Ventures has been my dream since 1965! That hasn't changed even now! ︎

The Ventures were the real deal. Great innovative instrumental band that influenced God knows how many future guitar players & drummers.

[@ventues9751]

I had tears in my eyes watching this.

[@davidkastin4240]

The Ventures are a phenomenon 🎸🎸🎸🎸

[@syn707]

Long overdue....Congratulations....you deserve all of it!

The first drummer for the ventures was George Babbitt.
A 17 year old high school drummer.
But because of his age, he was unable to perform in bars. So he was replaced.
George was able to make a name for himself. And that name was GENERAL.

Any son who remembers his mom in his moment of glory is a Class AAA act. God bless Don Wilson and his loving mom.

Fogerty couldnt be bothered to mention the Ventures hometown of Tacoma but managed to plug his hometown of El Cerrito

[@Aweaverii]

I was just thinking that same thing. :)

The Ventures inducted in 2008 but The Shadows are still waiting, what a sad joke.

[@michaelrochester48]

That is because their hits were primarily in the UK

[@legendaryTMNICO]

Cliff Richard should be inducted too.
