What a fucking joke. The Stooges? ROTFLMFAO.

That place is a complete joke.

by **Ehwmatt** » Wed Sep 23, 2009 11:20 pm

Genesis and The Hollies deserve it - everything else on there isn't even close. Wow, what a joke.

by **portland** » Wed Sep 23, 2009 11:26 pm

Another year...........and well it's become expected

by **bluejeangirl76** » Thu Sep 24, 2009 12:19 am

Oh here we go. :roll:

Again.

"Why isn't Journey...." "Why hasn't Journey..." "Why won't they nominate Journey..."

"Again, no Journey...?!"

Is this really a surprise, guys? I mean, really? :lol:

by **T-Bone** » Thu Sep 24, 2009 12:22 am

It's not just that, it's including people like LL Cool J. RHCP is also nowhere near ready... I like some of their stuff and Flea, Chad Smith, and John Frusciante are all great players, but overall RHCP is not HoF caliber... not yet, maybe not ever. More time needs to pass to judge their legacy.

I never said THAT was a good idea either. :lol:

ROCK and ROLL hall of fame. ROCK and ROLL.

Who let Rap in? BLEH! Either name it the "MUSIC Hall of fame" or get all that disgusting Rap horseshit out of there.

Bjg has spoken.

KISS needs their due.

by **Michigan Girl** » Thu Sep 24, 2009 1:10 am

I would not be upset if the Moody Blues were inducted!!
Geez, so many deserving names on this list....but Kiss...YES!!:wink:

1.) Because they're not "hip".
2.) Because they touch themselves at night and are dirty sinners.
3.) Because the RNR HOF doesn't take them seriously. And songs like "Like a Sunshower" don't help matters much.

Few do anymore.

"Another signer? Same songs re-recorded with a new guy? Dude, whatever. :roll:

Play Don't Stop Believin'!"

The die-hards are in the minority and minority usually doesn't rule.

After Grandmaster Flash got in over the Dave Clark 5 (who had six more votes) cuz Wenner wanted it that way...they shoulda closed the doors on the place...forever.

They will get in eventually... but not until Terry Stewart drops over and falls dead - he loves Punk and he hates AoR

by **mmberry301** » Thu Sep 24, 2009 4:24 am

ABBA ....okay i get this one
The Chantels ...no
Darlene Love ...idk
Donna Summer ...maybe
Genesis ...yes
The Hollies ...okay
Jimmy Cliff ...ummmm no
KISS ...yes
Laura Nyro .....check her papers
LL Cool J ...WTH
Red Hot Chili Peppers ...yes
The Stooges...who

by **X factor** » Thu Sep 24, 2009 5:08 am

The Stooges and Nyro are a given because of their "critical" cred (and I think the Stooges are deserving. Whether they're your cup of tea or not, Iggy and the boys made alot of noise back in the day and influenced alot a bands to come.)
KISS is the wildcard here. Dave Marsh, who along with Jann Weiner practically run this thing, has been quoted for years as saying "KISS is a shitty band, and I'm gonna do my part to keep them out." It's also well documented that Rolling Stone and Weiner have had a beef with Simmons and Stanley for years. HOWEVER- mark my words! If KISS makes it in, the walls come down and we'll finally see the big AOR bands of the 70's (JOURNEY, STYX, BOSTON, etc) get in. AND- I think Genesis will help pave the way for bands like RUSH and YES (also much deserving).

by **swataz** » Thu Sep 24, 2009 5:25 am

Hell - I think Judas Priest gets screwed every year, too.
