Sweden is beautiful in March

Here's an idea: Why not have the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremonies somewhere else this coming year? Instead of the usual location in the United States, how about outside the U.S.? It could be anywhere, oh, let's just say, off the top of my head, how about... Sweden! Yeah, yeah, just like in today's entry title. Good guess, reader!

And here's why - I'm still worried that Agnetha wouldn't be willing to make the trip from Sweden to New York to be a part of the festivities. So why not bring the festivities to her?
After all, ABBA helped break down the barrier that prevented non-American and non-British acts from entering the musical charts. Plus, I don't think the Hollies or Genesis would mind too much if the ceremonies were held in Europe. As for the other inductees, hey, it'd be a good excuse to take off for a vacation over there!

Having the ceremonies take place in Sweden, of course, is no guarantee that all the members of ABBA would make an appearance, but I think that for something like this, it'd be very likely. I can't imagine why Bjorn, Benny, and Frida wouldn't make sure to be there, and with no reason to have to get on a plane, I can't imagine Agnetha not being there too. I just had this stroke of brilliance last night and wanted the thought to get out there as soon as possible. Securing a venue and organizing such an event is a huge undertaking and since it is scheduled to take place on March 15, well, there's not much time - so let's get moving folks and make this happen!
