Iron Maiden frontman Bruce Dickinson doesn’t care that his band hasn’t made it into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

The singer told the Jerusalem Post he wants no part of the Hall of Fame and would refuse a nomination.

“I'm really happy we're not in there and I would never want to be there,” Dickinson said. “If we're ever inducted, I will refuse — they won't bloody be having my corpse in there.”

Dickinson continued: “Rock and roll music does not belong in a mausoleum in Cleveland. It’s a living, breathing thing, and if you put it in a museum, then it's dead.

“It's worse than horrible, it's vulgar."

Dickinson said when he called the Hall “an utter and complete load of bollocks” last month, the comment was misinterpreted as a complaint that Iron Maiden wasn't inducted.
