Bad Company inducted by Mick Fleetwood; drummer Simon Kirke joined by Joe Perry, Bryan Adams, Chris Robinson for performance <\/p>\n
Mikael: Mick Fleetwood is here to induct Bad Company, and he\u2019s laying out how the rock supergroup came together with members of Free and King Crimson. He hails Paul Rodgers\u2019 \u201conce-in-a-lifetime voice,\u201d which makes it too bad that Rodgers himself isn\u2019t here tonight to accept the honor. He\u2019s said he couldn\u2019t make it as a result of some health issues.<\/p>\n
Vanessa: It\u2019s such a bummer because Rodgers is legit one of the most underrated vocalists in rock. Watching this video package, you forget how many bangers Bad Company has. My favorite jam is \u201cOh, Atlanta,\u201d (different than the Little Feat track of the same name) \u2014 but \u201cShooting Star,\u201d \u201cMovin\u2019 On,\u201d \u201cCan\u2019t Get Enough of Your Love,\u201d when they come on the radio I\u2019m cranking it up.<\/p>\n
M.W.: To play Bad Company\u2019s tunes with drummer Simon Kirke, we\u2019ve got Chris Robinson of the Black Crowes, Heart\u2019s Nancy Wilson and Aerosmith\u2019s Joe Perry.<\/p>\n
Oh, and now Bryan Adams is here to belt \u201cCan\u2019t Get Enough of Your Love.\u201d I\u2019m with you, Vanessa: a banger for sure<\/p>\n
V.F.: OK, where can I sign up for Bad Company karaoke night with Bryan Adams? He\u2019s killing it.<\/p>\n
M.W.: Bryan Adams is another underrated rocker, now that I think about it.<\/p>\n
V.F.: I wholeheartedly agree.<\/p>\n
M.W.: Can someone lift Simon Kirke\u2019s microphone? \u201cI\u2019m feeling like the Hunchback of Notre Dame,\u201d he says as he stoops over to accept Bad Company\u2019s induction.<\/p>\n
V.F.: Love that Simon Kirke is giving a shoutout to the Bad Company wives!<\/p>\n
M.W.: \u201cThe Bad Company wives\u201d is a great phrase.<\/p>\n
V.F.: I\u2019m glad we\u2019re getting Paul Rodgers in video form at the very least \u2014 and even a short Little Richard tribute!<\/p>\n
M.W.: It\u2019s easy to goof on an institution like the Rock Hall, but I\u2019ll admit that it can be pretty moving when you see how much the honor means to a musician. That seemed to be the case with Rodgers and Kirke.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Bad Company inducted by Mick Fleetwood; drummer Simon Kirke joined by Joe Perry, Bryan Adams, Chris Robinson for…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":125590,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[28],"tags":[168,87366,65746,87369,156,39275,84784,157,111,139,69,193,29699,87370,1629,25844,86167,87368,87367,379],"class_list":{"0":"post-125589","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-music","8":"tag-ceremony","9":"tag-chubby","10":"tag-cyndi-lauper","11":"tag-downtown-l-a-join","12":"tag-entertainment","13":"tag-fame","14":"tag-fame-inductee","15":"tag-music","16":"tag-new-zealand","17":"tag-newzealand","18":"tag-nz","19":"tag-other","20":"tag-outkast","21":"tag-peacock-theater","22":"tag-rock","23":"tag-rock-hall","24":"tag-roll-hall","25":"tag-shooter-jennings","26":"tag-warren-zevon","27":"tag-year"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/125589","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=125589"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/125589\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/125590"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=125589"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=125589"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=125589"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
