But they\u2019ve done nothing of the sort this time, shrouding the event in more mystery than any induction ceremony in recent memory, or perhaps in the entire history of the organization. It\u2019s leaving us with quite a few burning questions.

The tour kicks off Nov. 23 in S\u00e3o Paulo, Brazil, meaning Sumner is on the verge of crossing the Atlantic. Might he come over a bit early and head up to L.A. to make peace with Hooky? We have no idea, since Sumner hasn\u2019t said a word in public about the Hall of Fame, but it seems pretty unlikely.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\tDoes that mean Peter Hook accepts the award on his own?

The speeches would have been legendary, and it would have gone down in history as one of their all-time great moments. Unsurprisingly, they both decided to remain in England. Noel is playing at Goldie\u2019s EFG Jazz Festival at London\u2019s Royal Festival Hall, and Liam has his own reasons. \u201cEveryone\u2019s a soft cunt these days there boring as fuck everyone\u2019s up there own arse and far too sensitive,\u201d <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/liamgallagher\/status\/2120081780258554113\" target=\"_blank\">he wrote on X. <\/a>\u201cI\u2019d rather stay and stack the dishwasher\u2026If it was in the UK I\u2019d be there but for some reason it\u2019s in LA and that\u2019s miles away.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\tThe other members have yet to speak out, but it\u2019s very safe to assume that current members Gem Archer, Paul \u201cBonehead\u201d Arthurs, and Andy Bell have no intention of angering their paymasters by showing up. They\u2019ve done no press since the reunion began, and they surely won\u2019t be seeking out the spotlight here. But the Gallagher brothers have no sway over past members Tony McCarroll, Paul McGuigan, and Alan White. It would be quite amusing to see those guys stand at the podium representing <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/t\/oasis\/\" id=\"auto-tag_oasis\" data-tag=\"oasis\">Oasis<\/a>, but it\u2019s certainly possible. (Something similar happened when Dire Straits got in back in 2018 and Mark Knopfler stayed home.)<\/p>\n<section class=\"brands-most-popular \/\/ recirculation-modules lrv-u-margin-tb-2 lrv-u-border-a-2 u-box-shadow-5-5 lrv-u-padding-lr-1 a-span1 u-padding-b-1@tablet u-overflow-hidden\">\n<h2 id=\"section-heading\" class=\"c-heading larva  lrv-u-text-align-center u-border-color-black a-font-theme-primary-xxs lrv-u-color-black lrv-u-text-transform-uppercase u-letter-spacing-0063 lrv-u-padding-t-050 u-padding-b-0375@tablet lrv-u-padding-b-050@mobile-max lrv-u-border-b-2\">\n<p>\t\tRelated Content<\/p>\n<\/h2>\n<\/section>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\tBut it\u2019ll be tough for two drummers and a bassist to perform \u201cWonderwall\u201d and \u201cChampagne Supernova.\u201d The Hall of Fame is going to have to bring in guest artists for that.

You\u2019ve gotta be match-fit to do something like that. You can\u2019t just go onstage. You\u2019re going to have to rehearse. And by that point, if you haven\u2019t been singing, your voice is going to be shot, and that\u2019s not going to be good. I\u2019d rather not do it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\tBut that was six months ago. Since that time, Collins has said that he\u2019s been thinking about a comeback tour. \u201cOnce you\u2019ve been onstage all your life and tasted that, it\u2019s difficult to stop,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/music\/music-news\/phil-collins-contemplating-comeback-tour-1235654574\/\">he recently said in an interview with the Rock &amp; Roll Hall of Fame.<\/a> \u201cI never say exactly never. Every now and again, I think about, well, going out on the road again. You can\u2019t do that kind of thing just for a half a dozen shows, because it\u2019s not financially practical. So I do think every now and again that I haven\u2019t finished.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\tIt\u2019s extraordinarily unlikely, maybe 100 to 1, but not completely outside the realm of possibility that he\u2019s secretly been getting his voice in shape and will begin this live comeback at the Hall of Fame. It\u2019s very easy to close your eyes and imagine the moment. The lights dim at the start of the ceremony. A familiar drum loop begins to play. The spotlight hits a man seated in a chair. \u201cI can feel it coming\u2026\u201d The place would absolutely erupt. But now open your eyes and rejoin a reality where Collins will likely sit in the audience and watch a group like Twenty One Pilots or Coldplay play the song.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\tIf the Hall inducted Phil Collins as a solo artist a decade or two ago, as they should have, we wouldn\u2019t be in this situation. They have only themselves to blame.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube\">\n<p>\n<span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Carrie Underwood &amp; Billy Idol Rock &quot;Rebel Yell&quot;!

He\u2019s been patiently waiting decades for this big moment, and would likely be there even if he got his leg stuck in a bear trap on the way over. And there\u2019s no doubt that he\u2019s singing \u201cWhite Wedding\u201d and \u201cRebel Yell\u201d alongside guitarist Steve Stevens. There\u2019s also no doubt it\u2019ll be a big highlight of the evening. Even at 70, Idol remains a stellar live act. His shows with Devo this year were incredible.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\tBut the Hall of Fame won\u2019t put him and Stevens on that stage alone. They\u2019ll almost certainly give him a duet partner. In recent years, he\u2019s sung with both Carrie Underwood and Miley Cyrus. It\u2019s easy to imagine one of them showing up for an encore performance, along with a wide range of others. We don\u2019t know who it\u2019ll be, but he\u2019ll definitely be paired with someone much younger. This is a TV event that attempts to hit as many demographic sweet spots as possible.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube\">\n<p>\n<span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Dolly Parton, P!nk, Rob Halford &amp; More Perform &quot;Jolene&quot; Live | Rock Hall 2022 Induction\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/gNdpSl_xSJc?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<h2 id=\"how-will-they-honor-bob-weir-and-dolly-parton\" class=\"heading larva \/\/   lrv-a-font-primary-l   \">\n\t\tHow will they honor Bob Weir and Dolly Parton?\t<\/h2>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\tThankfully, we haven\u2019t lost many musical giants since the last Hall of Fame ceremony took place. Two big exceptions are Bob Weir and Dolly Parton. It\u2019s a safe bet that Hall of Fame organizers are going to pause the proceedings to honor both of them. Could that mean John Mayer paying respects to his longtime bandmate? And is there a single country artist on the planet who would turn down the chance to sing for Dolly? We expect to see some heavy hitters on the stage. Let\u2019s pray that Rob Halford is one of them. They had a great moment together when Dolly was inducted in 2022. (Let\u2019s also hope they skip past the obvious \u201cI Will Always Love You.\u201d She has a very deep catalog. And they can\u2019t top the \u201cJolene\u201d from 2022.

That could just mean the Hall of Fame brings in another hard rock band to play one of their songs. But it also might mean they simply play a mini-doc that sums up their career as the Hall of Fame sets the stage between acts. They\u2019ve done this a lot in recent years to move the show along. It would anger some metal fans, but feels like a very plausible scenario.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube\">\n<p>\n<span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Sade - Smooth Operator (Live 2011)\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/r0yI78cFeVs?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<h2 id=\"will-sade-be-reduced-to-a-video-montage\" class=\"heading larva \/\/   lrv-a-font-primary-l   \">\n\t\tWill Sade be reduced to a video montage?\t<\/h2>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/t\/sade\/\" id=\"auto-tag_sade\" data-tag=\"sade\">Sade<\/a> waited until the relative last minute to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/music\/music-news\/sade-not-attending-rock-roll-hall-fame-induction-ceremony-1235655607\/\">announce that they weren\u2019t coming to the Hall of Fame,<\/a> but it was hardly a big surprise.

And if they all speak, it\u2019ll be a very long evening.<\/p>\n<section class=\"brands-most-popular \/\/ recirculation-modules trending-in-article lrv-u-margin-tb-2 lrv-u-border-a-2 u-box-shadow-5-5 lrv-u-padding-lr-1 a-span1 u-padding-b-1@tablet u-overflow-hidden\">\n<h2 id=\"section-heading\" class=\"c-heading larva  lrv-u-text-align-center u-border-color-black a-font-theme-primary-xxs lrv-u-color-black lrv-u-text-transform-uppercase u-letter-spacing-0063 lrv-u-padding-t-050 u-padding-b-0375@tablet lrv-u-padding-b-050@mobile-max lrv-u-border-b-2\">\n<p>\t\tTrending Stories<\/p>\n<\/h2>\n<\/section>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube\">\n<p>\n<span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"opening scene from BigLebowski with George Bush and Half&amp;Half for $0.69 only\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/jW-TV8W5SLU?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<h2 id=\"will-rick-rubin-actually-dress-up\" class=\"heading larva \/\/   lrv-a-font-primary-l   \">\n\t\tWill Rick Rubin actually dress up?\t<\/h2>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\tThe Rock &amp; Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony is no longer a black-tie affair where the male inductees wear tuxedos. But most honorees still make an effort to look at least somewhat glamorous. That said, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/t\/rick-rubin\/\" id=\"auto-tag_rick-rubin\" data-tag=\"rick-rubin\">Rick Rubin<\/a>, this year\u2019s Award for Musical Excellence winner, lives much of his life like he\u2019s cosplaying as the Dude from <em>The Big Lebowski.<\/em> He\u2019s even worn shorts to major awards show ceremonies. Will he dress up for the occasion or remain in character? Like all the other questions on this list, we\u2019ll have definitive answers in just a few days.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/music\/music-features\/2026-rock-and-roll-hall-of-fame-induction-burning-questions-1235656107\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We\u2019re just days away from the annual Rock &amp; Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony at L.A.\u2019s Peacock Theater, and the list of no-shows&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":76958,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[36],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-76957","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-pop","article","has-excerpt","has-avatar","has-author","has-date","has-comment-count","has-category-meta","has-read-more","thumbnail-"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/musicianvoice.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/76957","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/musicianvoice.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/musicianvoice.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/musicianvoice.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/musicianvoice.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=76957"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/musicianvoice.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/76957\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/musicianvoice.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/76958"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/musicianvoice.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=76957"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/musicianvoice.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=76957"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/musicianvoice.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=76957"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
