[Fendi]

There is some great famous pioneer on that list, but Rush himself give out backlash on HoF itself. After this year nomination and controversy? HoF is same as the regular poll people made up.

Anyone excited on Rush nomination? they pretty humble about the news.

I'm all for Quincy Jones, Heart, PE, Rush and Albert King!

[Lich Leech]

Only Rock N Roll and the music that inspired them SHOULD be in the HOF

After all Madonna is NOT Rock N Roll

They should probably change it to the pop hall of fame. That would cover rock, rock n' roll (two different genres), dance, etc

So happy that Heart finally made it in!! After watching the performance of "Stairway to Heaven" at the Kennedy Honors for Led Zepplin, I remembered how much I LOVE Heart!! Ann Wilson is one of the greatest voices in music ever, male or female. And Their music(especially in the 70's) is genuinely amazing!

Your picks include Chicago, Deep Purple and the Smiths
http://www.rollingstone.com/music/pi...-2014-20130424

Few topics cause rock fans to argue like the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Its most vociferous critics (such as That Metal Show host Eddie Trunk) feel it's been terribly unkind to prog and metal, while others feel that rap and pop acts like ABBA and Madonna have no place in there. Many fans would simply like to see more post-punk groups like the Smiths, Joy Division and Sonic Youth get a nod. Last week, the long-overlooked acts Rush and Randy Newman finally entered the Hall of Fame. We asked our readers to vote for the act they'd most like to see get inducted next year.

01. Deep Purple
02. The Smiths
03. Kiss
04. Yes
05. The Moody Blues
06. Cheap Trick
07. Warren Zevon
08. Gram Parsons
09. Chicago
10. Nirvana


GROHL AND HAWKINS INDUCTING RUSH

Metal should have their own Hall of Fame, Or at least some individual that changed Heavy metal Scene like Tony Iommi or even Jon Lord, and Neil Peart.

So happy that Heart finally made it in!! After watching the performance of "Stairway to Heaven" at the Kennedy Honors for Led Zepplin, I remembered how much I LOVE Heart!! Ann Wilson is one of the greatest voices in music ever, male or female. And Their music(especially in the 70's) is genuinely amazing!

You should watch Alice in Chains and Gretchen Wilson (With Nancy Wilson) cover on Barracuda.

well I think rocknroll is pretty much including evruthing except the very POP scene.
reggae, r'n'b, metal, punk, post-punk, ska, blues, jazz....all of them are part of rocknroll as the hall of fame mean it.

anyway no black flag? no bad brains? after 30 years they should know how those bands were seminal for a lot of bands that are already in. especially for the flags, they kinda inspired modern rock one way or another.
