METALLICA TO INDUCT BLACK SABBATH INTO THE ROCK AND ROLL HALL OF FAME
3/8/2006
[ back ]
So there we are, hanging out at HQ getting ready for our first visit to South Africa, and a call comes in wondering if we can leave a few days early and stop by New York to induct a bunch of guys from Birmingham, England (they're called Black Sabbath, you might've heard of them) into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. It took us all of 3/4 of a second to say "f**k yeah!!"
Black Sabbath wrote the book on heavy music, and like many other snot-nosed kids, we read it religiously over and over again. For all of us in Metallica, Black Sabbath are a major influence not only on our music, but on our lives, and as you can imagine, we're psyched to join Bill, Geezer, Ozzy, and Tony for the induction ceremony on Monday, March 13.
Not only will we be inducting Sabbath, we are going to make a humble attempt at playing some of their songs live in front of the gathered masses, including, most humbling of all, the four members of the band themselves.
If you want to check it out, VH-1 will be there with their cameras. For show times look here.[/quote] _________________ Cha Cha Chaaaa |

Meh. Too little too late.
They were snubbed for so long while absolutely ridiculous groups were let in, it doesn't even mean anything anymore.
EDIT: and as someone who's not a fan of metallica, I'm less than thrilled at them playing Sabbath songs. But it couldn't possibly be any worse than the Icons show on Aerosmith where Pink/Shakira/etc. did theirs... _________________ "I care about people as much as I care about lawn furniture" - Dexter/Michael C.

Johnny should go naked. Or at least give a horribly obnoxious speech.

I honestly think they added them because the UK music hall of fame did.
They have been eligible for 5 years or so, too. _________________ [img]http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y148/Sephir0th666777/mercy.jpg[/img]
