Mr. New York.

Mark Simone on W-O-R.

Well, Roger Friedman has this great website, showbiz, 411.com.

A lot of good stories and excellent stuff, new stuff every day.

Make sure you check it, the great entertainment reporter.

Roger Friedman, how you doing?

I'm great. Good morning. How are you?

I'm good. Hey, this rock and roll Hall of Fame, why don't they just change the name called the Music Hall of Fame?

I know, right? This has gotten weird now. Um, Shaka Khan is great, but does she really belong in a rock and roll hall fame? I'm not sure. There's a rapper. I never heard of him before. And he's in. DJ Cool, Herc. Do you know who he is? Yeah. But you know the one that really gets to me is Willie Nelson? I mean, it's like putting Led Zepp in the country Hall of Fame.

They did Dally Parton last year, so I guess they have to do Willie Nelson this year.

And, yeah, it's sort of become, maybe it's a little woke, but it sort of combines all

these different disciplines and not just rock and roll, which is kind of weird.

Also, the strange thing about this morning's announcement is that Cindy Lauper, the whole, like,

the last three months that they had the fan vote, Cindy Lauper was number one in the fan vote,

and she didn't get in.

Well, wouldn't you agree, unlike Cheryl Crow, Cindy Lopper was much more innovative,

a breakthrough kind of stuff? I would think, I mean, nothing against Cheryl Crow because I like

her songs, but Cindy Lopper should have gotten in first. Yeah. So it's a little bizarre. I like

the fact the R&B stuff, I do like the spinners are getting in.

I mean, it's only taken 30 years to get them in.

Wait a minute.

I love the spinners.
