Calling the museum "urine in wine," punk legends The Sex Pistols have issued an official snub to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, refusing to turn up at their own induction next month - a defiant act which makes them hall of famers to their fans.
The band posted a handwritten statement, filled with spelling mistakes, on their website declaring, "We're not coming. We're not your monkeys."
The sneering statement continues: ""Next to the Sex Pistols, rock and roll and that hall of fame is a piss stain. Your museum. Urine in wine. We're not coming. We're not your monkeys. If you voted for us, hope you noted your reasons. Your anonymous as judges but your still music industry people. We're not coming. Your not paying attention. Outside the shit-stream is a real Sex Pistol."
The induction ceremony is scheduled for March 13 at the posh Waldorf Astoria Hotel in New York City.
