Metallica frontman James Hetfield wants to end his feud with former bassist Jason Newsted. He has invited Jason to rejoin the band if they are inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame next year.
They’ve already been nominated for entry in 2009, and James wants to use that as a tool to bring together all of the musicians who have appeared on Metallica’s albums.
He says, “Everyone that played on a record should be there. You’re considered for the Hall 25 years after your first recording, not after you formed. Jason Newsted should be up there, he was in the band for 14 years and played on quite a few records. And so should Robert.”
We’ll find out later this month if they are actually going to be inducted.
