    Sorry, this isn't The Rap & Cuss hall of fame. .... I think those dudes showed no class.

    Steve Perry: "Are you fucking shitting me? Any singer would give his ass for that shit." Class, or no class?

    Rick Wakeman (YES) was a riot. If you heard the uncut version, he went on for 15 minutes. He was better than David Letterman.
    The guy from Yes! ugh

    LOL, yeah, his was the most over-the-top speech of the night. Something about losing his virginity is an apartment three blocks away too, right?

    I was there and heard the whole speech. Thought it was ridiculous.

    I'm probably the only person who appreciates the edited speeches. Even Ed rambled too long on tangents. During his speech, I looked at my cousin 2/3 of the way through and was like, "He needs to bring this to a close."

    My 72 year old mother just sent me this text:

    "I'm watching The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Pearl Jam is onstage and they sure do jam with their guitars. I haven't seen them that often. I love how he interplays with the fans."

    I loved reading that.

    Sorry, I was talking about the RAP portion of the show. I say rap needs it's own hall of fame. I totally enjoyed the rest of it. County music respectfully has their own. I mean you wouldn't induct George Straight or George Jones into the rock and roll hall of fame would you? That's all I was saying.

    You actually did say more than that. If your original statement was only and specifically outlined as above, your point might have some merit. But you specifically stated "The Rap & Cuss hall of fame. .... I think those dudes showed no class. " A pretty odd thing to say, at the very least.

    We'll I am sorry. I don't dislike all rap. I actually have a few rap CD's in my collection. Public Enemy, EPMD, 3RD BASS, LL COOL J ( Mamma Said knock you out. lol), Ice Cube,. Tribe Called Quest. I thought the segment for Tupac Shakur wasn't done very well. Maby it's that type of rap that I don't like. Put it that way. Sorry for the oddnes. I called them dudes because I don't know their names except for Snoop Dogg of course and Alicia Keys. But yeah rap & cuss, that's what they did for 5 minutes. I don't mind an f bomb now and then it can really drive a point home during a song, but when that's all it is, I think that's classless.

    A Rap Hall of Fame would be fine, but you are totally and entirely missing the point of the Rock Hall of Fame. They induct bands that have had a significant impact on rock music, regardless of the genre of the band. Nile Rogers and Chic aren't "rock" either, nor technically are Blues or Bluegrass music. But Blues, Soul, and Bluegrass and some country are the ROOTS of rock and roll, and then as rock evolved there are other genres (rap being the major new one) that also shaped/impacted rock.

    THAT is why Grandmaster Flash, Run DMC, Beastie Boys, and Tupac are in the Rock Hall of Fame. Not because their music is rock, but because their music has had an impact on rock. This is a point that is MISunderstood year after year after year.

    id' be embarrassed to be influenced by Tupac or Snoop Dogg. while snoop may be a cool cat and a funny dude i don't see much redeeming quality to what he raps about but then again i'm a mid 40s white suburban dude so hard to blame me for that.

    Point well taken. I just don't get or understand the mother fuck mother fuck fuck mother fuckers type of rap. I do like some of the old school rap that has poetry and rhyming with a few f bombs here and there that's fine and okay, but that performance during the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, all I heard was motherfuck 25 times. I don't see the art in that at all, or what influence that has on rock and roll.
    That's what I was referring to as classless. Now Run DMC, I like, they did that tune with Aerosmith and I get it why they are in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.

    Thought the show was great! Come here to find not much but complaints about rap and editing.

    1) It's a 6+ hour event cut down into a 3 hour television show. Of course shit is gonna be edited. Heavily at that.
    2) We're all here because we love Pearl Jam, but this was not a night for only Pearl Jam. Respect the other artists who were being celebrated. I personally felt the show still favored PJ over the other bands, but of course people here aren't satsified.
    3) Rap is music, has its roots in blues, jazz, dance, & rock. And Tupac is the greatest ever.

    I had no problem with the edits of the speeches but editing the last song was complete bullshit. HBO really couldn't go over by 5 minutes?

    It would be great if HBO put up the complete RITW performance, untouched, on their website.

    If not it would be wonderful if they released the complete, edit free, Pearl Jam R&RHOF Ceremony on Blu-ray then. *crossing fingers
