The Beastie Boys were up last year, but didn't get in.

4. Metallica deserves it. |
|
Love them or hate them, they helped people take the heavy metal genre seriously.
I'm sure this thread will bring out the "Why isn't (insert wanky pretentious prog rock ban here) ever inducted??" crowd.

9. Bert's batting average was considerably lower than Beck's. |
|
Which is why I attend Beck concerts with a sign that says "Circle Me Beck!"
He never does though.

22. I Saw Stevie Ray Open For Beck |
|
Edited on Tue Jan-13-09 08:12 PM by Crisco
He had about 20 pedals and played the thing behind his back. I was entertained.
Then Beck came out. He had three pedals. And blew SRV out of the room.

8. Rush was accidentally elected to the baseball hall of fame yesterday |
|
Geddy, Alex, and Neal will be joining Jim Rice and Ricky Henderson in Cooperstown.
Their old friend Warren Cromartie was passed over yet again, though.

12. Blame it on their manager |
|
Ray Danniels is one of the biggest pieces of shit in the music industry. He's destroyed every band he's ever worked with EXCEPT for Rush, and that's probably why nobody in the Hall of Fame will consider them, because they would have to go through that asshole to set it up.
I don't know how Rush puts up with him, honestly.

20. Will a death finally get The Stooges in? Will the Cure be passed over yet again? |
|
Edited on Tue Jan-13-09 06:48 PM by Adenoid_Hynkel
No offense to Run DMC - I've seen them live. They're great, but shouldn't Iggy Pop be recognized first in a Rock and Roll Hall of Fame before they branch out into rap?
