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 Love�s 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.
