Watched the 1980 CT show in Jersey the other night on the you tube...what a great band they were in the day..

[DONNIEP]

Maybe during the jam at the end of the show NWA and Cheap Trick can play Fuck The Dream Police!

Blasphemy!!!

[chefcraig]

How in the fuck can NWA get in and Chaka Khan didn't???? NWA was just one more filthy mouthed rap group in a sea of filthy mouthed rap groups! No talent and stupid fucking "songs" that sound like the lyrics were written by 13 year olds. You wanna listen to some bad ass black dude rap? Pop in some Ice T. Wanna listen to bad ass dirty rap? Pop in some Afroman!

Besides - young Chaka wearing those tight bell bottoms and Indian feathers is enough to make my zipper bust open! Damn that chick was hot! Good lord, you give me the young Chaka and I'd take her this Sunday and sit on the front row of my conservative Southern Baptist Church and kiss her on the cheek in front of every Honkie there!

NWA...that shit ain't even worth listening to! And how the hell are the Go Go's not in the Hall??? The first chick band to write their own songs and play their own instruments AND they were drunk dirty little whores. It doesn't get any more rock n roll than that!!

Agreed, bro...dig this.

[DONNIEP]

Agreed, bro...dig this.

Yeah, that chick is fine! She's so hot she could make a redneck quit the Klan!

Rufus was a bad ass band. They're still not in the hall either. You watch those guys live - that band is locked the fuck in! Plus the brothers look cooler than Shaft. Hell, even the Honkies in the band look cool as hell - and that's kinda hard to do when you've got two black guys up there!

And yet NWA gets inducted. There ain't nothin even remotely cool about those guys!

Had that 45 when I was a kid. Don't think my dad liked the record very much.

The RRHOF is a fucking joke.

True. But what else are we gonna argue about?

[DLR7884]

Bring up a topic.

I'm in.

OK...lesbian tennis players (or other female athletes) from the 70's and 80's...why were the non-athletic chicks in Penthouse magazine so much more hotter, for simply laying about by a pool?

Because no matter what the paedophiles dictating the fashion & what we should like ever since the 70s tell us, us men, REAL men, like supple, yielding flesh with lots of curves & a whole lotta meat in the right places to get a good hold of.

Not overly muscular or ultra-thin bodies with the bones popping out. That's gay.

I agree...it would be like a Silvester Stallone /Martha Stewart combination of a horrible holiday food fest special.

Ugghh...I can just barely imagine the tv show...can you even fathom the guest stars?
Yup, whomever is still standing from the Rocky movies, plus (for no apparent reason) some odd folks from "Happy Days" and "Laverne And Shirley".


Man, I am so glad I borrowed the "Grantchester: Season One DVD" , plus loaded up on vodka bottles fer this dubious holiday weekend.

Peter Cetera teases Chicago reunion at Rock and Roll Hall of Fame ceremony

CLEVELAND, Ohio – The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is a time to celebrate some of the greatest musical acts of all-time. It's also a chance for artists who haven't been in the spotlight for a while to milk it for all it's worth.

Former Chicago bassist/singer Peter Cetera has been teasing his involvement, or lack thereof, with the band at April's Induction Ceremony in New York City since late last year. Cetera has used speculation on whether or not he'll perform to drive fans to his website.

On Sunday, Cetera posted that he'd be stopping by the "Mark in the Morning" radio show in Los Angeles Monday to reveal his decision on the Induction Ceremony. Yet, it was all one big tease.

"Well, you know what?" Cetera said when asked about if he'll perform with Chicago. "I am going to reserve any comments on that until tomorrow."

Thus, fans can expect confirmation on whether or not Cetera will hit the stage at the Barclay's Center on April 8 to come via his website Tuesday. For the record, the current members of Chicago have said they're open to playing with Cetera.

Cetera famously left Chicago in 1985 to pursue a solo career. While he tried to set up a touring schedule similar to the one Phil Collins had with Genesis, the rest of the bandmembers declined. Jason Scheff replaced Cetera.

As a founding member of Chicago, Cetera performed on some of the band's biggest hits, including "25 or 6 to 4," "Saturday in the Park," "Hard to Say I'm Sorry" and "If You Leave Me Now." He also scored a few solo hits like "Glory of Love" and "The Next Time I Fall" (with Amy Grant).

Cetera's potential performance with Chicago would be one of the more anticipated events at April's Induction Ceremony, considering Chicago won a controversial fan vote by a wide margin.

I expected Pete would probably sing with them at the show. But it's not a reunion without Terry Kath, and sorry, I can't send him back up.
