All of us have probably wondered, from time to time, how an idea as intuitively awesome as a rock and roll hall of freakin’ fame went so very, very bad. Part of the answer is obvious enough: money. We’re talking about an industry that attracts more soulless whores than a pimp convention and the world would surely be a better place had Jann Wenner been smothered in his crib. But one can’t escape the feeling that it’s even more complex than that. In short, for a project to get this fucked, you really need the involvement of true believers with no brains and a tractor-trailer full of righteous intentions.

    • It's a safe bet that maybe half the artists in the RRHoF would just as soon not be there or, more correctly, they wish the damn thing just didn't exist at all. Just bulldoze the place and let's move on. For the good guys it was always about the music. Sure, they want to be recognized for their work and they deserve the financial freedom to continue to be creative, but that's as far as it goes. The rest is just culturally embarrassing bullshit.
