Guessed right, but wanted to point out that the clue above should read 300 years, not 200. Pretty crucial hint.

Typo. Now corrected. Thanks for catching it. Hopefully no one else was mislead, the post had only been up a few minutes.
Who knows? Maybe, you were kidnapped, tied up, taken away and held for ransom.

Clue: A QUARTET INDUCTED IN 2010 & A TRIO INDUCTED IN 2004, THEY'RE THE FIRST & LAST INDUCTEES ALPHABETICALLY

Who are ABBA and ZZ Top?
Fuck, I said the Zombies. A fake Zombies band, using the name but without authorization or any original members, played in Texas in the late 60s. That fake Zombies band featured Dusty Hill and Frank Beard, so actually I am kinda right, but you guys would probably not see it that way, so I'm marking it zero.

To be clear I apologized to Brian for being a dick to him not for him being a dick.

Me too. As penance, this afternoon I listened to ZZ Top's First Album (yep, that is what they named it), and Rio Grande Mud, their second record.
