i dont think so, which i dont agree with. when the band ended he was an official member

chad channing was supposed to go in but then gene simmons threw a hissy fit and the hof folks changed their mind

would have been cool to see pat (and dale crover, now that i think about it) inducted but oh well
Anyway why is Nirvana in already?  What about the Cure and Depeche Mode?  They pre-date Nirvana by quite a bit and are much better bands with much bigger catalogs.  Rock n Roll of fame is a joke.
Wait look at all these acts that aren't in: T-Rex, ELO, Duran Duran, Carpenters, Harry Nillson, The Jam, The Smiths, Jim Croce, The Monkees, Roxy Music, Siouxsie and the Banshees, B-52's.

Looks like the skipped every band from the 80's from the UK.  Yet this year they have Linda Rondstadt and Peter Gabriel????

i'm enjoying trolling them



It's funny that they say that they've tried to contact The Fall but so far no success. No reply is necessary; the problem will take care of itself. These guys might get a few gigs around KC but nowhere else. They would probably have trouble getting recordings pressed, and none of the digital services will take them with that name. If they're at all serious they'll change their name soon.


Change has come.
Why do you all care who is inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame?  Does it really matter? 

Wait - you are the same lot who think they can do a better job running baseball teams and picking Oscar winners; never mind - carry on.

GASP

I don't watch action movies.  I would rate wrestling below that.

This is actually a fantastic burn but you didn't direct it at the right poster. Still awesome.

It might be a fantastic burn if the poster didn't drive to New Orleans to watch a wrestling match. 
Atomic, why are you obsessed with what I enjoy?

Now back on topic… What is this?
http://www.washingtoncitypaper.com/bestofdc/poll/artsandentertainment/2014/best-place-to-see-local-music

People voted 930 Club on Washington City paper as… Best place to see local music?  It deserves the best music venue spot, but best place to see local music?  I am not being a hater, just being real.  Look at the list of bands that are playing the 930 Club over the next few months.  The most "local" it gets are a couple from Baltimore, the rest are from anywhere else.  Maybe the people who voted didn't understand the category.  930 Club does host local bands every now and then, but still.  I am surprised it wasn't voted "best outdoors venue."

that is funny. A few years back here in Richmond, Style Weekly did their annual poll and The National won best large venue, best small venue, and best venue to see local music. I chalk it up to being the only venue people who lived out the suburbs could name.
i think the club also wins the cutest owner, award, as well . . . or maybe that in my dreamed award ceremony with finger sandwiches and punch, thread.
