He was once interviewed on radio here in Toronto and was asked about the Hall of Fame. He said it represented a side of country music that he did not identify with. Remember the opening of the new Opry House with Richard Nixon spinning a yo yo with Roy Acuff? And leading the cast in "God Bless America". This is what John was reacting to.
