I've got my own Hall of Fame with all my favourite artists already in it. I call it "My Record Collection ©". I'd invite them all to do a two song set whenever I "inducted" them (or bought the record, same diff) but I doubt any would come

But yes, I don't need this HoF

I love that reply, Feldy. I have a pretty awesome RRHOF and CHOF myself

That's hilarious Feldster!! Magic, Those are the 2 bands who really deserve to be in there.

It's weird with J Geils though because once the Freeze Frame album w/ "Centerfold" came out it's like their past career was forgotten (I guess "Love Stinks" still was popular but still whenever J Geils is mentioned on TV it's always for Centerfold & Freeze Frame). Nothing against the Freeze Frame Stuff but songs like "House Party" , "I Musta got Lost", "Give it to Me","First I look at the Purse (Live)","Did You No Wrong","Detroit Breakdown","Love-itis", "Surrender", & "Sanctuary" all cracked the US Top 30 singles. "Give it To Me" peaked at #30 & the rest were all in the top 12 singles. J Geils Band definitely should be in there & I won't even mention the 101 reasons Alice Cooper should be in there!

I think LL Cool J was nominate last year (or maybe the year before) and didn't get in so we'll just see.

One thing's for sure though, Alice deserves it more than all of the other nominees.
