Rock N Roll Hall of Shame skips the Stooges again.

I went to the Rock hall in Cleveland once. It was pretty neat to see all the cool stuff they had. One big thing that bugged me though was the lack of Stooges and MC5 stuff and the fact that both bands have yet to be inducted. Well the Stooges just got denied again, just a week after Ron Asheton passed away. While I have no problem with the artists who will be inducted, I'm astounded that an organization calling itself the Rock N Roll hall of fame would not induct the Stooges or the MC5. I mean, how fucking stupid are those people? I heard that there are 600 people who vote on who to induct. Are they all retarded? Do they not understand that there would be no punk rock with out the Stooges, which means there wouldn't be modern Rock music as we know it today with out the Stooges? I really thought that they would make it in this year. Seriously fucking lame. I really think there should be some sort of protest during the ultra exclusive induction ceremony. Who the fuck do these people think they are anyway? Rock 'N' Roll isn't an exclusive thing and should never be. I'm boycotting the Rock Hall until they induct the Stooges and the MC5. Fuck whoever runs that piece of shit.

KHAAAAAAAAN!! R.I.P. #6 R.I.P.

Ricardo Montalban passed away today. As if that wasn't enough Patrick McGoohan passed away as well. Double lame. I'll be watching some Prisoner and Wrath of Khan tonight to honor the two actors.

Guitar Wolf are back, in Japan at least...

Guitar Wolf has finally returned from their extended hiatus, after 558 days of not performing. Apparently Seiji underwent hip surgery way back in Aug. of 2007 and they haven't played since then. They'll be performing Saturday April 4th, @ Hibiya Yagai Ongakudo (aka. Yaon). To bad that's in Japan. OH well. Hopefully this means they'll be coming back to tour the USA soon! Guitar Wolf is one of my favorite bands of all time. You can read my 2005 interview with them and the review of their last Detroit show over here at MCR.
