Hall of Fame petitions from WWB

WorldWideBluegrass.comOur friends at WorldwideBluegrass.com are promoting a pair of petition drives to get two of bluegrass music’s pioneers into the Country Music Hall Of Fame. Both Flatt & Scruggs and Bill Monroe have been inducted, but WWB is hoping to see The Stanley Brothers and The Osborne Brothers inducted as well.

You can add your name and address online, and the folks at WWB will send the petitions on to the Hall Of Fame once they receive 10,000 signatures on each.

The Osborne Brothers petition can be found here, and The Stanley Brothers here.
