Rock Hall Of Fame, more or less a glorified pissing contest anymore and really, it means next to nothing.

Took 9 years for Zeppelin to get in. Nuff said.

No damn joke, it is ridiculous.

I mean, really, Green Day? WHY? They could have done worse and put in Nickelback over Nine Inch Nails, but still, this is complete BS. Nickelback wasn't a nominee, thank god...

I thought everyone thought the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame was ridiculous aside from the bands who got in.

Rap isn't music. Discuss.

Hang on, let me go find a bunch of semi-racist comments from the internet first.

My opinion is the same. But I can't help but notice when, again, a far better band somehow, baffling as it is, doesn't get in when some mediocre one does.

It's a Jann Wenner popularity contest thing.

But someone like me, you, Trollheart, Frownland, Unknown Soldier up in that thing...we'd put the ones that really deserve it in, and I'd pull out, if possible, all the BS inductee's over the years. But, then we'd get sued. I feel it'd be worth it.

And before someone teases me about it no, I would not put Bush in the Rock Hall Of Fame.

I never knew this. That's so sick.

I just like Mike Love's induction speech.

And regarding Morrison: I'm normally skeptical about alternative celebrity death theories, but yeah, I'm pretty sure that was the case.
