Former FOREIGNER drummer Dennis Elliott announced he won’t be attending the band’s induction into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame. In a Facebook post, Elliott explained that the event’s schedule was sent at the last minute, leaving him and his team frustrated, so they decided to stay home. He expressed disappointment, saying the timing was “totally unacceptable” after weeks of waiting for details.

Meanwhile, original band members Lou Gramm, Al Greenwood, and Rick Wills will attend the ceremony to accept the awards on behalf of Elliott and other members. The induction, featuring tributes from Sammy Hagar, Kelly Clarkson, and Demi Lovato, will take place on October 19 and air live on Disney+. An edited special will premiere on New Year’s Day on ABC.
