And The Rock & Roll HoF Inductors Will Be

[NashVegas]

Keith Richards - The Ronettes;
Velvet Revolver's Scott Weiland and Slash - Van Halen, and then perform a tribute to them because V-H isn't performing;
(teehee)

Eddie Vedder - R-E-M;
Zach De La Rocha - Patti Smith;
Jay-Z - Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five.

*sigh*

It really is a boys' club, isn't it? The only female to do an induction that I can recall was when Gwen Stephani inducted the Police - and that was all about her crush on Sting.

1. Can somebody grab Zach de la Rocha

and lock him in a room with the rest of RATM until they agree to a tour and five album deal?

[peekaloo]

2. It would have been more appropriate for Patti Smith & r.e.m. to introduce each other.

That IS funny about VH. :-)

3. I Agree

At least have Stipey induct Patti, you know? Or, how about having Natalie Merchant or Billy Bragg induct R.E.M.?

[Rabrrrrrr]

4. Wow - Eddie Vedder reduced to introducing REM.

I hope he takes a moment to punch the fuck out of Michael Stipe.

The so-called "Rock and Roll" hall of fame just gets lamer every year, which is pretty amazing considering how totaly fucking lame it was at its conception.
