Good news, and the award is well-deserved.

I'm glad they're getting a Lifetime Achievement Award, but I can't believe they haven't received one before now. Long overdue!
Agreed!
Sad that the original members aren't around to revel in this well-deserved honor.
Maybe now they can get Charlie off the MTA.

I agree with Jerry.
At least Bob Shane's still around, and doing pretty well. I hope he'll be there.
