Anyway... it's that time of year again. The time of year when the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame announces its latest nominees. This is a subject that tends to give me agita because of the iconic bands that are not yet in there. However, 2 glaring omissions will FINALLY get voted in: Deep Purple & KISS!! Deep Purple was nominated last year but did not get voted in... here's to that changing this year. I also think its absolutely ridiculous that it has taken this long to get KISS, one of the most widely known American rock bands EVER, on the ballot. There are some interesting bands on the list this year too...
- The Zombies- fantastic band from the 1960s, responsible for such hits as "She's Not There", "Time Of the Season", & "Tell Her No"
- Nirvana- hardly seems possible but yes... it's been 25 years
- Hall & Oates- I won't lie... I love these guys
- Linda Ronstadt
- Yes- '70s program rock legends
- Cat Stevens
- LL Cool J- always been a fan
That's not the entire list, but the rest are equally as varied. Very interested to see who gets in this year. One of my all-time favorites got in last year... RUSH!!!! It was especially cool to see Dave Grohl & Taylor Hawkins from Foo Fighters induct them. They are obviously huge fans & it showed!
So that's all for now from me. In the immortal words of Ben Folds, "If you're feeling small & you can't draw a crowd, draw dicks on the wall." \m/ (><) \m/
