The induction of Guns N’ Roses into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in April gave us plenty to write about at the time. It was so controversial that, a month later, news is still coming out.

A couple names you may recognize said the decision was a mistake, and the crowd on Saturday night made their feelings known as well.

Rock and Roll Hall of Fame 2012 Induction Ceremony Delivers Thrills
The inductions of Guns N’ Roses, Donovan, and the Faces were hardly the only highlights from what was a memorable evening of celebration at the 2012 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremonies.
