SLASH To Honor JIMI HENDRIX At U.K. MUSIC HALL OF FAME - Oct. 17, 2005
BBC News is reporting that VELVET REVOLVER guitarist Slash (ex-GUNS N' ROSES) will also lead a supergroup in a performance to honor legendary guitarist Jimi Hendrix at this year's U.K. Music Hall of Fame in November.

Hendrix will be honored alongside THE WHO, THE KINKS, JOY DIVISION/NEW ORDER, PINK FLOYD and BOB DYLAN at this year's ceremony.

The ceremony, at London's Alexandra Palace on 16 November, will feature performances by ALANIS MORISSETTE and THE PRETENDERS.

A panel of 60 broadcasters, artists, journalists, and industry executives have selected the bands.

Artists can be of any nationality as long as they have had success in the U.K.

Last year's induction ceremony saw THE BEATLES, MICHAEL JACKSON, MADONNA, BOB MARLEY, ELVIS PRESLEY, QUEEN, CLIFF RICHARD & THE SHADOWS, THE ROLLING STONES, U2 and ROBBIE WILLIAMS become the inaugural members of the U.K. Music Hall of Fame.

This year's ceremony will be broadcast on Channel 4 on 17 November and will also feature NEW ORDER performing the JOY DIVISION classic "Love Will Tear Us Apart".

The late DJ John Peel will receive 2005's Honorary Membership of the U.K. Music Hall of Fame in acknowledgement of his exceptional contribution to U.K. music.

DJ and TV presenter Dermot O'Leary will present the induction ceremony on Channel 4, while Radio 2's Mark Radcliffe will broadcast live from the event.

Doesnt know scales ... like Marty Friedman. He is a self admitted musician who plays by ears.

Such demons in society are born with the guitar in hand. Worship them!

Although there are other technically brilliant mofos like Petrucci, Loomis, Gilbert, Vai, Satriani and Sckolnick. I will die envying the way they grace the stage.

i think this will be amazing. he is the man for the job, no question. fuck steve vai and all them wanking fiddlers. the G3 dvd is the most boring thing in the world unless you want to brush up on your harmonic phyrigian or whatever (and even then it's not that exciting).

slash is a legend, so is hendrix

Jimi Hendrix has to be one of the greatest guitarists ever and slash isn't too bad himself so slash should be honored to honor jimi. Let Hendrix's spirit live on in his music.
