Wired.com posted an article about the merits of Rush and why they should be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
Here's my own opinion:
Sure, it would be great for Rush to get more respect from the music industry. But for a while now, I've started to think that even if they did get nominated, they should reject it. I'm not sure why Rush would want to join an organization like this. If the RRHoF wanted to nominate/induct Rush, it should have happened years ago. If they nominate/induct Rush now, it would only be for the RRHoF's benefit.
I know that we've all signed petitions to get the band in, but it seems like it's time to direct our energy elsewhere. I think Rush should have their own museum in Toronto, where it all started.
What do you think?
I agree with Andy, because for us, RUSH always be on top of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame...
ReplyDeleteTalking with ppl in Cleveland while visiting RRHoF, agreed that Rush shoulded be there, but like 25 years ago....
ReplyDeleteNow, is a benefit for the RRHoF but for Rush. Regards from PERU.
ESRB - That's interesting that people at the RRHoF agreed that Rush should be there. I know that Rush would probably graciously accept if they were inducted, but it just seems that they don't stand for the same things as the museum. Again, my two cents!
ReplyDeleteDid you like the RRHoF? I've never been there.
But wouldn't it be appropriate if RUSH got nominated for the class of 2012?
