    Until Dr. Hook and the Medicine Show is enshrined, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame doesn't exist to me.

    Upon further review, the Stooges might get in simply because Iggy Pop is still alive. Call it a Lifetime Achievement Award.

    Would Phil Spector show if the Ronettes get in?

    Can DLR do all that while staring at himself in the mirror? Or while applying Rogaine?

    And while I'm biased abour REM, I can tell you that the guys are still outstanding. I'd love to see Berry come back for the performance like he did recently at the Georgia hall of fame.

    Good point there and although Grandmaster Flash and Furious Five are pioneers in their genre, I don't know if their output or influence is big enough for Hall induction.

    Finally, something we agree on.

    They should be in for "I got stoned and I missed it" alone.

    Great call. And "I call that true love" would be a close second.

    What I also found great about them was they could do serious ballads and the really fun goof-ball songs.

    If you happen to play guitar, I've tabbed out a few of their early songs.

    I think 'The Message' reamins the best and most important song of the hip-hop genre.
    In fact, I was pitching an idea about it to documentary film maker during the spring.

    Yeah, thank God we'll be able to watch it on the Prancing Billy Jumbotron at SportsJournalists.com Stadium.

    On the other hand, it might only last 8 seconds before the various VH personalities meltdown on stage.

    The Stooges should have made it in at least ten years ago.
