Just another observation.

But why are some of the big rock ‘n’ roll bands or acts not in the Rock ‘n’ Roll Hall of Fame but every other musical style is inducted every year.

It seems like Rap is getting inducted more than the old rock ‘n’ roll bands. I can think of dozens of rock ‘n’ roll bands that should be in before, many of the other music genres get considered.

So what are some bands or acts that you think should be in that aren’t. Or some that are that shouldn’t be.

Foreigner, J.Geils Band ?

Altitude Sickness: Is THIS what you’re thinking about when you are on Safari???
Cape Buffalo about to charge and you’re wondering “why isn’t David Cassidy in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame?”. This thread is gonna cause my rifle to Jam !!
 
Now Beyoncé is doing country music. I never cared for any of her pop music but thought I'd better listen before I judged her singing country.

Beyoncé's "Texas Hold 'Em" is okay and within the country music genre. It is a little different but I can listen to it. At least it's not that rap turned country crap that Nashville is pushing now!

There is however a picture of her in a revealing outfit that I don't think would be allowed at the Grand Old Opry! I do like her look in a cowboy hat :)

Let's face it, the only constant in the universe is change.

MARK; She is a great talent, nice voice, and has a top notch “Marketing Machine” behind her…her cross over into the Western “He Haw” music open up a huge revenue $$ stream for her…. I’m Not use to seeing CowGirls with a metal shield covering their V—g-a but I guess we don’t really know what they wore 150 years ago.
 
Ask Ted Nugent about the Rock and Roll hall of fame, and why he was inducted.

Would that be minimal body armor. I have a carrier, never considered body armor there. maybe I should?
 
Beyoncé is beautiful AND talented and looks great mostly naked. But country isn’t what it used to be and when did you have to be in your underwear (or less) to make a video?! And I’ll give lizzo props, wicked talented and creative, NOT what I want to look at or really listen to, but yes talented.
As far as the hall of fame-I disagree with most of what gets in or doesn’t get in, but thats just me

Because they don't care what you, I, or any fan of rock n roll thinks. Witness the exclusion of Warren Zevon this year despite being one of the top three vote-getters in their fan's poll.
 
A better question is, when will Rock and Roll have it's own Hall of Fame?
 
Been wondering that for years. How in the world does a rapcrap bunch get in before a rocker? I can stretch the envelope some for Dolly being put in because she is Dolly Parton, dammit. But rap?

Have a look af our latest post on the biggest roan i ever guided on!


I realize how hard the bug has bit. I’m on the cusp of safari #2 and I’m looking to plan #3 with my 11 year old a year from now while looking at my work schedule for overtime and computing the math of how many shifts are needed….

I'd like to get some too.

My wife (a biologist, like me) had to have a melanoma removed from her arm last fall.

Hallo Marius- do you have possibilities for stags in September during the roar? Where are your hunting areas in Romania?
