How the fuck does LL Cool J have 4 nominations and Priest only gets nominated now and Link Wray only has 2, and they're more recent than LL's. Now, I don't hate LL but it is what it is for Christ's sake.

I don’t pay attention to that disaster, but I’ve got to say I’m surprised Priest is not already in there.
How stupid.

Because people suck.

Fuck the RnR HoF.

Founder Ahmet Ertegun assembled a team that included attorney Suzan Evans, Rolling Stone magazine editor and publisher Jann S. Wenner, attorney Allen Grubman, and record executives Seymour Stein, Bob Krasnow, and Noreen Woods.

A perfect example of how a group of dumbfucks with more $$$ than brains or expertise (who obviously enjoy stroking each other) can screw up a good thing.

Jann Wenner is a big part of why it sucks, too.

What a joke

The R&R Hall of Fame is bullshit and the people behind it don't know what the hell rock & roll is. With people like Madonna, Etta James, Artetha Franklin... and now LL Cool J? Come on man, that's just utter politically-correct, Hollywoodized bullshit. It's time to create and reestablish a REAL rock & roll hall of fame around a framework of rules that ensure that ONLY rock & rollers are included. One prerequisite to ALL rock is predominant distortion guitar. Just because Madonna posed with a Les Paul doesn't make her a rocker.

I recently visited the RnR Hall of Fame.
The 1st sub level floor had some interesting displays, Don Felders white double neck, DIcky Betts gold top LP, a come of Hendrix guitars, John Paul Jones Alembic bass and some other stuff.
As you go up in floors in the pyramid building it gets lamer and lamer.
If you get a chance to go it's worth it but I wouldn't go again. I think it's over hyped.
