 1997, and will be broadcast live on Fuse TV in a new three-year broadcast deal between the Foundation and Fuse. The ceremony will be supported by a weeklong series of events. In addition, for the first time in its 24- year history, tickets to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony will be accessible to the public.
"This year's class of inductees truly represents what the Hall of Fame is all about. From classic artists that began their careers in the 50's and 60's to those that have defined the modern sound of rock and roll," said Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Foundation President and CEO Joel Peresman. "These artists demonstrate the rich diversity of rock and roll itself. We are proud to honor these artists and celebrate their contribution to rock and roll's place in our culture."
The performer inductees are:
Jeff Beck
Little Anthony and the Imperials
Metallica
Run-D.M.C.
Bobby Womack
Early Influence Category Inductee:
Wanda Jackson
Sidemen Category:
Bill Black
DJ Fontana
Spooner Oldham
The 2009 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame performer inductees were chosen by the 600 voters of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Foundation. Artists are eligible for inclusion in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame twenty-five years after their first recording is released.
In addition to being honored at the April ceremony, each inducted artist is commemorated at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum in Cleveland Ohio, which serves as a monument to rock and roll's impact on our culture. These inductees will be honored – along with previous year's inductees and hundreds of other artists – with an exhibit and film that serve to tell the story of modern music.
A limited number of pre-sale tickets to the Induction Ceremony at Cleveland's historic Public Hall will be available to Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum members on Thursday, January 22 and Friday, January 23.
Pre-sale tickets will be available to the public during a one-day walk-up sale on Saturday, January 24 at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum Box Office. Tickets to the Induction Ceremony will be available at all Ticketmaster outlets beginning Monday, January 26. Fans can contact Ticketmaster at www.ticketmaster.com.
Presenters and performers at the induction will be announced at a later date. The induction ceremony will be televised live on Fuse and available on www.fuse.tv April 4th, 2009.
Metallica is the most successful heavy metal band of the past quarter centry. Metallica's line-up has primarily consisted of drummer Lars Ulrich, rhythm guitarist, vocalist James Hetfield, and lead guitarist Kirk Hammett, as well as current bass player Robert Trujillo. Longtime bassists for the band, the late Cliff Burton, and Jason Newsted, are also being inducted. Metallica's early releases included fast tempos, instrumentals, and aggressive musicianship that placed them as one of the "big four" of the thrash metal subgenre alongside Slayer, Megadeth, and Anthrax. The band earned a growing fan base in the underground music community and critical acclaim, with the 1986 release Master of Puppets described as one of the most influential and "heavy" thrash metal albums. The band achieved substantial commercial success with its self-titled 1991 album, which debuted at number one on the Billboard 200. With this release the band expanded its musical direction resulting in an album that appealed to a more mainstream audience.

I thought this was pretty cool to share, from Megadeths Myspace:
Metallica as you know has been selected to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. So, it is with much respect that I say "congratulations!"
I also had the nice surprise of hearing that they called to invite me to the pre-ceremony party the night before, and then to the actual ceremony. Unfortunately as you all know, I will be winding down our European tour with Judas Priest so I will be unable to attend.
However, I'd like to say to Lars and James, "I am so very proud of all you have accomplished. I will continue to pray for the very best for you and your families as I always have."
Thank you for the invitation and thinking of me.
Respectfully yours,
Dave Mustaine

I don't hate him. I like Megadeth and I'm with you, people shouldn't overreact on everything he says. Live and let live
