'Raising Hell' with the Hall of Fame
Run-DMC and Metallica are the latest '80s acts to win nominations for the 2009 class of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, according to the latest news reports.
Other artists nominated include Bobby Womack, Jeff Beck, R&B band Chic, Wanda Jackson, Little Anthony and the Imperials, The Stooges and the California funk band War.
Not to take anything away from the latest nominees, but this means another year goes by without honoring Journey, Heart, Duran Duran and Kiss. What's going on up there in Cleveland anyway?
