Thanks to a friend’s last-minute invitation, I wound up at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame<\/a>‘s 2016 induction ceremony at Barclays Center last Friday. It was an incredibly entertaining night in a batshit-crazy kind of way.<\/p>\n

First of all, an awards show where presenters and honorees can swear as much as they like and speak at length is better than any other kind of awards show. People sound so much more genuine when they don’t have to deal with an orchestra playing them off! All the performances were great too, starting with the David Bowie tribute that opened the show: David Byrne, Kimbra and the Roots doing “Fame.”<\/a><\/p>\n

I got a special kick out of seeing Deep Purple.<\/p>\n
