It's no problem. I enjoyed seeing the photo again.
You attended a Rock 'n Roll HOF ceremony, Soda? How awesome.
That's awesome you were there Soda!!! :D I do remember this as my Mom is a huge Linda Ronstadt fan and we had HBO at the time and got to watch their broadcast. Plus, I love Stevie Nicks, Sheryl Crowe, and lot of the other women who performed, and of course Glenn. :D
Happy 3rd Anniversary of Glenn inducting Linda into the RnRHoF.

Thanks so much, Shun, for posting that. I really enjoyed seeing it again. Glenn was the perfect choice --he was so good at that sort of thing, and loyal to Linda.
Oh, such happy memories! Thank God I got to go to this, to see Glenn and Stevie sing together. I'll never forget it!
What an awesome time for you, Soda!
And Glenn did a wonderful job! And of course, the singers!
It's a lovely speech and Glenn :heart: enjoyed giving it. I'm so glad Soda that you got to witness it live, and also to see him sing with Stevie another of your favourite singers. At the time I remember feeling sad that Linda herself had not been able to attend. Not that I was thinking that way but I never thought Glenn :heart: would pre decease her.
Happy 4th Anniversary of Glenn inducting Linda into the RnRHoF.

Wow, 4 years! That just makes me sad!
Glenn had such a great time singing with those women at that! :sad:
@Brooke -- I think it's fairly safe to say that Sugar was always happy when he was surrounded by women. ;) He was the kind of man who just loved women. They don't come around too often. :heart:
I went to that. When Glenn and Stevie sang together, my two musical icons, it was one of the most epic musical moments of my life!
I try to cling to that instead of what I'm feeling today. :(
That's so awesome that you got to go there, Soda! I'm sure it was an epic moment for you. It's wonderful when those magical moments come along in life.
Soda - It is so cool you were able to go and have that special memory and share it with us. I can't believe it has been for years. I remember watching it on tv.
That was so awesome that you got to go!Quote:

"Ha, you liar! This is an April Fool's joke, right?" I scoffed. Glenn just didn't do that kind of stuff, and Kristin knew how much I loved him. Glenn AND Stevie? Too good to be true.
"No, I swear! Look it up!"
I immediately Googled it, read the announcement, checked the site to make sure it was legit, and screamed "I'M THERE!"
I got everything cemented by April 4 and was off to NYC on April 9. Crazy!
SO glad I went.
5 years ago today, Glenn inducted Linda into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.

Thanks for the reminder, shun and also for re-posting those videos. I love it when Glenn joins the ladies on stage!
What a night that was! Unforgettable. Glenn and Stevie singing together... a dream come true! Also, it was the last time I saw him solo, even if it was brief. A treasured memory.
Thanks for sharing that, shun!
