Post by JaneEyre on 22^nd Mar, 2008 at 7:36pm

Help get YES into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame! Here is the form letter I was asked to share with everyone I know:

Dear Friends,

I have just read and signed the online petition: "Yes Induction to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame" hosted on the web by PetitionOnline.com, the free online petition
service, at:

http://www.PetitionOnline.com/Yes/

I personally agree with what this petition says, and I think you might agree, too. If you can spare a moment, please take a look, and consider signing yourself.

Best wishes,

I am signer # 3033. To quote Jon Anderson, "Woo!"

I'm doubtful it will have any influence over the nomination committee, but you never know ...

Seems that the RRHOF don't like Prog rock because Rush are not in it also. Can you believe that. Theres an online petition at http://www.petitiononline.com/xanstar/petition.html
