Neil Diamond?!?! What's rock and roll coming to.........

Imagine, an award for people who don't play in a band???? That just them moving into a place where soon they can justify giving themselves some awards.

| | | Rush was inducted into the Canadian Music Hall Of Fame (which covers all styles of music) in 1994. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canadia...c_Hall_of_Fame
However, they are way overdue for the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame along with many others who deserve to be there more than some who have been inducted. I have no issues with the latest list of inductees. It is about time for Alice Cooper Band. Neil Diamond has quite a track record as a songwriter of big hits as well as a performer. |
