You can say that again... Their bias against prog (and metal) is ridiculously obvious.... Tom Pety inducted before King Crimson and The Moody Blues??.... The Pretenders inducted before Yes and Iron Maiden?...Screw those bastards.
Their claims about musical impact, innovation and influence getting you inducted is a load of bullocks, by that criteria, King Crimson have been more worthy than half of the artists they have inducted in the past 15 years, they should have been inducted the day they were qualified for entry, which was way back in 1994, since it has to be 25 years since your first recording until you can be inducted... The board members are clearly going by personal preference, some members have even stated that they would make sure that KC would never be inducted, proof that The Hall Of Fame is a load of elitist bullshit.
