"Metallica will not only induct Black Sabbath into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame on Monday (March 13), but the group will also perform a short set of Sabbath songs during the event at New York's Waldorf Astoria Hotel. Sabbath itself is not expected to perform that night." [Billboard]

That's pathetic. If Sabbath doesn't want to play then why the hell should Metallica do it for them. I hope Ozzy calls them all out for being punks, even though he probably had to approve the decision! Either way, I think it's lame! Might as well get Good Charlotte to play Sex Pistols tunes! Whack!

Hey B_Vegan, is there any way you can use your 'powerful' 'industry' 'clout' to get into this thing? Press passes? I'll cover the event for ya....

Who wouldn't want to hear Metallica play Sabbath? To compare Metallica to Good Charlotte? Metallica will be there soon and is better than a lot already there. Yeah, I'll cover it too, hook me up!
