Saw a playlist of R&R HOF snubs on Wolfgang's Vault (including Yes, of
course). What suprised me is that Stevie Ray Vaughn, Todd Rundgren
and, to a lesser extent, Steve Miller are not in the hall either. SRV
and Todd seem to be the kind of musicians acceptable to the East Coast
Wennerites.

No need to bring up the East Coast. Jann Wenner and his cocksucking
sycophants would be assholes no matter where they lived.

Well, then at least they'd *just* be assholes, rather than assholes
*and* cocksuckers.

I'm not a big fan of Moody Blues, but it's more amazing that they are
not in the RnRHOF, and since they seem to like dead rock stars you are
right that SRV's absence is surprising (ref: Richie Valens). I love
Todd R, but I doubt it will happen. Now that Genesis is in maybe Yes
will in a year or two?

OK, then. The Global Wennerite Cabal of Cocksucking Assholes.

A couple of years ago, Joel Selvin, a long-time San Francisco music
writer and no friend of prog, gave up his R&R HOF voting privileges
precisely because of the Jann Wenner Cabal and the fact that acts such
as Yes, Genesis (solved now but most likely due to the Collins
factor), Steve Miller, Chicago, et. al. were explicitly never
considered for induction. So if even an anti-prog writer can see the
politics and think them unfair, then, yes: they are cocksuckers AND
assholes.

I'm glad I DUMPED rock and roll awltogether so none of this applies to me. I
couldn't give two shits one way or the other. If you were Enlightened you
wouldn't even be mentioning this nonsense in my Presence.

Rock and roll is the cock-sucker. Classic rock is the asshole. Maybe you're
getting warm now.

Anyone who likes classic rock and/or rock and roll is an asshole.
