Yes. One year's nominees don't have much to do with the next. The likes haven nin and The Cure have been nominated in recent years, but not the following. Also doesn't mean they won't be again.

If thats the case they should stop nominating so many bands each year

I’ll bet bands are added just to increase the cash and/or memorabilia donations from said bands.

“Oh, sorry you didn’t make it this year Jane’s Addiction. Maybe some appearances, guitars, and a little money will make that happen in the next 3-4 years”

I mean Tom Morello seems to be hanging out a lot the last few years and giving a whole lot of interviews to Rolling Stone, and MAGICALLY now Rage Against The Machine is on the short list for induction. Weird how that happens :eyes:

(Someone tell me I am right and not just being cynical)

No you're right. Morello has been jockeying for this for years. He's always serving some kind of function at the ceremonies and generally just sucks Jan Wanner's dick.

Incredibly boring list of inductees this year. I can't stand Bon Jovi. Hopefully they reunite with drunk Richie Sambora who pukes at the podium and punches Bon Jovi in the face just to add some kind of actual RnR to this thing.

A headline stating that RS is reuniting brought me to the news of the inductees in the first place.....it could happen. Totally agreed on this years list, except Nina.....she's a goat and was downright dangerous onstage.

It’s a crime that Depeche Mode aren’t going in.

They are soooooo much bigger and more influential than The Cars.

Or better still, punches the podium and pukes in Jon Bon’s face.

I don’t pay much any more attention to HoF than I do to any magazine or website’s ‘top 50 greatest ever...’ articles.

Well, that's a simple fix....don't. I have found that I enjoy the lists immensely. Top drummer, guitarist, bassist, band even metal band (not much the metal guy). I understand the ego, subjectivity, and rampant politics involved with the clickbait but I don't take them too seriously and they always get me to thinking and usually bring to me really good natured and spirited (and sometimes illuminating) discussions on players, bands, or music in general.

Ya two studio albums of gold in a very small window where nobody in the band died...then years later a TV show theme song...it's not a very good resume in the grand scheme...plus look how ignored they were by the masses during their prime..."they let the dog bark junkie band in wtf.!" Is what most would say if they got in

I like these, but there is no requisite urban or cheese stadium rock massive appeal "Journey" slot.

I'll predict:

Def Leppard
Janet Jackson
The Cure
Stevie Nicks
Mc5 (outsider chance...Todd Rundgren)
