She has, with Fleetwood Mac. Shes become the first woman inducted twice.How has Stevie Nicks not been inducted yet?
Ah, that makes more sense.She has, with Fleetwood Mac. Shes become the first woman inducted twice.
I couldn't agree more. It's not the "pop" or "alterative" Hall of Fame.....as someone that's been around and worked in radio for nearly 40 years, I still don't agree with inclusion of non rock & roll acts.....I have no dislike for Janet, Radiohead or The Cure-but they aren't from that genre, I don't care how anyone reasons it....let's see: Pyromania vs Rhythm Nation...I rest my case...*wanders off to find his ZZ Top Greatest Hits*......
Why don’t they just make their own specific hall of famesI couldn't agree more. It's not the "pop" or "alterative" Hall of Fame.
Exactly! What gives?Still no ELP?
....I agree with all but Tina, she could Rock but had a bigger Soul.....And what gives with the Rock’n’Roll Hall Of Fame?
Iron Maiden, Jethro Tull, Dave Matthews Band, Pat Benatar, T-Rex, Tina Turner, The Monkees, Judas Priest, Soundgarden, Ozzy Osbourne, The Scorpions and Mötley Crüe get snubbed again.
What's up with that?And what gives with the Rock’n’Roll Hall Of Fame?
Iron Maiden, Jethro Tull, Dave Matthews Band, Pat Benatar, T-Rex, Tina Turner, The Monkees, Judas Priest, Soundgarden, Ozzy Osbourne, The Scorpions and Mötley Crüe get snubbed again.
I see what you did thereExactly! What gives?
There seems not to be a lucky man between them..
The Cure not Rock and Roll? give me a break. What's the definition of Rock and Roll? Different generations. You can say they are a goth band. What about a band like Devo? Are they Rock and Roll?....as someone that's been around and worked in radio for nearly 40 years, I still don't agree with inclusion of non rock & roll acts.....I have no dislike for Janet, Radiohead or The Cure-but they aren't from that genre, I don't care how anyone reasons it....let's see: Pyromania vs Rhythm Nation...I rest my case...*wanders off to find his ZZ Top Greatest Hits*......
...no, in my opinion they’re not...and I didn’t agree with Devo’s inclusion either....The Cure not Rock and Roll? give me a break. What's the definition of Rock and Roll? Different generations. You can say they are a goth band. What about a band like Devo? Are they Rock and Roll?
I’d say any rock sub-genre should be eligible,The whole nomination and election process is a joke.
I agree it should be re-named to the Popular Music Hall of Fame or just Music Hall of Fame.
Using the Rock and Roll term is too limiting. There are many sub-genres and it will make purists made if you call Band A "rock" when someone else views them as "punk" or "alternative" or "hard core" or "shoe-gaze emo intentionally ironic mod goth". Labels aren't cool, man!
However, disco artists should be banned! 'Cause it's Disco and Disco is poop!
