  • Contest: 2023 Fictitious Rock and Roll Hall of Fame -- Round 1
  • Before he became known for his charitable work with Live Aid, Bob Geldof was the lead singer of the Boomtown Rats, though Pink Floyd fans remember him best as “Pink”, the self abusing delusional rocker in their film, The Wall. Although the film remains iconic, and the album it is based on is considered a masterpiece, we did not see that much of “Pink’s” ability as a rock star, and as such this could be a candidate that might be overlooked.
  • TV Show/Movie Appeared: Pink Floyd – The Wall (1982)
  • Actors: Bob Geldof
  • Songs you may remember: In the Flesh?
  • Why you should vote:: This is based on one of (arguably) the greatest albums of all time.
  • Why you should not vote:: This film could have been done a different way, without a Rock and Roll protagonist.
