^Not that that has anything to do with induction. :)
It's a long time coming, After Heart was inducted, and then acts like Journey and Bon Jovi, etc. - who also weren't the biggest critical-hit acts - they couldn't keep ignoring Pat.

Yes, long overdue for the woman often dubbed the "Queen of Rock" in the '80s.

Come on, just NOW? Looooong overdue! Incredible vocal range, biggest rocker chick who influenced rockers after her, including thanks to her image and videos in early MTV. Great to see her in this list. Fuck yeah!

^She was nominated two years ago for the first time, but, yes, overdue, for sure. On U.S. radio, she has four hits that, at last check, get decent recurrent play: "Heartbreaker," "Hit Me With Your Best Shot," "Love is a Battlefield" and "We Belong."

It seems to be taken off YouTube frequently, but I always loved this performance with Martina. Even when Pat was losing her voice, she still rocked it.

Dates have gone on sale for Eastern Pa. This time, we opted for the Soundcheck package in Quakertown, so it will be a new experience. I interviewed her via email in 2015, so now I should be able to ask her a live question as part of the Q&A. :)

That would be a great show.

Indeed. Will be nice to see them perform in July as R&R HOF inductees (even though the ceremony isn't until November).

Saw pat and Neil perform last night in Quakertown, Pa. Solid show. And during the pre-show Q&A,she read the couple of questions I submitted, which was nice. :)
