Moody Blues fans!!

Go here DAILY to cast your fan votes to induct the Moody Blues into the Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame!!

It's LO-O-O-O-O-ONG past due for these guys! They shoulda been in twenty years ago. (From the looks of the current fan vote, they could make it this year!)

Dire Straits, and J. Geils (not that well acquainted with MC5...), but I won't be diluting my vote by voting for anybody but the Moodys until they are in. Sorry.

A gentle and beautiful song. Moodies are a gift, and their music has gotten me through some rough patches.
Going to vote now!

They got me through some difficult moments as well, and moved me in many ways.

I guess my nasty e-mail to the RRHOF about putting Steve Miller in, and not even NOMINATING the Moody Blues, got some results!

My friends and family still get a good laugh from that goofy poetry on some of their albums.
