Rock and Roll Hall of Fame 2010: No More Mr. Nice Guy.

The Stooges are nominees along with Metallica, RUN D.M.C., Jeff Beck and some other spags.  

Assuming they get in, I look forward to hearing Iggy's speech.  

Also, I hope everyone who voted for Aerosomith in 01 is voting for Run DMC.  For better or for worse, they resurrected their sorry-ass career in the 80s.  

And as for Metallica, yeah they suck ass now, but Puppets and Lightning still rule.  I wonder if they will invite Newstead to play.

The Stooges better get it.

Fuck, almost every band that cites Stooges got in.

[AFK]

Agreed.  Also Bon Jovi and Stevie Ray Vaughn were on the bubble and didn't make the ballot this year.  Personally, I'd trade SRV for Beck.

how does Stevie Ray NOT make the ballot?

[LMNO]

Because he was a glorified bar-band bluesman?




Although, since ZZ Top got in in 2004...  What the hell, right?

[AFK]

The music itself might not have been anything super special, but I dunno, I think he was a hell of a soloer.

every rock guitar god is a glorified bar-band bluesman, except for the handful that are wannabe neo-bachs. what's yer point?

I cannot think of ANYTHING to dispute this.

I remember when he died...Dad wasn't happy.

Helicopters are evil.

you know, if you put together an all-star "died in a helicopter/plane crash" band, it would rock pretty hard.

DUDE!

TITCM.

Time for some zombie rock!

As long as we don't get some sort of undead "Freebird" jam.

Lol, do you know how many fucking concerts I've worked and had to deal with the drunks on the barrier of the floor going, "PLAY FREEBIRD!" And it's like...a fucking Linkin Park show?   

Though I'd have to admit if LP ever for some strange reason attempted Freebird, I'd have to give them a golf clap.
