Sex Pistols 'piss on' US Hall of Fame

Punk band the Sex Pistols have refused to attend their own induction into the US Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

In a handwritten note posted on their website, they called the institution 'urine in wine'.

The note further criticised the Hall of Fame for offering "fame at $25,000 if we paid for a table or $15,000 to squeak up in the gallery".

'We're not your monkeys, we're not coming. You're not paying attention,' continued the statement.

A Hall of Fame representative said each inductee gets two free tickets, with additional ones costing $2,500 (£1,432).

Pistols lead singer Johnny Rotten once famously derided the rock 'n' roll institution as "a place where old rockers go to die", dubbing it the "Rock and Roll Hall of Shame".

hahaha! No future.
