Disagree.
The Eagles suck.

Like most of the bands you like, only The Eagles don't suck.

And i really don't get it, looking at those who have been inducted already, why can't The Eagles be inducted?... Objectively in greatness terms, i'd consider them more worthy than Joshua Home, Immortal Technique or The Mars Volta, and especially The Fall Of Troy.

This is my problem, i think this whole thing is going to be biased against older bands in favor of modern music, so far, every artist that has been inducted is a modern day artist, save Bowie, the others are still very young artists, a couple of albums and they are already worthy for a hall of fame?... Whats the criteria anyway, if there is any.

The Eagles get my vote, so i agree.

It's not the threads problem, it's the members. If people don't like The Eagles then they disagree. It's stupid thinking 'I don't like The Eagles but they've been around for a while so let's put them in.'

The criteria is, you have to be good.
The Eagles suck.

Thats the spirit, bands shouldn't get in based on preference alone should they?... I'm trying to add a objective spin here, yes i do like The Eagles, but thats not why i voted for them, i honestly think they deserve it.

Good is 100% subjective, so your criteria is sh*t, just like your taste in music.

~~bungalow~~ · 07-14-2006, 12:45 AM

So even if you don't like them, you should put vote them in because they have made a lot of sh*tty albums?
That doesn't make much sense at all boo boo, but what should I expect?

Haha, okay boo boo.
You stick to classic rock and prog, and I'll listen to what I want. Which is far superior (Modest Mouse)

No, being an extremely influencial band makes them worthy, they're a fairly talented and original band (i have heard Gram Parsons and The Byrds 70s material, so don't even try) and as far as impact goes, they pwn every current inductee but Bowie... Your bias is outstanding.

PS. Stop calling other people pretentious.

I think I would rather watch my entire family get fed through a woodchipper than listen to The Eagles, and EVERY artist inducted thus far is a hundred times better than this sh*tty country rock band.
