Original member of Chicago Peter Cetera, who left the band in 1985 after a desire to pursue a solo career, will not partake in the band’s Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction this April.

As Stereogum reports, Cetera took to his blog to share a letter he wrote to the Rock Hall stating that he is “frustrated and tired of dealing with this and it’s time to move on.”

Read the full letter below.

I just sent this to the RnR hall of fame people. This is the the short high road nice version of what I really wanted to say. I’ll post that response at the appropriate time. Ciao,

Hello Alex and Joel!

Unfortunately, this scenario doesn’t work for me. I know we all did our best to make it happen, but I guess it’s just not meant to be.

Personally, I’m frustrated and tired of dealing with this and it’s time to move on. I have a life with two beautiful daughters and a solo career and its time to get back and give them all the full attention they deserve.

Thanks for all your help and consideration! Have a great show and please send any individual award I receive to the contact you have for me.

All the best, Peter Cetera
