A Challenging Quiz

My friend Malcolm challenged me to take the latest quiz on his blog, its about the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.  I think I failed, it was tough!  I know that many of you (myself included) are not to fond of the RRHOF because its just plain silly who they nominate each year, but those feelings aside, I challenge you to take the quiz over at "Pop Culture Dish".   Its a good one!

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED to read!!!!

You have to go over to Seano's blog today, Circle of Fits, and read what his friend Sadler Vader had to say about rock and roll music.  Its his commentary on the state of music today inspired by watching some of the greats last night on RRHOF's concert.  I think he's right on.  (bummer that it was on HBO, what a rip for those of us with budgets that don't allow that channel)

On a sad note...just updated the post on Ronnie James Dio, he has stomach cancer :(
