Whereas rock followers proceed to debate the relevance and significance of the Rock & Roll Corridor of Fame, the present should go on, with the 2024 Rock & Roll Corridor of Fame induction ceremony going down on October 19 at Rocket Mortgage Fieldhouse in Cleveland, Ohio. Loudwire introduced the massive performances taking place at this 12 months’s ceremony, and there are some actually attention-grabbing ones to be careful for.
The large information this 12 months is the all-star celebration of enviornment rockers Foreigner, who’re being inducted this 12 months, with Slash, Sammy Hagar, pop singer Demi Lovato, and Purple Scorching Chili Peppers drummer Chad Smith planning to carry out in tribute to the British rock group. Foreigner shall be performing as properly, however wouldn’t you fairly see all these individuals performing Foreigner songs than Foreigner themselves?
The Who’s Roger Daltrey and nation famous person (and just lately outed closet metalhead) Keith City shall be doing a tribute to Peter Frampton. Dua Lipa shall be honoring Cher, and James Taylor will workforce up with nation artists Kenny Chesney and Mac McAnally for a Jimmy Buffett tribute.
One of many largest questions round this 12 months’s ceremony shall be if Ozzy Osbourne, who enters the Corridor for the second time having already been inducted as a member of Black Sabbath in 2006, will carry out on the ceremony. A number of days in the past the Scottish tabloid Every day File reported that he would carry out on the ceremony, however Loudwire appears to counsel that’s nonetheless up within the air. No official affirmation has come out saying that Osbourne will carry out.
Osbourne has expressed a need to carry out in previous months, however whether or not he has the power is one other query altogether. Again in March, Osbourne was requested about performing once more and, whereas he stated he wished to, he additionally admitted to having hassle standing up. It might be nice to see Osbourne carry out yet one more time, however I’d additionally hate to see him push himself too laborious.
The induction ceremony is scheduled to stream dwell on Disney+ at 7 p.m. EDT on October 19 after which shall be out there on-demand afterwards, with a highlights presentation airing on ABC for New Yr’s Day.
