As we previously told you, Todd Rundgren was voted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame this year, but fans should not expect to see him at this year’s induction ceremony. Todd is not a fan of the Hall of Fame, and has previously called it a “scam,” so he has declined to attend the event next month.
“My relationship with the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, quite obviously, it’s not copacetic,” he tells Ultimate Classic Rock, noting he has a show booked that night. “I have offered to do something live for them from my venue. I will stop my show and acknowledge the award and mostly acknowledge my fans, because it’s for them.”
Todd says that it was his fans who wanted him in the Hall, “so it’s a celebration for them, not so much for me,” adding, “But for me to do something extraordinary for the Hall of Fame would just be hypocritical. You know, I’m too much on the record about my feelings.”
The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction takes place October 30th in Cleveland, Ohio.
