Dick Dale isn’t in and he DID invent surf music and metal guitar and inspired Jimi Hendrix to take up playing the guitar.

Twisted minds think alike!

Yup, but mine's a little slower than yours.

Will Madonna accept her nomination with a British accent or a Michigan slang?

His politics will probably keep him out at least until Jann keels over.

“Amazing. John Cougar Mellowcrap is nominated and Buddy Holly isn’t in. That’s embarrassing, even for the recording industry.”

Actually, Buddy is in, but they left his Crickets (band) out. Ditto with Springsteen — he’s in, but the E Street Band is out.

“They deserve a hall all of their own. They’re still playing too.”

And they never made a penny off the song “Surfin Bird.” Damn those “O pa pa Ooo mow mow” guys!

Shhhh we aren’t supposed to notice how those statements about the Monkees “they don’t write their own songs”, “they don’t play their own instruments” were also true of Motown and many other hit machines.
