Jann Wenner rot in hell...he prevented The Monkees from getting their due and putting them in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Everyone kept telling him to lose his grudge over not liking the fact that the band didn’t play their instruments for real on the TV show...really? In this day and age with half or more of pop artists lip syncing and not even playing instruments?
People have been telling him and the other voters...better get some of these older acts in now while they are all still alive and able to perform and or show up.
Now? It’s over and The Monkees are not in the hall of fame and if they are put in...it will be without their deserving leader there.
RIP Davy.
I agree. He is the main reason that "Rush" has not even been nominated despite the fact that they are 3rd all time in consecutive gold or platinum records.
His reasoning?
Wenner said, “RUSH are too good, too clean. Magazines can’t make any money on a band like that. What are they supposed to write about, the music?”
