Grandmaster Flash & the Furious Five Enter Rock and Roll Hall of Fame

Via MTV -

A groundbreaking college-rock band, a fractious group of hard rockers, a pioneering and political hip-hop act, a punk poetess and the greatest girl group of all time are readying their acceptance speeches.

On Monday (January 8), the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Foundation announced its 2007 class of inductees, an eclectic list that features R.E.M., Van Halen, Grandmaster Flash & the Furious Five, Patti Smith and the Ronettes. All five acts will be inducted into the Hall during a gala ceremony/concert at New York's Waldorf-Astoria hotel on March 12.

Of course, all five will also be expected to perform that night, which, uh, might prove interesting for a couple of acts.
