You can also buy "tickets" to watch it online:


Official Simulcast Tickets

Tickets for the official Simulcast at the Rock Hall are priced at $26 and will go sale to eligible Members on Feb 13 at 10 a.m. EST and to the public on Feb. 15 at rockhall.com/ticketing. Outside of Public Auditorium, the Simulcast at the Rock Hall is the only place to see the Ceremony in its entirety, live and uncensored.

Apparently we'll be getting a new diary entry and news on the RRHOF cerimony within the next few days. I don't know but I have a very strong feeling that Alan's band might have triggered off a DS reunion for the event. Without Alan.

No, without Alan.

I was just joking
But still, why would Alan miss this ? He's an inductee and has every right to be there without MK's approval.

LOL I used to like Alan very much indeed. Still do as a musician though. Anyway, I don't see Mark performing live with Alan again any time soon.

What if Mark contacts the HOF and says that he'll play at the ceremony as long as Alan is not on stage? Mark can't forbid Alan to show up and grab his award but the HOF can't force Mark to play with Alan either. So, if you were the president of the HOF, would you accept Mark's terms or say no to him? I think it's a no-brainer, don't you think?

Well, RnRHoF can't forbid Alan to show up either.
They'll probably try to arrange the situation between all protagonists though. But they can't forbid an inductee to show up. The no brainer would have been no induction for Alan.

His answer was very neutral

'If you'd like to go then' buy some tickets. Sounds like 'whatever'

And saying he will give some news later sounds to me 'but you'd rather wait a little bit, I have some bad news but I can't tell yet'

IMHO MK fans shouldn't rush on tickets because it may be not worth it.

And it's what I've done.
Mark is no God you know, it is RnRHoF rules.

Like I said in a previous post, Guns N'Roses has been inducted 2 or 3 years ago.
The ONLY members who were there were former members of the band. Axl Rose, the equivalent of Mark Knopfler  didn't show up at all.
Former members + a singer who NEVER actually played in the band performed that night.

You see, it will happen with or without MK.

Oh god... did I say it wouldn’t? I asked if you, as the person in charge, would prefer to have Mark, John, David, Guy and Pick playing, as Mark could hypothetically demand, or Alan and whoever wants to join him instead? It’s not about rules, it’s an administrative decision. The HOF can do whatever they want, it’s a private organization.

You give me only 2 choices
I'd prefer to have all inductees perform together because that's how it is supposed to be, that's how it is traditionally designed.
But it rarely happens to be like that. So I guess it doesn't really matter what the president wishes or not. At the end of the day it's the inductees choice.
