Not one R&R in the new group. I think they are all dead by now. Change the name to Music HOF. Missy Elliot? Get out.

I remember when Fats Domino was inducted in 1986

One of the originals. Bill Haley, Frankie Avalon, Fabian, et al. I went to school 4 blocks from where Bandstand was televised. Kenny Rossi was friends with my brother and he and the gang used to come to our house and practice dance steps. Then the Beatles came and ruined everything.

I just knew you would get some Beatles hate into this thread
