This weekend the latest induction ceremony for the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame will take place at the Rock Hall in Cleveland, and it turns out 2009 inductees Metallica's Hall performance will be a two-bassist affair. Yes, surprisingly, onetime bass-slinger Jason Newsted--who replaced original deceased bassist Cliff Burton in 1986, and left Metallica in 2001 to play with Ozzy Osbourne, Voivod, and reality-TV supergroup Rock Star Supernova--will be appearing with Metallica at the ceremony this weekend, along with current 'Tallica bassist Robert Trujillo. "I felt strongly they should go as that band [with Trujillo] and represent because...they're strong right now together," Newsted told Reuters. "There was no negativity, no hubbub or jealousy or silly, childish...It was years ago, man. We're just gonna have a...great celebration." And rockers everywhere will surely celebrate with them.
