Steve Miller going HAM on the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame

I agree but it's spread like wildfire and now there's multiple music hall of fames for particular genres and songwriters. As a music lover, I find it a helpful medium to listen to and learn of influential artists that shaped rock but so many other great acts remain excluded that their work becomes either obscure or cultish. The induction ceremony is probably the most un-rock and roll idea ever cultivated imo.

I just like how he's presenting his current position on this "issue" like its tantamount to a national concern. I'm not a big fan of the "idea" of a rock and roll "institution" like this and anyone who is should be institutionalized. To its credit, it provides education to millenials about who the trailblazers were in the 50s, 60s and 70s to an extent.

That is the point I was driving at, yes.

One thing, in the context of hall of fames, that irks me about the induction ceremony is a lot of time these artists don't even get to choose who inducts them it's generally people chosen by the Hall. Another discrediting fact.
