Check "Erwin" question in Guy's forum:

@Dmac:
I see no harm in asking Guy if MK will be at the induction. When there is some news Guy can share i’m sure he will.


Answer: He Will

A quick read could let you think that it means MK will be at the induction. But, typical mistake most of us do when asking Guy, finishing with a sentence that it's not the question but that's the one Guy answers...

"He Will" is the answer that "When there is some news Guy can share I'm sure he will", not to "MK will be at the induction"

My first read made me think there was already a confirmation of MK going to the induction but no...  :(

I'd say it's a typical mistake for a non native English speaker / reader

Funnily, Guy has deleted the answer, but he has left a dot undeleted  ;D :lol

He doesn't want to be held responsible if people buy tickets for the ceremony just to see MK NOT being there probably.
I'm sure he would have given a hint or two if there actually was something worth buying an expensive ticket.

Dot could mean end of discussion

That's what I do when people talk about me while I'm in the same room.
It's a way to show a bit of an annoyance

Do you all think it is not very strange that at this moment there is still no official word from MK if he will be there. Could be me though?

I was contacted by someone from the hall of fame asking me about a photo he saw on my site. I took this opportunity to ask if MK will be at the ceremony. Reply  (quote);

"Yes, Mark will be at the ceremony! We’re all very excited"

That is great news!

Kind regards,

Jeroen

Thank you for the info J

The key question remains if there's a performance or not and if so who performs

So probably everybody will be there, don't know about Pick.
Question remains if they all will perform. To be honest, i think that will not happen.
Today Guy confirmed on his forum he also will be there, with or without MK.

I just sent the person another mail, asking if DS will perform on stage and if so, if MK will be part of the performance. Hoping to receive an answer to that, but I have no idea if that info will be shared already. We'll see. I will post the answer here once I receive it.

Thank you so much for the info!!! I had a pair of good tickets in my cart, and ticketmaster froze up and released them. I was devastated. I was able to secure a single ticket towards the back of the venue though. Anybody else from the forum plan on attending? Even if they don't perform, just to see them standing together will be the first time I have ever had the opportunity to do so. The last time they toured, I was just out of diapers......
