King Crimson are definitely deserved of the Hall of Fame but I mention Kiss becuase of their influence to hard rock - most artists cite them as a major influence, and they virtually owned the period between 77 and 81 they were so popular they ruled the world. It all went pear shaped when they cut the hair and released Elder, tho I liked it. Then they took the makeupoff and it was downhill from there. The fact they are still together and have a new album shows their longevity and they are still quite popular.

You think Kiss deserve to be in the RnR Hall of Fame? Besides, since King Crimson are not in the Hall, something seriously wrong has been with the Hall for frucking ages.

I just checked and other important artists have been snubbed including:
Devo, Electric Light Orchestra, Emerson Lake & Palmer, Peter Gabriel, King Crimson, Yes. No Iron Maiden, no Judas Priest, No Deep Purple!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 If you look at the list Theres hardly a shred of prog- its all junk rock mostly and from the nostalgic past. Run DMC is in but Rush is not! Beastie Boys are in but Kiss is not.... Tom Waits is in but no Rush........ Abba are in but No RUNAWAYS - they pioneered girl rock groups we have on the list: in chronological order of being inducted The Beatles - prog related on some album but really.... no surprise they are so essential The Who - again related to prog in certain songs - again just essential rock The Jimi Hendrix Experience - some tracks have prog elements but no surprises hes in The Doors - More prog related stuff but essential of course to rock Led Zeppelin - prog related - essential to rock totally Frank Zappa - perhaps the most proggy act so far but more into jazz fusion as we know David Bowie - prog related again but no surprise hes in Jefferson Airplane- lovely to see these psych proggers in Pink Floyd - the first full blown prog band in so far, but they are so popular they had to get in Santana - nice to see these jazz fusion guys in Queen - did you doubt it? the masters of rock Steely Dan - well there ya go Traffic - nice to see some proto prog Black Sabbath - ah yes that must have pleased Ozzy - they should be there but so should Deep Purple! Miles Davis - Miles Smiles at this legendary inductee Metallica - yay two horns up for the sole thrash metal act inductee Genesis - gotta be happy with that but they snubbed Peter Gabriel as a sole artist Rock and Roll Hall of Lame is more like it/ Edited by AtomicCrimsonRush - November 05 2012 at 15:02 |

If Rush and Deep Purple do not get in something seriously is wrong here.  I cant believe Purple aint in yet - what a Joke - they are pioneers for petes sake!!!!!!!!!!!  I KNOW aLICE cOOPER ONLY GOT IN RECENTLY AND AGAIN he should have been considered yonks ago. It really is a farce. Kiss arent even in it! KISS!!!!!!! They ARE rock and roll.

I wonder when the establishment changes its name to the more truthful Western Popular Music Hall of Fame.

I would love to see both Rush and Deep Purple get in to the Hall of Fame. I mean, not only are they actually rock and roll, they rock better than just about anybody else.

I never paid much attention to this rock and or roll hall of frames. Why would anyone want a Bruce Springsteen door frame made out of gravel and bread?

I know it's been said a few times before and this post of mine would be redundant, but ... here it goes:
And there ain't no f$#king way Kraftwerk are gonna have their spot in the RnR HoF. And they ain't gonna be there on the ceremony. C'mon ... you know Hutter and Schneider. They are too clever for that. They have their own opinions and values. I'm pretty sure they'd be clever enough to refuse to show up.

That would be pretty cool though. A show of hands. Just that: a show packed full of hands doing various things and sounds.
