Rockin The Real Vote: Vote Rush For The RnR Hall Of Fame

I don't know why I've chosen to Blog about this! Maybe a huge supply of low flying Wizard Of Oz Monkeys decked out in Rock God uniforms have threatened to plop down a serious set of guitar bars and out of tune notes if I don't. Anything connected to the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame is a great reason to verbally Tae Kwon Do. There's more political nonsense taking place then a U.S. Presidential election! Don't be shocked if an out of control sudden release of black computer printer ink slips from the veins of over hyped R-N-R Fame talk. It's that time of year! Just like Back To School and Thanksgiving; the official unveiling of inductees is released unto the world to do nothing more than piss off the people that should be voting...fans and parents who had to put up with those fricken teenage years of cheap strings, pounded til they're thin drum heads and vocal chords that sound raspier than six shots of Jack Daniel kissing herbs and special spices. Judgment has never belonged to the innocence of an album cover. Just as much as I-Tune downloads and illegal uploads of your favorite metal on YouTube shouldn't harness a place in Hall of Fame history. Please don't go any further into this Blog. Not unless you've recently sniffed El-Marco pens, airplane glue or popped enough Sudafed to alert the Wal-Mart over the counter police. Basically meaning; again and again the allergic reaction to decisions made behind closed doors cannot be digested and or filtered through the human system without walking on thin white lines of escapisms. Why aren't there more fans of music frothing at the mouth over Cleveland's lack of supporting the name of their most famous building? Rock N Roll Hall of Fame is not this year's nominees Donna Summer, Randy Newman or Joan Jett and the Black Hearts. I hate myself for loving the Runaways! I love Rock N Roll was a sack of Pop Rocks required after nearly falling off a cliff designed by the makers of My Sherona and Rick Springfield's Jessie's Girl. Gene Simmons and KISS still can't get in. Tom Shultz and Brad Delp from Boston! Total no votes! The Hall should be based on the volume of bass shot from a stack of L-1 Bose tower speakers. At 50 I still crank the volume to piss off the neighbors! Oh wait! I get it...the Hall of Fame is about selling tickets to the front door. Then let's get some K-Tel masterpieces in there like Fox on the Run from Sweet, Radar Love by Golden Earring, Renegade by Styx and Carry On Wayward Son from Kansas. These are some of the biggest woofer blasters created by man! Not Le-Freak from Chic! I don't know maybe I should have another Starbuck's latte. I mean, it's not as bad as it could be. Deep Purple finally got a nomination. As did Procol Harum and Rush. The top vote-getters will be inducted on April 18th, 2013 at the Nokia Theater L.A. live in Los Angeles. The biggest and best news is for the first time, the public gets to vote alongside the artists, historians and music industry insiders of the Rock Hall voting body. Wait wait wait! They've already selected the nominees. Your vote comes in after they've already made the selection. Talk about sleeping in a Rock Star wanna-be's vomit! From now until December 3rd, fans can vote on RollingStone.com for the nominees they'd like to see inducted. The top five acts will comprise a "fan's ballot" that will count as one of the more than 600 ballots that determine the Class of 2013. The results will be announced in mid-December. Why don't fans of music vote for the nomination? How about the radio stations that played and continue to play the material that shaped an entire universe of, "Shut the F up my favorite song is on!" Vote for the 2013 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Inductees "The definition of 'rock & roll' means different things to different people, but as broad as the classifications may be, they all share a common love of the music," commented Joel Peresman, President and CEO of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Foundation. "This year we again proudly put forth a fantastic array of groups and artists that span the entire genre that is 'rock & roll.'" Rush have been eligible for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame since 1998, but this is their first time appearing on the ballot. Pioneering rap groups N.W.A and Public Enemy also both made the ballot in their first year of eligibility. If they are inducted, they will join fellow hip-hop acts Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five, Run-D.M.C. and the Beastie Boys in the Hall of Fame.
