Agreed! 👍 Great speech & great performance! 👏 Just too bad that, other than Drew Barrymore (who was having the time of her life…) the rest of that crowd seemed DEAD! 💀 🤔

It really is. It reminds everyone, no matter who your favorite bad is, just how deep that love runs.

[@amybethhurst]

I love your comment. It is SO TRUE, one of the very best induction speeches EVER!!!!

[@amybethhurst]

@Wankshaftsbury Except that it's mostly about them.

[@EzekielPrellus]

Belinda is a timeless beauty. I love the way she feels so comfortable on stage with her oldest friends. Also she seems to have even more control and nuance in her lovely voice than ever before -- she's become a consummate professional. And Gina Schock remains utterly amazing! At age 63 here and she's hammering away like a 20 year old. The physical feat alone is worthy of a great deal of respect. And the rest of them are also marvelous -- Kathy, Jane and Charlotte. Just a great group. Such memories.

[@tonystek3611]

@murrayspiffy2815 … I would _almost_ agree with you, haha! Only for me, it’s the other way around … She was an INSTANT 10 at the age of 27 (before she had that tomboy look with the short hair…) and an easy 8 at 63 y/o! (Even now at 65, she STILL looks good!👌❤️) But did you ever see her at age 32/33 during her “Live Your Life, Be Free” period??? 🤩 OMG, she was an EASY 11/12 in my book!! 😍😍🤤 (*faint) 😁

1 John 2:15-17 New Living Translation 15 Do not love this world nor the things it offers you, for when you love the world, you do not have the love of the Father in you. 16 For the world offers only a craving for physical pleasure, a craving for everything we see, and pride in our achievements and possessions. These are not from the Father, but are from this world. 17 And this world is fading away, along with everything that people crave. But anyone who does what pleases God will live forever. James 4:4 New Living Translation 4 You adulterers! Don’t you realize that friendship with the world makes you an enemy of God?

These ladies are at the age where most people are starting to worry about hip replacement surgeries, retirement, Medicare etc. But here they are, rocking out at their induction ceremony, sounding just as good as they did decades ago. They're an inspiration to so many.

[@pasekmi]

Belinda had hip replacement a few years ago

[@rafaelsale6364]

The Go Go's were one of the best bands of the 80s. They broke barriers for future women rock artists, singers and songwriters. They were the forerunners of pop punk and, they're the first successful all female rock band with a debut album reach number #1 on the billboard album charts. Well deserved honor and long overdue. Not to mention, Belinda and Kathy are aging like fine wine.

[@mananimal3644]

My best friend of 35 years loves the GoGos. A huge fan since they dropped their first single in 1981. We met in Boy Scouts when we were 11years old. In High School we saw them in concert and Gina Shock threw out her drumstick and he caught it! I still remember driving around in his 1985 Jeep sing along on the cassette player. In 2013 he was diagnosed with a rare brain tumor caused by full blow AIDS. When he was in the Hospital in Arkansas his sister reached out to Belinda C. Rep. Belinda called a day later and talked to him on the phone for an hour and she prayed with him. I can remember it to this day. My friend was 43 and looked like he was 103 bc of the effects of AIDS. But for one fleeting moment youth paid its last visit and he was 15 again. He passed away on Dec 12, 2013. He told his sister to give me the drumstick. I still have in a glass case on my fire place mantle. Belinda C. is an angel too me for what she did for my friend. I will always hold her in the highest esteem. I love you Belinda and Ray...always.

Kathy Valentine wrote some very iconic bass riffs, and her bass tone is amazing. You can tell a Go Gos song just by her bass lines, that alone should get her recognition as a legendary rock n roll bassist

Today seems so crazy, it just has to be a dream right?

Gina Schock is a fantastic drummer... for an amazing band! See them live and you'll agree!

[@mitchyoung93]

So glad to see her back.

[@stephaniegormley9982]

My parents saw them on their first American tour opening for "The Police" in 1982. They had 6th row seats. They were there to see the latter as they'd never heard of The Go Gos. I was a toddler being baby sat by gram & grandpa. Anyhoo they loved their show and bought their album within days. My dad later remarked he was impressed with Gina as she made a point to walk around the stage and thank the audience herself, which was standard ops for her.

[@KmanRulez]

I didn't get to see the go go's until 2012 ( I live in Ontario, Canada). It was so awesome seeing them play live. It is awesome seeing Kathy back with them. When I seen them in concert, Kathy was not part of the Go go's. Kathy was one of the koolest (and prettiest) bass players for any female group. Rock on!!!

[@ugaais]

I was born in 1970 and a rocker…but always had a soft spot for the Go Go’s

[@kkearnscooper]

If you don’t love them you are broken. Sorry. Amazing sound!

[@YaakovBuchner]

If only I could return to the mid 80's. It was an incredible time to be a teenager! I have empathy for today's young people, who will never experience what we did.

[@eddiee2750]

Just like someone said in the comments, why in the HELL is Pat Benatar not in for Christ sake. Taking nothing away from the Go Go's though, just awesome and the voices are fantastic.

The Go-Go's should have been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame YEARS ago. Glad the Hall finally woke up.

[@melissacarlucci2365]

The Go-Go's were my 1st concert at 12yrs.old. Im so excited to see n hear/know there in the rock n roll hall of fame. Yay!!!

[@Paul_Wetor]

When I bought the first Go-Go's album in 1981, I thought to myself: this is like "Meet The Beatles". It was so much fun, all those great songs even without the radio hits. "Tonite" is still one of my favorites. It's about time the Hall Of Fame recognized this group. The Go-Go's are not only a great female group but a great group *period* . Their 2001 album is also one of my favorites.

Long overdue and well said on everyone's part. I was fortunate enough to be in my formative college years when the Go-Gos broke onto the scene. They are the soundtrack to my youth and they still resinate with me to this day. I saw them perform at the Serious Barbecue Tour in Texas and watched Belinda play Sandy opposite Barry Williams in a California production of Grease. They don't need the distinction of being an all girl band to warrant accolades. They were just DAMN GOOD period. Congrats and thank you.

Have to admit, that was the best introduction I've ever seen. Right down to Drew's self deprication "I know about wild times"...loved her entusiasim and dressing like the album cover. Great rock band. They deserve this honor. And they went through more drama then Fleetwood Mac.

[@michaelbauers8800]

There early days are so different, musically, than their more pop oriented hits. They were totally punk. They were a self-made band, they put in the time, and deserved the recognition. I think I first heard Our Lips Our Sealed. Instant hit IMO.

I can’t thank the director of their documentary enough for truly introducing me to The Go-Go’s. Of course I knew their famous songs but I never knew them as a band and the rest of their awesome catalogue. It’s unbelievably amazing this group of women in their 20s wrote the songs and played the instruments on an album that went to number 1. The Go-Go’s absolutely deserve to be in the HOF. I’m so happy they finally got in. To repeat the comment of others (and not to take away from The Go-Go’s): when the hell is Pat Benatar gonna get in?!

[@lesleyM84]

[@kekwayblaze3176]

Drew Barrymoore was a great choice to introduce the Go-Go's as during the heyday of the Go-Go's Drew had already outdid the band in terms of partying and being wild. So Drew could certainly relate to the Go-Go's in that regard. Plus Drew has been a fan of the band since she was a little girl and still is to this day.

[@redrick8900]

I'd rather have a musician. Getting a child actor to do it is just another way to make it all about them being a girl band.

[@kekwayblaze3176]

@@redrick8900 The fact you had someone who grew up with the band as their idol resonates with those who did, and thus having a real fan introduce the band into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame makes sense. Yet you no doubt cheered on someone like Obama and Dave Chapelle inducting Jay-Z who shouldn't have been inducted to begin with into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Yet you have a problem with Drew Barrymoore.

[@redrick8900]

@@kekwayblaze3176 If you can't get someone who is a real fan and a musician you don't belong in the Hall of Fame. I love Drew Barrymore, in movies. I don't know what she's doing here. Screw Jay Z.

[@honggiangvogia]

@@redrick8900 I’m sure The Go Go’s have some real fans who are also musicians. But hey it was the RRHOF’s decision to whom they would invite to introduce the inductees. They chose Angela Bassett to induct Tina Turner, would you say Tina doesn’t belong to the HOF?

[@redrick8900]

@@honggiangvogia It's the Hall of Fame I'm calling out as BS. I'm not saying the Go Go's don't belong. I like the Go Go's. That's why I checked out the video. I loved Flea's introduction of Metallica. Angela Bassett shouldn't have inducted Tina Turner either. It should have been Mick Jagger. They toured together. Also, The Hall of Fame isn't an arbiter of anything. It's just a venue with a gimmick. I consider no one better or lessor for being in it or not.

Definition of cool. I was born in 1990. Dad got me started on Kiss and ACDC and so forth by the time I was 5. Then to Judas Priest and Maiden. Love rock & roll in all it's real true forms. Got into punk and speed in my teens. Never wavered. Watched the Gogos doc last night. And even that got me emotional... It's just so CLEAR... Things were just SOOOO MUCH BETTER. I can feel it when I watch all the docs about the time and the music. The spirit of rock n roll. The whole thing. Just sooo bummed out I wasn't alive to experience any of it. The 70s and 80s. Such a special time. Damn it.

So glad they got in. They should have gotten in in 2006, I believe that was the first year they were eligible. The first all girl band to have a number one album with songs they wrote and play all the instruments on. Plus, one of the first, if not the first videos I ever saw on MTV was the five of them driving around in a vintage drop top car to "our lips...."
