Wife was up in Cleveland on business 10-15 years ago and her and a colleague were thinking about dropping by after work one day. Nope, closed at 5PM. WTF? It shouldn't even open before 5PM. Edited February 7, 20223 yr by davidg forgot what shitty town it is actually in
February 7, 20223 yr According to some, Cleveland is the greatest city ever. Actually it's not as bad as most people think, but it's still pretty fucking bad. But yeah, that the Hall closes at 5:00p has always cracked me up. Thursday nights are open late, but I would think that half the people in town for business would love to head over there in the evenings and check it out the other 4 nights of the workweek, but the 5:00p hard closing time is just bizarre. It's not like they're taking 1st graders through there on field trips in the morning, stretch that shit out man. Then again, I could easily spend 10-5 in there and still be hankering for more. Anyway, who's on next year's ballot?

Groups like Foreigner, Boston, Bad Company, Judas Priest, Motörhead, Iron Maiden, Grand Funk Railroad, seem to be HOF worthy yet of course they are but it will look silly if Dave Grohl inducts more than one bad a year. oh and TMWG

That being said, Lionel Richie is a musical genius and he and the Commodores should be in along with Pat Benatar and A Tribe Called Quest. Also, Underdog’s take on Carly Simon having the best Bond song is absolutely correct. Nobody does it better is great and a close second would be For Your Eyes Only. Older folks might go with something like Goldfinger but I digress. I'd have to vote for Live and Let Die but Nobody Does It Better is in the top 5 for sure.

That is all. Dolly with the "Wait, I'm nominated for the Rock n Roll HOF? you people are weird." fly-by. Awesome.
March 15, 20223 yr Somebody should just start a real one and start again from scratch honoring rock & roll music. Jan Wenner has no particular right to it, it's just his shitshow, like his shitty magazine, so wrong about so much.
