Bearded Dave Letterman Inducts Pearl Jam Into Hall Of Fame

I love watching the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame induction ceremony on HBO.  It is interesting how every presenter manages to include 4 letter words into their speeches, even a rapper band that thanked God  for it's success. 
This year, another great Northwest band was inducted, Pearl Jam.  Within recent memory, Nirvana and Heart received the honor.  I was quite taken aback at Dave Letterman's beard.  I just didn't think someone that age could grow one that thick.  Originally, Neil Young was going to present the band, but backed out.  I think that is good because Letterman made for a better story.

Pearl Jam Inducted Into Rock Hall

The 1990s Grunge style band Pearl Jam has joined Nirvana and Heart as Seattle area artists inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame.  The induction ceremony was last night (Friday April 7th)  in New York.  David Letterman made the induction speech for the band in place of Neil Young, who was ill. 
Other artist joining the Hall include Yes, Journey, ELO, and Joan Baez.
