        Two strands of market lights in our back yard were ripped out of the brick of our house where they were attached by a windstorm. Broken glass all over the deck, drain tile rocks, grass, and driveway. It is going to be an overwhelming set of chores to make the back yard remotely safe for the dog and us and I feel there will be inevitable issues. What a huge bummer. Shatterproof market lights next time (honestly they probably should all be at least for outdoors).

        Think it, be it.

                    @mclaincausey bummer man, sorry for your trouble. Funny you mention those lights though, i just hung a bunch around the perimeter of our back yard along the wood line. I do worry about them getting taken out by sticks in the wind but now i'm def glad they're not glass. Govee brand or something, with an app to change colors and stuff. They lack the charm of incandescent glass bulbs but the gimmicks are cool.

                      @mclaincausey That does sound properly annoying.

                        I’m sure I’ve said this before but why is Sonic Youth not in the R&R HOF? This makes zero sense. Soundgarden and The White Stripes before Sonic Youth?!?!

                          @Matt seems like something they would turn down if offered

                          But im with you - they should at least be given the right to turn it down

                              It’s pretty much a “Pay to Play” kind of deal. These days it’s getting filled with tossers who have nothing to do with Rock and Roll anyway.

                                RRHOF is worth visiting if you find yourself in Cleveland, but I have no respect for the organization beyond the museum. Just a self appointed steward of greatness in “rock and roll “ that doesn’t have the focus (would be better characterized as “popular music” HOF), historical literacy (eg omissions such as the Mississippi Jook Band who arguably recorded the first “rock and roll” riffs), or taste and historical context (Sonic Youth, King Crimson, The Meters, I think Zevon is still snubbed, etc) to warrant that role.

                                They can fuck all the way off.

                                Think it, be it.

                                  I agree with most of all this. I don’t respect the Hall nor do I believe SY would accept but lots of people have declined their invites and SY should be among them.

                                    If you held a gun to my head and told me I had to go into the RRHOF,I’d tell you to pull the fucking trigger. They should be ashamed of themselves for what they did. If I can find Steve Millers post press conference I’ll post it.

                                    How about this one.

                                      @Jett129 Really interesting to here a legend's perspective on being treated like a mere commodity under the guise of something that presumes to be prestigious.
