Re: 2011 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Inductees and Snubs

Since "Rock and Roll" isn't a copyrighted thing, and since it's not officially affiliated with an organization, like the various sports halls of fame, I still hold by my idea I had last year. Someone should start a competing hall of fame that will not be agenda-based and tied into one magazine (Rolling Stone in this case). This new hall would obviously need a different name, due to copyright and legal stuff. I'm thinking "The Rock Hall." Anyway, this one would focus on ROCK alone, not country or rap (Sure, there's the Grand Ole Opry, but shouldn't there be a Rap Hall by now? Why stick them in the Rock Hall?). If the RnR HoF wanted to raise a stink about, a couple of lawyers threatening anti-monopoly lawsuits would quell that nonsense. The Rock Hall could do it right.

It's time to blow it up and start over.

Seriously! Moves are afoot to do just that over here in Europe. Watch this space. I hope something comes out of all the discussion.

That reminds me....I must get Skype working again or I might fall by the way-side.
