I'm glad The Ramones were accepted into it though. Too bad Joey wasn't alive to see it.

i e-mailed the r&r hof last year and told them to remove my name from their list.

the inclusion of abba over many more deserving groups was the last straw. until they are removed i will not step foot in the place. it is now a major joke

i may change my mind if rush gets in, but it isn't looking good yet
