• 4:59
  Speaker 1: which is why Jens and hates it. Uh, it's there
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: must be a better way to go about this because
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: a lot of these it's it's like we say every
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: year whenever we watch the Hall of Fame jam at
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: the end, you know, where all the bands come out
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: and play, we really should be honoring these people while
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: they're alive. Yes, you know, and some of them are
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: close to not being alive. Now I'm not I'm not sure.
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: I don't think it's like the Baseball Hall of Fame.
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: In the base the Baseball Hall of Fame, you get
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: nominated by the sports writers or whatever, and if you
• 5:34

  Speaker 1: That's not that's that's harsh. That that is pretty harsh.
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: I mean, like it's that baseball player who lives here,
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: who was I can't think of his name now, Glenn anyway,
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: really baseball player, a Utah guy. He should be in
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame, and he gets passed over every time.
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: Somebody in the room will say, remind me of who
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: it is gets passed over every year, every time, and
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: at a certain time they'll just drop them out. I
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: think that's the I think maybe they should do that too.
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: And I sort of agree with Gene Simmons. I don't
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: know if it should be so all inclusive.
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: You know, there's more things that are inclusive, not less
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: things that are inclusive.
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: There should be a jazz Hall of Fame, you know,
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: rock jazz hall of Fame, and well there are I
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: think there probably is, but but you know, should should jazz?
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: Good Bill? It sounds good, it is good, that's true.
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: But they're but there there there are any classical musicians
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: in there, you know, Mozart, and I think they're getting
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: their kudos, aren't they. No nobody goes see just listen
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: to classical music anymore. I used to, like, I go
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: to the Simple every once in a while. I haven't
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: done it for years ago. With my wife. You sit
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: in the back and you watch, you look at the
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: as you're looking at the stage, and you'll see men particularly,
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: you'll see heads dropping as you're watching this. And he's
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: kind of my wife dragged me here just he sort
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: of fall asleep.
