Yes should have been included, Janet Jackson should been inducted before N.W.A., The Smiths and Nine Inch Nails deserve a shot, The Cars? Not so much, they were basically Ric Ocasek and 4 other guys who don't count. Deep Purple should have been in long ago. Then again, the R&R HoF has been a joke for years, so I can't say I'm the least bit surprised that they blew it again this year.
By way if justifying their decision, a representative of the Rock &Roll HOF released the short statement: "There'll be no mutant enemy we shall certify
Political ends as sad remains will die"
Anybody ever been to the R&R HoF? It's weirdly disappointing, or was to me. The building is all I M Pei cool and stuff, but the contents are sort of meh. It's like going to the art museum and seeing nothing but brushes and easels instead of actual paintings. Jimi's fringed jacket! Wow! Huh?
Such roundabouts. Over the years the selection cttee have been a bunch of petty egos in so many ways.

Thin Lizzy was robbed!
if only they had written that 701st song…
Are we sure it wasn't 700 takes of one song? "No, I told you, this song is in A, not C!"
Regarding Yes – Theirs is no disgrace?
that's a roundabout way of putting it…
But they said yes to Cheap Trick? Time for my usual:
Oh, for fuck's sake.
Jesus, was this entire lineup chosen by middle-aged suburban ex-frat douches?
Chic have been nominated TEN FUCKING TIMES and still can't get in?!!!??!?
Christ on a pogo stick. Whose dog did Nile Rodgers repeatedly run over?
