The 27th annual Rock and Roll Hall of Fame ceremony was held last night at the Waldorf-Astoria, where the inductees included Alice Cooper, Neil Diamond, Darlene Love, Tom Waits, Elektra Records founder Jac Holzman and two bearded, gravelly-voiced piano players, Leon Russell and Dr. John. We\u2019ve gathered some of the best lines of the night, from inductees and presenters:<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m particularly glad to be hear because now at least when you Google \u2018Bette Midler\u2019 and \u2018Rock and Roll Hall of Fame\u2019 something will come up.\u201d Bette Midler, who introduced Darlene Love<\/p>\n
\u201cThey were more than a band; they were like a gang of murderous drag queens.\u201d \u2014 Rob Zombie introducing Alice Cooper.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere\u2019s always that \u2018Spinal Tap\u2019 moment\u201d \u2014 Alice Cooper, after trying to exit the stage the wrong way.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe man is indescribable and I\u2019m here to describe him.\u201d \u2014 Neil Young introducing Tom Waits.<\/p>\n
\u201cI want to know if there\u2019s a keychain version of this.\u201d \u2014 Tom Waits, accepting his trophy.<\/p>\n
\u201cNeil was known as the Jewish Elvis Presley. Which is a lot better than being the Jewish Fabian. In fact, in synagogues across America, Elvis Presley was known as a bogus Neil Diamond.\u201d \u2014 Paul Simon introducing Neil Diamond.<\/p>\n
