Skynyrd
Dick Dale

Sabbath
the others can wait (except ABBA who do not qualify as RnR). (also tempted to add Steve Miller, but I don't see him as that influential). |

Wouldn't you like to know?! | | Join Date: Apr 2000 Location: Atlanta | | | Not a bad list, although the phrase "'bout time!" rings out for a few of them. As for Twisted Sister and Def Leppard, help me out here. Why?

Also, because Dee Snider's just not going to take it anymore.

| | | | What band deserves it more than Iron Maiden?(Judas Priest as much,not more)
Also don't think Sabbath will get in as they failed the past three years.Ozzy wasn't interested anyway.

Why have they never even been an option??? Van Halen is finally getting nominated???? If VH does get picked , will all three singers show up at the ceremony, will we have a Roth-Hagar-Cherone brawl??? If at all Roth and Hagar should come, no Cherone.

| | | | As long as that **** Bryan Adams doesn't get in, I'll be happy...I freakin hate that guy.
Ya Maiden! |

Twisted Sister I don't know about, but Def Leppard deserves some kind of nod, I'd concede.
Remember a little record called "Pyromania"? Mild success. |

It also opens up the question "What is Rock and Roll?" Is Do Wop? How about Abba? Hell, I love the Carpenters, but I don't think they belong in the RnRHoF. Robert Johnson has influenced loads of blues and blues rock guys. Does he belong in the RnRHoF? It's as much of a 'political' decision to let some people in.
Again, it's a subjective "list," whether they meet with your opinions is up to you.
