Warren Zevon is not in!? That's the biggest disgrace on that list.

I hope there is not a hierachy system on that Ament t-shirt, cause if there is he thinks that Motley crue are more worthy of an induction than Jane's

Probably has more to do with how each word fit the shape.

Well, I was almost spot on. Wrong, obviously on DM v Journey. Should have known....pretty dumb, but Journey is one of two bands I consider to be among the most wretched pieces of shit ever to fumble with music. Neil Schon has an iota of cred with work with Santana, but otherwise along with Def Leppard, Journey evokes a visceral negative response from me whenever I have the misfortune of stumbling across them.

Like NIN this year, I see JA being ignored next year as well. :nod:
New nominees are in for '18....the list is rich gonna be way too hard to call, factor in usual internal politics and the vast additional external ones this year....and it's just toss up after toss up.

Frankly I find it hard to understand why the MC5 aren't already in, surely that's long overdue?

I'm very surprised Soundgarden didn't get nominated. Maybe they thought it would be a bad look to nominate them this year given what happened back in May.

This year has a few that can win...Radiohead, Rage, DM, Bon Jovi, Priest, DS, LL, MC5, Moody Blues, Rufus, and The ZOmbies....and those who should like Nina Simone and Rosetta. Either Radiohead or Rage will get a slot and though it seems easily given to Radiohead, I really think Tom's got a real edge with his influence/clout and the new band and certain current events. :noclue:

Fuck it....here's mine....

Rage
Moody Blues
MC5
LL Cool J
Depeche Mode

Possible:
Radiohead
Bon Jovi
Judas Priest
The Cars

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.

:lol: Well, I was way the fuck off....like The Cars....grew up with them as background music. Love that Nina Simone made it, but shocked she did. Knopfler has some cred, but never moved me.....Jovi and MB's put me to sleep at best.

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.
