The Replacements just got nominated for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Never in my wildest imagination would I ever think this would happen. Doubt they make it in, but just to be nominated says enough.
Rufus - The Replacements will be in immediately as will be the case with Nirvana. They're critical darlings and that matters big time.
This pretty much sums up the RRHoF. Even the rap groups get seemingly masturbatory respect in the "rock" HoF.
My ballot, if it counted for sh*t:
Nirvana
The Meters
Kiss
The Replacements
Linda Ronstadt

I really want to add more Cloud Cult to my collection. I've seen them perform live before; they have such energy and passion for playing, and it comes through in their music.Wonderful!!
Right now the latest from the Black Angels, Indigo Meadow. I think they've branched out quite a bit more here without losing their signature sound. Wonderful and one of the few records I've bought the past 12 months that didn't require a 2nd listen to be convinced.
I actually had this cd once. Great show. GREAT show.Pink Floyd - 9/13/94 Torino, Italy
Soundboard from great tour. Wish I had seen this more than once. Who knew they'd never tour again?
EDIT: **** this is great! Haven't listened to Floyd in a bit.
EDIT 2: FARKING EPIC!! I believe the siding on my house may have melted during David's Comfortably Numb solo.![]()
