Original GNR Will Show For Hall Of Fame

Dizzy Reed reveals that everyone will be there

Published 15th Feb 2012

In a new interview with Billboard Reed - the longest serving member of the band except Axl Rose - revealed that everyone involved with Guns N Roses during their heyday will be turning up in Cleveland on 14 April to be inducted into the Hall Of Fame.

"I know that all the original band is going to be there," keyboardist Dizzy Reed tells Billboard.com. "I don't know exactly what's going to go down. It's one of those things I'm sure will all come together and be really cool. I'm just going to go in with a good attitude and a clear head and a grateful heart."

Reed, who joined the band in 1990, says that he hasn't spoken to Rose about the ceremony.

"Honestly, we haven't spoken about it," Reed says. "I don't know when or why or how to bring it up. It's not an every day sort of thing. So we haven't really talked about it -- but I'm sure we'll have to at some point."

Reed calls the Rock Hall honor "pretty cool...especially when you think about all the people who are already in and helped make rock 'n' roll what it is. It's a real who's who of great musicians." The keyboardist adds that he's also excited "for the people that have supported Guns 'N Roses over the years. It's really cool for them more than anyone else. To me, that's the most important thing."
