So, when (not if) the Police are inducted into the R&R Hall Of Fame in 2003, who should have the honor of giving the (usually terrible) little speech? It's usually an artist who is a fan or who was influenced by the inductee. Bono comes to mind, but he's more of a peer than an underling. He's also inducted several people and I think the HOF is giving him a "breather." (Though I think he should have inducted the Ramones. He was a friend and true fan). And, IF the band plays together (not all bands do), which songs do you think they will play? The bigger bands usually get to do three songs. I'd put my money on: Roxanne Don't Stand OR Every Little Thing EBYT If you're interested in writing a letter to suggest the Police for 2003, here's an address I found. Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Foundation 1290 Avenue of the Americas New York, NY 10104 I think it's the right one. The letter can't just say, "Induct the Police, they are awesome." You have to spell out the significant impact you think they've had on music since their first album. WHY are they more deserving than other bands who are also eligible? (some bands have been trying for years to be selected). I don't think that will be too hard for any of us. Maggie
