That same criticism can be applied to most of the artists or bands up for nomination.

"She's Not There" is brilliant.

I quite like The Zombies. There's some literary nods in their works too ("A Rose for Emily"). If I had a problem, it's that they only had two studio albums in the 60s...and nothing until the 90s. There was no development as a band, and I would have loved to have seen them flourish as a prog band in the 1970s, go pop again in the 1980s, and do whatever in the 90s.

Oh well.

I should be in the rock and roll hall of fame?

Oh.

Rush already got inducted. It was amazing.



Alex Lifeson had the best speech.

I'd say Kansas belongs in the hall of fame, but they don't deserve to be in the same list as Guns 'N' Roses and Cheap Trick.

Because we haven't got the time and a word can't be gotten in edgewise.

Have you ever heard Tales from Topographic Oceans? That is my favorite album of all time.
