Re: Patti's Intro Person



Actually, my feelings about Ralph have nothing to do
with it - the people who make the induction speech
usually have some attachment to the music and can
speak with some expertise about the honoree's place in
rock'n'roll history, their influence on later
musicians and fans.  Ralph is none of the above. 
Someone like Michael Stipe, Bono, Bruce, Iggy, David
Bowie, even Bob Dylan, although I would prefer someone
who doesn't mumble!

Dave
