Every year in SoCal we have the Metal Hall Of Fame Induction and Awards Show, usually in the lead-up to the NAMM show. The 2025 version held on January 23rd saw it moving to the Grand Theater, a really cool 1000 seat venue walking distance from Disneyland & the NAMM show in Anaheim.
The Metal Hall Of Fame was created 9 years ago by Pat Gesuado to honor the musicians, executives and other notables that contribute to the world of hard rock & heavy metal. This non-profit organization fills the void that exists with more mainstream events such as the Grammy and American Music Awards. This year’s event saw net proceeds from the gala being directed to LA Fire Victims. In fact one of the key honorees unable to appear was Poison drummer Rikki Rockett who was notified earlier in the day to be ready for a potential home evacuation due to another fire that had just popped-up.
As usual SLR Magazine was there to capture the event in the gallery below.
