Whos your favorite inductee, who should be inducted, who do you think shouldn't have been inducted (If their is someone you think shouldn't have been inducted).

If you are not rock and roll you should not be in the Rock & Roll hall of fame. That includes Madonna, Mike Jackson, Run DMC, James Brown, Elvis Presley. If they wanted to include EVERYBODY then call it the MUSIC HALL OF FAME
@mrdecepticonleader: Well its just a official thread for the Rock n' Roll HoF
@pooty: They talked about that already, they[The CEO or COO or whatever] said they induct artist that influenced the art form of Rock n' Roll. I suppose the name still being "The Rock n' Roll HoF" is because it sounds good dó¡òb. But to be serious all of todays genres goes back to Rock n' Roll in some way of another.
@Funrush: Yeah but I thought Bon Jovi was inducted d?_?b
I think Motorhead and Iron maiden should be in. If one hit wonders like chubby checker are in, those bands should definitely be in as well. The only problem is that they arent mainstream enough for most voters.

Queen should be in it,Beatles should be in it as well,Kiss,Guns & Roses,Metallica,Pink Floyd(anyone besides me was on The Wall show this year?),AC DC,Megadeth,Slipknot,System of a Down,Evanescense and others that I can't remember right now.
@coolguyr99: Oasis won't be eligible for induction until 2019. A band can't be nominated until 25 years have passed since the release of their debut album.
@chalkshark: Yeah so Green Day has 7 more years, Nirvana has 2 more years, RadioHead has 5 more years, 2pac has 4 more years,
@mrdecepticonleader: Yeah.....Whats you're thoughts on it d?_?b
It good but there are people on there who shouldn't be like madonna,the Jackson five there are a few more who I dont consider rock n roll artists whatsoever and yet they dont even have Motorhead on,makes no sense,
Motorhead wasn't eligible until 02 and so thats why they weren't inducted early. They probably just haven't got enough votes to get inducted.
dó¡òb
Ah so they got inducted then?
I mean there are people on there who aren't even rock yet one of the greatest and longest running rock bands didn't get inducted.And Madonna is on here wha?
Well no but they definitely can be......But serious if we go off the logic of "If they weren't apart of Rock n' Roll they shouldn't be in" then about 6/8 of the people in the Hall shouldn't be there. It would be one event inducting Chuck, Buddy, Elvis, ect.
But artist like MJ, The Jackson 5, the Three Rap Group, B.B King, Johnny Cash, Bobby "Blue" Bland, Prince, ABBA, ect. are inducted because of their influence on the art form of "Rock Music".

But they aren't rock artists,Im sure certain artists have had influences on other genres.
To be serious the Rock n' Roll HoF is very confusing in the sense. It was never meant celebrate "Rock Artists" because if you notice none of the people inducted were Rock. The were Rock n' Roll, Jazz, Rockabily, Country, Blue, Pop, R&B, Soul, Dop-Wop.
Of course some hybrid genres like Country Blue, but The Beatles and The Beach Boys were the first rock group inducted in and some argue that their not even Rock. Like people say the Beach Boys are Surf Rock (west coast pop at that time) and the Beatles are Britpop. But my point is the Hall is for artist who inducted Rock Music not necessarily in Rock Music.

For the first time in its history, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame will offer fans the opportunity to officially participate in the induction selection process. Beginning on Thursday, October 4 and continuing through December 3, the public can vote for the five nominees they believe to be most deserving of induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. The top five artists, as selected by the public, will comprise a “fans’ ballot” that will be tallied along with the other ballots to choose the 2013 inductees. ~ The Rock n' Roll HoF Website
How could they induct Metallica and GNR before Deep Purple and Rush?! Without these bands, they would not exist! And why the hell Public Enemy and N.W.A are on that list?! It is not Hip-Hop Hall of Fame!
I think I explained this to mrdecepticonleader a page back. The Rock 'n Roll HoF is for artist of any genre who have influenced the artform of "Rock Music". NWA and Public Enemy have influenced rock music alot because of they're heavy influence on Rap. d*-*b
@Funrush: Well so far that will make up the fan vote dó¡òb
Look at the Rap groups in the hall....Run-DMC, Grandmaster Flash & TFF, and the Beastie Boys (quick fact the Beastie Boys were originally a rock group who style was more rap). Grandmaster Flash & TFF helped create Hip Hop/Rap, Run-DMC made it mainstream and not underground and Beastie Boys opened the door for non-blacks to join the Hip Hop/Rap community.
If it wasn't for Hip Hop/Rap their wouldn't be any Beastie Boys, Linkin Park, Kid Rock, Flobots, Rage Against the Machine, Hollywood Undead, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Limp Bizkit ect.....

I could do without almost every band you named there. Except for RHCP.
