Rock Hall of Fame Inductees announced

Looks like it's gonna be a good March show! The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame announced its 2010 Inductees -
The Stooges (Iggy & the late 60s drug users)
The Hollies (Best rock harmonies ever?)
ABBA (Swedish popmeisters)
Jimmy Cliff (rhymes with spliff, but did it rock?) and
Genesis (only worth it if Gabriel shows up)

No love for KISS - You think Gene Simmons will be PO'd....?

From the Village Voice blog: The Stooges, who patiently rocked behind Iggy while beer bottles flew at the Michigan Theater in the late 60s and early 70s, have been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Rendering the honor bittersweet is guitarist Ron Asheton's death earlier this year, and music in general.
Also inducted as performers: the Hollies (originally featuring Graham Nash, who is "honored"; auteurs of odd pop songs like Stop! Stop! Stop!, Bus Stop and The Air That I Breathe); prog-rock pioneers Genesis; Jimmy Cliff, best known for The Harder They Come; and the dancing Swedes of ABBA.
