Would be fun if the acceptance speech were done by Joyce because Morrissey and Marr didn't want to share a podium. Or if Morrissey did a gothic romance acceptance speech. But seriously, I hope they get in this time, even if the concept of a Hall of Fame is rather cheesy.
Since we, the public, can cast a vote, I suggest we all do! http://rockhall.com/voting/2016-rock-and-roll-hall-of-fame-nominees-vote/
Smiths currently in 12th place.
Janet Jackson is in 1st place. WTF?
What are all of the rankings so far or where is a link to view it. Just curios but yeah I'm not to surprised among that list that Janet is number one.
