So, what do you think? And none of the "so and so belongs in there before so and so". Yeah, that's a given. What do you think of the current bunch. Do any of them NOT belong there? I think one doesn't, and I will talk about that in comments later.

I refuse to take the R&RHOF seriously until The Moody Blues are in and seriously apologised to for the delay.

It's the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame, not the Muzak Hall Of Fame

it's all turned into money and politics.
hell when van halen got inducted last year (and they truly changed the face of rock, and have gone DIAMOND- that's 10 million copies- with 2 albums), who showed up to accept? Sammy Hagar and Michael Anthony, neither of whom are in the band anymore.

BTW it's very expensive for each band member to show up to this induction thing.

And the Sex Pistols told them to fuck off, and Johnny Rotten went on talk shows and made fun of them

and speaking of not takinga hall of fame seriously, i have aproblem with keeping pete rose out of the hall of fame, and letting in all these steroid users with an asterisk as their only punishment.

Pete Rose was the epitomy of what NOT to do in Baseball ...
