Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction set for Los Angeles, with many big names skipping the stage

The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame is set to induct several prominent figures in Los Angeles on Saturday, including Billy Idol, Phil Collins, Sade, Queen Latifah, New Order, Luther Vandross, and Iron Maiden. However, many of the inductees are skipping the induction ceremony. Oasis' guitarist Noel Gallagher will not attend as he is performing in Britain, while his brother Liam is not interested in award ceremonies.

Iron Maiden will be on tour in Australia, and Sade has declined to participate. Phil Collins may appear, but he cited health concerns for not playing his songs. New Order and their former incarnation Joy Division will be inducted jointly, and hip-hop artists Wu-Tang Clan, Queen Latifah, and MC Lyte will also be honored. The ceremony will be televised on ABC and Disney+ on December 9.
