Music ABBA and the Stooges, the Two Best Musical Groups of the 1970s, to Be Inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame

- Thank you for the music!
Also inducted are Genesis—all of whose good songs are actually solo Peter Gabriel releases, and all of whose famous songs are actually solo Phil Collins releases—and the Hollies, which, really, the Hollies? And not, like, the Box Tops?
And then there are the headliners, who are, as mentioned in the headline, the Stooges and ABBA. You would like me to make a joke about the incongruity of this pairing, right? Ok, but you'll have to follow the link to other side of the jump if you want to hear it. Deal? It's really funny I promise.
"The induction ceremony will be held in March, at which point Björn Ulvaeus and Benny Andersson will rub peanut butter on their chests and roll around in broken glass while singing the backup part of 'Take a Chance on Me'."
There, there is my joke about ABBA and the Stooges being together at last. Ha ha ha maybe Iggy Pop will wear platform boots and a jumpsuit also.
