R.I.P. UK Music Hall of Fame

Remember the UK Music Hall of Fame, which was supposed to be the Brit equivalent of our RRHOF. Well after going silent in 2007, its now shut its doors for goods because of lack of funding. Surprising that last bit, you would think they could get the public interested in a non-US Rock Hall of Fame. After all there are plenty of British acts that won't get in to our Hall. The Brit Hall inducted Eurythmics, John Peel and New Order/Joy Division, as well as Cliff Richard & The Shadows. But then again, they did induct a lot of American acts. Still, had it gone on it could have put in other Brit acts that are missing from our Hall like the Smiths.
