Top 5 get in. As much as I like Soundgarden and NIN, there are other bands that have waited much longer that should get in: Judas Priest, Thin Lizzy, Depeche Mode, Motorhead, and TRex for me

If Depeche Mode gets in before Soundgarden, they should just shut the fucking thing down.

If the Grass Roots aren't in then the HOF is a sham.

So, still no Iron Maiden? Judas Priest deserve to be there.

And Weird Al Yankovic gets snubbed again.
Maybe he just needs to dump a bunch of human shit on a group of people on a boat tour like Dave Matthews Band did. Then maybe he can get in.

Honestly though he deserves it more than at least a dozen bands that are already in.

If the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame wasn't a complete joke they'd have Judas Priest and Motorhead in already. This year it should be those two, Thin Lizzy, Doobie Brothers, and then either Depeche Mode, Pat Benatar, or TRex.

That said Notorious B.I.G. is taking one of those slots guaranteed so probably JP, Motorhead, Thin Lizzy, Biggie, and then probably somebody who shouldn't be in like Whitney Houston or DMB.

Nothing against Biggie here btw, he deserves to be in the hip hop HoF, but R&R doesn't make any sense. They really need to change the name to the Pop Music Hall of Fame or something.

Doesn't Rolling Stone have a lot to do with the R&R HoF? That's probably why it's such a shit show.

No no no. You can't put two bands that define one of the most popular sub-genres of rock music in before Bon Jovi and Janet Jackson bro.

I'm not a huge fan of any of the nominees. The Doobie Brothers seem overdue, but maybe that's because their heyday was mine as well. My guesses -


Doobie Brothers
Judas Priest
Depeche Mode
Whitney Houston (doesn't seem right, but she was huge)
Motorhead
