Rock and Roll Hall of Fame

[X factor]

(David Lee Crotch)He is the greatest frontman in the history of rock, period.

Dude, are you fucking high?

Ever heard of Perry?
Springsteen?
Freddie?
Jaegger?

I'm with you on this one, Dean...Springsteen is the man live!

I will say that I never got to see DLR with VH back in the day...only post VH, and he sucked pretty hard...Sen Freddie and Mick. BOTH awesome, particularly Mercury. I would also add (don't shoot me!) Bono to that list...brilliant showman and underrated as a vocalist, imho...

Dude, that title belongs to Freddie Mercury. You need to have the vocals to go with the tights

My favorite that I have seen live is Steve Whiteman of Kix.

NIG,, a few years ago i saw his guitar player painting billboards on a VH-1 , where are they now.. but a few years earlier i saw them open for Ratt.. and kicking butt!! Dont Tear Donw These Walls baby

I thought they all sucked, including Sammy. He has lost too much range and tries to compensate by screaming. Eddie is back in rehab, so I wasn't surprised that Alex didn't show up, either. Roth should have been there, though. If I were deciding who to induct into the HOF starting on day one...the Beatles, Stones, Zeppelin and Aerosmith would have gotten in and no more shows would need to be booked for several years....maybe NEVER again. Those are the mega acts. Never to be duplicated. That's what a RR HOF should be about, IMO. Grandmaster Flash and Patty Smith??

I saw Sammy last summer, and have to disagree with your comment. He sounded great!

For anyone that cares, here is a link to an interesting article about corruption in the Hall of Fame as if it wasn’t obvious already. It is about Grandmaster Flash getting in this year even though they received fewer votes than The Dave Clark Five. The chairman of the foundation did not want to go another year without a rap act being inducted.

As if it was already a sham, this article shows just how meaningless the honor really is.

Yeah, it's too bad the HOF is run by losers who don't even understand rock and roll.
