Absolutely agree with this! And I also agree that even if Glenn and Don had initial reservations about Bernie and Randy performing at the induction ceremony (which I'm not saying they did), they, obviously, decided that the right thing to do was to include them.

Now that makes more sense...I can't imagine not wanting Bernie and Randy at the ceremony.

Here's a review of the edited version that should be broadcast on HBO this weekend (does anyone know if it gets broadcast in the UK?);

Thanks for the link - no idea about the UK, though.

I got HBO just for this, and my cable's gone out! The guy is coming to fix it Saturday morning. Sure is cutting it close...

I wonder if it'll be on their streaming service?

If it's anything like last year's, it'll be repeated ad nauseam and will later be on VH1 and VH1 Classic.

I hope I get to see it at some stage. If anyone gets wind of the UK stations showing it please post it.

Just got this in a Google alert.http://www.huffingtonpost.com/the-ro...=Entertainment

It includes backstage interviews with Glenn, Stevie Nicks & Carrie Underwood recorded for the RRHOF Museum.

Ah, yes. Lovely appreciation of Linda but also some allusions to how she may have inspired him to do something different himself.

What a welcome surprise! After the day I had, so nice to get home and see this handsome man, hear that amazing voice give such a nice tribute to Linda.

I've mentioned several times that I had a bit of a crush on Glenn back in the 70's (and perhaps for a while since then!). My Dad was always very partial to Linda. He loved listening to her sing. Consequently, I've always enjoyed listening to her as well.
