The Music Thread...

You could say Dolly isn't a rocker. I guess. If you were being a shithead.

Pat Benatar is the only real rocker on that list honestly. Eminem is the most egregious probably though.

Honestly it would really change things if they just called it the Music Hall of Fame. Then everyone is fair game. Let someone else do Rock and start over from scratch and make it make sense.

I'm done with that shit. Zero respect. No Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, UFO, and countless others, but Dolly mfn Parton and Eminem? Flush.

It should be the Pop Music Hall of Fame.

Let's call it what it is. And a lot of it, really wasn't music.

It was marketing, video, etc.

If you want to talk about music, you narrow down a shit ton of the current members.

I highly recommend Alper as a Twitter follow.

But I think it is a bot. It is far too spot on and timely.

I had read while back about Hawkins OD'ing several years ago, so this is no big surprise.

George Strait is only considered the king of country music because this guy couldn't stay off the bottle.
