    Hetfield Takes Well Deserved Swipe at HOF Drama

    Metallica Wants Rock Hall Induction To Be "Drama Free"
    Posted by Mitch Michaels on 01.23.2009

    Newsted invited to play at the show, plus who would Metallica have inducted?

    Metallica recently spoke about their upcoming induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.

    "Life is good in Metallica right now," James Hetfield said.

    When asked who would induct them, Hetfield said: "I think that's an ongoing discussion. Between who the people actually know and care about, who actually respects you as a band… You don't want just some popular guy who's attracting TV viewers to induct you just because of that."

    Hetfield also spoke about a one-off reunion with ex-bassiest Jason Newsted: "There's been an invite put out, no doubt. We want everyone to celebrate — everyone who's been a part of it. Jason has been a big part of that. You don't want to see the drama of a… unfortunately, Blondie or [Sex] Pistols or Van Halen. It's ridiculous. This is Metallica's moment — along with others — but let's celebrate. Let's forget the crap."

    James also commented on how late bassist Cliff Burton would feel about the honor: "I would like to think that Cliff would love this."

    Each member of Metallica was also asked what band he'd like to see in the Rock Hall. They lobbied for Motorhead (Hetfield), Deep Purple (Lars Ulrich), Rush (Kirk Hammett) and UFO (Robert Trujillo.)

      I wonder if Mustaine will get a nod. I mean technically, he has never played on a Metallica record.

          I'm sure they'll "make nice" and thank him for the early days so he won't run back to smack.

          Newstead should be onstage as well. The Cliff era is the real Metallica ,imo.
          Shit, I wish that dude was still alive. Saw them with Cliff on the Ride The Lightning tour , fuckin killer!

                          Does the LIBRARY censor thread titles?

                          It refers to the DRAMA spED caused at the HOF, mensa.

                          Feel free to move it though....

                                      It's still rings as such a wasted fucking opportunity.....

                                      spED can't pull it together long enough to fly to The Hall, thank the fans, accept the award like an adult, play a song with Dave and Mike, and FORGET THE DRAMA FOR ONCE.

                                      But instead, he has to turn it into another soap opera, and HAND the spotlight to the ChedMaster.

                                      nice.

                                          Mustaine never played on a Mettalica record? That is news to me, I thought he was at least on the first one.

                                          But yah, I think he should be invited, he was a part of the band when they were getting started and I am sure he had a long lasting influence.

                                          As far as Newsted goes, I wouldn't be suprised if he didn't show up. I bet there are some hard feelings there still. But yah, he should put them aside and bask in his glory if nothing else.

                                              ME too. I understood he wrote half the songs at least on the first album but they've since ditched the speed metal thing.

                                                  Mustaine received writing credit for 4 or 5 tunes on Kill "Em All, yet did not play on the album.

                                                      Mustaine played on ONE song, which was recorded for a 'Metal Massacre' compilation, if memory serves.

                                                      He co-wrote several songs which appeared on the first two 'Tallica records, but Hammet did the playing.

                                                      I imagine that they will certianly give him props.

                                                      Will Newstead accept the invite? I certainly hope so.

                                                      I imagine that they will get somebody who sucks to induct Metallica though - some teeny-rock crap like Fall Out Boy...

                                                          It would be cool if they had Lemmy Kilmister to induct the band.
