October 11, 2012, 11 years ago
Legendary DEEP PURPLE guitarist Ritchie Blackmore has commented about his former band's nomination in the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame.
"Personally, I couldn't care less," he tells Billboard. "I would never go. I'm not really a fan of that stuff. Considering some of the people that are in the Hall of Fame, I'm not sure if it's a good idea, so I don't care one way or the other, actually."
