This is the first time in several years, I have watched this. I saw all of it except Nirvana. My main reason for watching was Linda Ronstadt. I loved all of Linda's work, to be honest, I may never have found Shania if it hadn't been for Linda not performing anymore. She revealed last August she has Parkinson's Disease. Because of this, she can no longer sing like she once did. I just read her autobio entitled: "Linda Ronstadt - Simple Dreams". I found it to be very interesting. I still miss her voice, what a voice! She didn't even attend the Ceremony, but she was represented in tribute by a lot of famous ladies: Sheryl Crow, Bonnie Raitt, Stevie Nicks, Carrie Underwood, and Emmylou Harris.
The 29th Annual Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony took place on Thursday, April 10, 2014 at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York. The 2014 Ceremony was open to the public, as it had been for the Induction Ceremonies in Cleveland (2009, 2012) and Los Angeles (2013). This was the first time that the event was held in New York.
