Something I didn't realize until I saw it on another forum is that this year one of the ballots submitted is a fan poll on the rolling stone website(the top 5 being submitted as one of the ballots), overall its not a huge amount of input but its there
http://www.rollingstone.com/music/ne...ctees-20121004
as of this moment all 5 of my choices are winning(the four I mentioned plus Albert King, who I totally missed when I glanced at the list the first time), so small victories at least.
Results 16 to 24 of 24

Man, having it on Rolling Stones site is sort of painting themselves as being out of touch.
But i guess that's appropriate for a historical type group.Nothing's gonna happen without a warning

Heart and Rush.
Kraftwerk sounds like they are a major influence on a lot of the music I listen to now but I've never heard of them.
The rest I'd say no too.Price your book at $3.99 and I'll trade wait. Make me wait too long for the trade PAPERback and I'll say screw it. I'm looking at you Marvel and Spider Island.

Heart, Rush, and Deep Purple all should definitely go in. Public Enemy is deserving, IMO. Donna Summer will likely go in now that she's passed on.
It's extremely difficult to take the Hall of Fame seriously when one considers that ABBA and Guns N' Roses are in and KISS is not.Last edited by Joker Venom; 11-09-2012 at 11:21 AM.

Well to be fair here...Guns n Roses was deserving . They deserved to go in for what they accomplished in the years the band 1987-1993 existed. They were biggest band in the world. When they went in Rose disagreed with how the Hall was ran and what they wanted and he asked not to be inducted. Izzy Stradlin himself didn't show.

I'm guessing that Rush, Deep Purple, N.W.A., and Chic will be going in. If it were up to me, Rush and Chic wouldn't be going in, and Albert King and the Paul Butterfield Blues Band would be.

Don't get me wrong, I LIKE Guns N' Roses. I even believe that they were deserving of induction into the Hall. But for them to be there before KISS, who are AT LEAST as deserving, if not more so, and should have been inducted years ago, is just wrong. Originally Posted by SUPERECWFAN1

I agree with you about Chic, but Rush definitely deserves to go in. Originally Posted by DennyK

KISS really need to be nominated already. When are Nirvana eligible? I'm guessing they'll get in on the first year possible.
