rz,

Judas Priest gets snubbed again. At least Iron Maiden is a nominee. Well deserved though Judas Priest should enter the hall of fame sooner than Iron Maiden.

Not a big metal fan, but I'd have to agree with you. I remember seeing a documentary where they said Rob Halford was personally responsible for the whole "leather and studded collar" look so popular with metal bands. Little did they all realize that the look came from the London gay scene.

And yeah, it's unbelievable that Tina Turner is not already in the HOF.

Tina, Devo, GoGos, Maiden and Todd.
Mary for Tina, fine. For Chaka, weird but fine.
Dolls for Maiden, nuts but fine.
Todd for LL, still don’t get it but ok.
What? One too many? See ya next year Todd!

Yep. Must include 'xyz' lest we offend 'abc' even though 'xyz' has never
even played R&R.

Which begs the question, why 'da-F hasn't Charley Patton been inducted?

Not only love, I saw him on his last tour of the US! One of only two us tours he ever did, apparently.

Me too! Mid ‘80s. Definitely expanded mine.
