Iron Maiden Rock Hall Induction: Jack Black, St. Vincent Perform with Members of Metallica, RATM, and Mötley Crüe

Iron Maiden secured their place in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame during an induction ceremony held on Saturday night at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles. Despite being on tour in Australia, the renowned metal band was celebrated through a performance featuring an eclectic lineup of artists. Jack Black and St. Vincent shared the stage with bassists Brad Wilk of Rage Against the Machine, Robert Trujillo of Metallica, and John 5 of Mötley Crüe.

Dubbing the one-off supergroup as "St. RageTallica 5", Black and St. Vincent delivered powerful vocals for the iconic song "The Trooper". In a heartfelt moment, Jack Black inducted Iron Maiden, declaring, "Has there ever been a band that has rocked this hard for this long? The answer is 'no.'" The metal veterans, however, were not present due to their ongoing tour commitments.

Despite their reservations about the Rock Hall of Fame, previously expressed by vocalist Bruce Dickinson, the band expressed appreciation for the honor upon receiving the news, with manager Ron Smallwood stating, "We'd like to thank the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame for including us in the 2026 roll call of inductees. Iron Maiden have always been about our relationship with our fans above anything else, including awards and industry accolades."

A primetime special showcasing performances and highlights from the induction event will air on December 8th from 8:00–11:00 p.m. ET on ABC, streaming concurrently on Disney+ and Hulu the following day.
