Thanks Bruce Payne for denying RB at the Hall.
Blackmore FB just now :
Rock and Roll Hall of Fame update
Ritchie was honored by the offer of induction to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. He was discussing the possibility of attending, until we received correspondence from the President of the Rock Hall of Fame, who said that Bruce Payne, management for the current Deep Purple Touring Band, had said "No"..........!!!!!"
Therefore Ritchie will not be attending the ceremony. He sincerely thanks all the fans that voted for him for their support.

Re: Thanks Bruce Payne for denying RB at the Hall.
Just came here to post this. This is bullshit! It sounds like Ritchie was actually considering going and Payneinthearse says no?!
I'm done with this current incarnation; they'll never get another penny from me. They want to be petty, then so will I.

Re: Thanks Bruce Payne for denying RB at the Hall.
No to what? Performing or attending?
If it's the latter then serious questions have to be asked about the RNRHOF validity if they allow a manager to deny a past member the opportunity of attending.
RNRHOF must make a statement about this!
I like the wording in the Blackmore statement - "current Deep Purple Touring Band".

Re: Thanks Bruce Payne for denying RB at the Hall.
I don't know if Bruce Payne can stop Ritchie attending ? He can obviously stop him performing with the current band though.This is an absolute outrage though no doubt ptr and the other Morse sympathisers will try and defend the indefensible .Love him or loathe him Ritchies drive and vision and talent are without doubt the main reasons for the purple induction.

Re: Thanks Bruce Payne for denying RB at the Hall.
If this is true, then it's a very sad day for us, the fans, firstly beacause it shows that there is no peace between the two parties, and secondly that it's worse than we thought because such information come out publicly. The battle rages on...

Re: Thanks Bruce Payne for denying RB at the Hall.
Simple fact is this current "touring version of Deep Purple" wouldn't be getting the award at all if Ritchie hadn't some of them from obscurity...
If this current touring version has such an issue with him going, perhaps they should stop making money off of him and stop playing the riffs he undeniably came up with?

Re: Thanks Bruce Payne for denying RB at the Hall.
If this is sad it's just so sad. The current version of the band really should take a long look in the mirror. What a shame!
They cant't obviously stop him from going but how fun is it for him to go and not feeling welcome? Aparently the same thing happened at the RAH 2014. What a mess!
