Responding to fan questions on Twitter, Megadeth's Dave Mustaine said yesterday that he is not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame because the institution is opposed to him.
After a fan tweeted that it's long overdue for Megadeth to be in the Hall of Fame, Mustaine replied: “I think the Rock Hall opposes my presence there. It’s on my bucket list before I die: The R&R HOF and a Grammy .
When a fan replied that Mustaine deserved both awards, the musician responded: “Thank you. I just wish they felt the same way you did. I’m there because of the Met in a way. But I wish Meg had gotten in!”
Megadeth has been nominated for a Grammy 11 times and has never won. The band is nominated this year for the title track from their latest album, "Dystopia," in the Best Metal Performance category.
UPDATE (February 13, 2017): Dave Mustaine fulfilled one of his dreams by winning a Grammy this year .
