Love hates the idiotic Rock Hall of Fame

We have a long tradition here at antiMUSIC
of deriding the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame for being out of touch. When rock
greats Black Sabbath, AC/DC, Lynyrd Skynyrd and Patti Smith were passed
over for induction in the class of 2001, we like so many fans were angry
but not surprised. It appears we are not alone in our outrage. According
to the New York Times, Courtney Love has demanded that the museum return
all memorabilia belonging to her and Kurt Cobain.
Love sent the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame
a telegram demanding the return of these items after she became enraged
by the exclusion of artists like AC/DC, Lynyrd Skynyrd and Patti Smith.
While Loves talent as a singer is open
to debate, you can always be sure she will let her opinions be known. In
the angry telegram Love is said to have told the Hall of Fame the following:"How
dare you fools not put Lynyrd Skynyrd, Patti Smith, or AC/DC in your Hall
of Fame," Courtney raged, "Damn you to the darkest belly of the underworld."
"Any of my stuff you stole, I want back
immediately. This includes any of mine or Kurt's clothes, guitars or debris
that you scavenged for. I hope that no one I know is ever inducted into
your idiotic 'Hall of Fame.' "
There has been no official response from
the Rock Hall as of this report.
