Kid Rock to induct Van HALEN into the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame??

The following was posted by Vince "Hamburger Head" Garcia over at VH Links. He didn't cite his source for the information, so take it however you want.....

as posted by Vince G. at VH Links

Springsteen is inducting Patti Smith, Bono is inducting REM, Kid Rock is inducting Van Halen, LL Cool J or Puffy is inducting Flash & The Furious Five (source wasn't sure), and Beyonce is inducting the Ronettes.

Most of these seem like logical choices. Kid Rock did have his "DLR wannabe" phase (before he tried to turn country) but I still think Henry Rollins would do a much better job.

I dig Kid Rock, he has a DLR-like attitude, but thats beside the point

Kid Rock is a fan of Early Van Halen, his music some what again, exhibits the attitude of roth back in the day. Also, I believe at one point he Said he cranks up RWTD in his Caddillac.

I have no problems with the dude inducting Roth and VH, as long as he doesn't try and give props to the hagar era.

lol, This is auctually funny, My friend has sugguested constantly that kid rock should've been the lead singer of van halen in 1998-1999 instead of Gary Cherone, and I think it auctually would've been a nice fit.

This is where we find out if Kid is really Dave's lovechild.
They did have the midget thing and the look in common.
God please don't let him do a duet!!!!

They can do better than that.

Vinny Paul would be a good choice,I think.

WOAHYEAH

Can you picture Kid Rock doing Dance the Night Away?

Kid rock is in career meltdown.
He is a fucking talentless piece of shit!

I reckon as this new VH line up is all about ED then ED will get some guitar players or player to say what an influence he was on him etc etc

I doubt that...

Edward is afraid of people, especially guitar players...

As far as Dave and Kid having a look in common ??

What the hell ??

Kid Rock looks like a red-neck from the movie Deliverance...

Yup. The Section 8 version of Dave.
Without the athletic ability.
Or the voice
And a pimp hat.

Dude , you hit the nail on the head there. Van Halen meant the world to the Abbott brothers. I agree Vinnie would be the right choice , hands down.

Kid Rock was busy beating off to Kool Mo Dee when Van Halen was big. Fuck him.

It's been my belief since the announcement was made that Zakk Wylde and Vinnie Paul should induct VH.

Great news! Kid Rock is one of the few performers under 40 that I can get into. His live shows are fantastic.

Henry Rollins!! Are you fucking high? Everything that comes out of that guy's mouth is pretentious bullshit. He's the Kevin Smith of music if you can call the crap he makes music. By the way Rollins and Smith both suck enormous ass!!

Zakk? The guy's a buffoon who thinks his band is a bike gang...:lol:

Fuck Gene $immon$!

As much as he wanted to help VH, he had his own agenda. STEALING EDDIE !
Think about it. If he had managed to actually persuade Ed to join Ki$$ we might have never had CVH......

Fuck Chaim Witz !!!:fucku:

Howard Stern would be a much better choice.
No other well-known person has as much coincidental history with Van Halen - besides the actor that played "Schnider" on One Day At A Time(who also slept with Valerie).

Van Halen were a way of life, and were "the peoples' choice", much like Stern. Just as Howard never won a single award for radio, despite crafting the entire medium of modern day talk radio and being a catalyst for reality tv/radio, Van Halen will NEVER win a Grammy, despite their sound and spirit forging an entire decade's worth of music and spawning one immitator after another.

Howard is the obvious and perfect choice, and would be a refreshing departure from the TIRED R&R H/F cliche of having a vaguely simlar, younger, shittier, shadow of the musician(s) being inducted induct the awardee.

Long story short, Kid Rock BLOWS. I mean, if it's him, why not Poison?? They are the same damn thing.

Rollins and Bob Ritche are from different genres.They may be fans,but not from the same cloth as VH.If Kid "I tasted Tommy Lee's pecker"Rock shows up, it will be for attention.

Besides Vinny, Uncle Ted would be my next choice.

I like the idea of Pete Townsend (personal history aside). He once had a quote along the lines of "Every rock and roll band that comes after Van Halen should pay them a royalty fee."

Apparently he and Roger Daltrey are fans. Someone with their credibility would be cool.

Gene Simmons would be good - didn't Eddie approach him about joining the band in '83 and Gene said no? That's what he said in his book.

funny thing about gene would be that he desperately waits for a KI$$ induction :D

Pete Townshend Arrested By U.K. Police In Pedophilia Investigation

01/13/2003 6:00 PM, Yahoo! Music
Bruce Simon

(1/13/03, 6 p.m. ET) -- Pete Townshend was arrested Monday (January 13) at his London home after British police searched the house in an ongoing pedophilia investigation. The Who leader was taken into custody and was being held at a police station in southwest London on suspicion of possessing and making indecent images of children and of incitement to distribute such images, a Scotland Yard spokesperson told the BBC.

Townshend and his attorney told reporters that they had met with Scotland Yard representatives earlier on Monday, and had invited the police to go through the guitarist's home. Four detectives and a number of uniformed officers, including computer forensics specialists, arrived at the location at 3 p.m. local time with a search warrant and began going through the house while Townshend was being interviewed. A second address, described as a business location, was also searched with a different warrant. Townshend was taken away by police about four-and-a-half hours later.

A Scotland Yard spokesperson was quoted as saying, "(Townshend) has been arrested under the Protection Of Children Act Of 1978 on suspicion of possessing indecent images of children, suspicion of making indecent images of children, and on suspicion of incitement to distribute indecent images of children...A number of items, including computers, have been removed from the residential address for forensic examination."

Townshend has admitted visiting a handful of Internet child-pornography sites and using his credit card to enter one, after two U.K. newspapers said a famous English rock star was under investigation, although he wasn't specifically named. The guitarist, who is married and a father, claims he was doing research for his upcoming autobiography, and that the book will include a claim of sexual abuse between the ages of five and six-and-a-half years old while he lived with his maternal grandmother (the alleged abuse came from a male friend of his grandmother's).

In an interview with the British tabloid The Sun published before he was taken into custody, Townshend said, "Part of my story is about a young man who helps to invent a specially powerful version of the Internet to raise spiritual awareness by using music. At heart I think the Internet is a wonderful thing. But it is allowing child porn to be circulated freely around the world, crossing borders, allowing laws to be ignored, and there are real children behind the images, children like I was."

Townshend continued, "I am not making any excuses. I am angry about child porn on the Internet, and deeply wounded at the inference that I might be a pedophile. I have looked at child porn sites maybe three or four times in all, the front pages and previews. But I have only entered once using a credit card and I have never downloaded. With hindsight it was very foolish, but I felt so angered about what was going on, it blurred my judgment...I have never purchased any forms of child pornography or wished to own any...I was stupid to try to deal with my anger about child porn on the Internet alone. We must try to stop it but if we can't do that we should invest our energy in helping victims of abuse."

The guitarist went on, "I saw the first awful photo by accident. It repelled me and shocked me to my very core. I was not breaking the law at the time. This was in the winter of 1996-1997. It was then illegal to download, which I did not do, not to search and view. I did not think using a credit card was illegal either at the time. As a public figure I would never have given details had I known I would be breaking U.K. law. I need to regain the trust of police and authorities involved in protecting children to continue to use my energies and determination to help what they do...Chasing after people like Gary Glitter (who's been convicted on child porn charges) is important, and it is important that the police are able to convince themselves that--if I did anything illegal--I did it purely for research. I am not a pedophile."

Townshend said he supported Operation Ore, the British investigation into child pornography, and that he never expected to be questioned on the subject: "Foolish of me, but not arrogant. I sincerely believed that the police would know my history as someone who works tirelessly to help the abused, and that since 1978 I have run a charity which has contributed millions to organizations working to prevent violence and abuse."

He went on to say that he's prepared to give up his musical career. "I want to live my life, enjoy my family, and continue with my work," Townshend said. "But if all I can do from now on is fight the sexual abuse of children, and to help those who become victims--well, that wouldn't be too bad a way of living the rest of my life."

fuck Kid Rock

and his stupid lame act.

He should inducting the rap shit since that is his bag anyway. I heard he inducted Bob Seger and I could taste vomit in the back of my throat festering up. Besides, he ain't no kid. Just a lame douche bag rap/rocker fuckface crying over Tommy Lee leftovers. Fuck him and his hack act.

Carmen Appice should induct them since Cactus was inspirado for VH. Anyone but that fucktard Kid Rock.
