He'll be there, but he'll have a mental breakdown halfway through his song and Matt will have to step in for him

No Dave A. apparently.

EDIT: link is dead, the source was not Dave A.

BlastEcho regrets to inform Pearl Jam fans that the story about former member Dave Abbruzzese not agreeing to participate at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony in April is FALSE. BlastEcho apologizes to Mr. Abbruzzese, Pearl Jam fans and anyone else who was misled by this story. The intent was never "fake news," but rather the result of being duped by someone posing as Mr. Abbruzzese. Our deepest apologies.

Lot of belly-achin' out of Dave A. I mean, the band has no say in who gets inducted and who doesn't, right?
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

He's sounding like a teenager who doesn't want to go to Aunt Sue's place for lunch but he still wants to be invited and feel loved/wanted.

#Sad

Although he has a point about the band not doing anything.

I read somewhere that it costs like $10k/person for friends, family and other associates of the bands to attend and sit at the fancy tables. Dave's attitude sucks but I wouldn't pay that much to still not be inducted, either.

Why does his attitude suck? Why would he want to go sit and watch a band that he doesn't seem to be on very good terms with be inducted, while he does nothing? I wouldn't exactly be thrilled either.

It's b/c he went on a crusade about the thing only to say I have better things to do once he got invited.

I like to think Pearl Jam pulled an awesome Larry David move though by only inviting him once they knew he wouldn't go.

We can only go on what he has actually said/written. What LV mentioned makes total sense but DA hasn't said that.

No, I have plenty of stuff to do. Pretty much only people with nothing to do will attend.

That was the jist.

The annoying thing is that Dave A. doesn't seem to understand that it wasn't the band's choice who got in with them.

Not quite. His fb rants seem to suggest he understands the workings of the hof but he believes that pj as a band should/would normally fight against an injustice like this.

And he put on a huge whine fest to the band about it. Pj did the classy thing and then he does that shit? Lol. He's been whining in the press for years. I still stand on the side of the band here.

He hasn't exactly made me sympathetic to his cause.
