London, Jan 7 (PTI) Former Yes star Rick Wakeman has agreed to join his ex-bandmates at their Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction after officials agreed to honour late rocker Chris Squire at the bash.
The keyboard player recently insisted he would not be at the April bash in New York, stating he'd attend "under no circumstances", but it appears he has had a change of heart, reported Contactmusic.
In a new statement posted on his website, he wrote: "I am very pleased to announce that as the Hall of Fame have now agreed to present Chris Squire's wife with a posthumous award acknowledging his massive contribution, I have agreed to attend the Induction ceremony in New York to both stand proudly with my fellow band mates Jon (Anderson) and Trevor (Rabin) and also to watch Chris' wife Scottie collect this well deserved award on his behalf.
"I also hope that this move to acknowledge members of bands who sadly did not live to receive their own honour, means they can get them posthumously in the future.
