The 2019 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction ceremony is this Friday at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center and Roxy Music are among this year’s inductees. They’ve just announced that Bryan Ferry will reunite with Roxy members Phil Manzanera and Andy Mackay to perform at the ceremony. Drummer Paul Thompson, who returned for the 2001-2014 Roxy reunion, and Brian Eno (who left the band in 1973) will not be there “due to other commitments.”

Duran Duran’s John Taylor will induct Roxy Music on Friday at Barclays, while David Byrne will induct Radiohead (who were named after a Talking Heads song), Trent Reznor will induct The Cure, Janelle Monae will induct Janet Jackson, Harry Styles will induct Stevie Nicks, and more. Tickets are still available.

Meanwhile, Bryan Ferry will celebrate Roxy Music’s Avalon on tour this year.
