- ihavebeenseen, on 09/24/2009, -2/+50LL Cool J = Rock and Roll??? Granted he is going to knock somebody out, but not rock somebody out.
- bossm4n, on 09/24/2009, -1/+44Donna Summer but still no Rush? Tell me again why this is the Rock and Roll hall of fame.
- sHockz, on 09/24/2009, -3/+27just as long as KISS isn't inducted I'll be fine. I think RHCP is a good choice, they make excellent music. I just couldn't stand to see Gene Simmons ego fed any more than it already has been...plus he is a giant ***** douche bag who gives the RIAA butt love every night.
- RachelJTM, on 09/24/2009, -6/+28they deserve it
- rockytop9808, on 09/24/2009, -6/+27I can't believe the awful music that is Kiss is up for it.
- NasserInASaucer, on 09/24/2009, -1/+19Still no sign of Rush!
Seriously dude, how aboot a little canada eh? - inactive, on 09/24/2009, -8/+26Yeah, the Chili Peppers several masterful albums and about 25 hits vs. that one song by the Stooges that sucks.
- inactive, on 09/24/2009, -7/+22Rock and Roll hall of fame is stupid. The museum itself ***** kicks ass (Ive been there) but the whole thought of being inducted into a hall of fame for being a musician seems... stupid.
- inactive, on 09/24/2009, -2/+16LL Cool J? It is called Hall Of Fame not Fall From Fame!
- LordBalderdash, on 09/24/2009, -0/+1323 years into this ***** and they're still completely ignoring deep purple.
they should rename that place the 'hall of random musicians'. - StigNordas, on 09/24/2009, -5/+17Well deserved!
- EricSchC1, on 09/24/2009, -1/+13While all those things are most definitely awesome, none of them makes a band or a band's music great.
- AmyVernon, on 09/24/2009, -21/+32I like the Chili Peppers and all, but if they get in before The Stooges, there's something wrong.
- rwbrinso, on 09/24/2009, -2/+13For the first time in my entire life, I will now say, "there need to be penises and socks involved."
- eyean540, on 09/24/2009, -0/+11BSSM alone qualifies them for this!
- blitzwing85, on 09/24/2009, -0/+10Year 2029 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame candidates will include Britney Spears, The Spice Girls, Milli Vanilli, and Nickelback.
- Elset, on 09/24/2009, -3/+13RHCP is my favorite band.
And LL Cool J, seriously? - larryjr88, on 09/24/2009, -0/+10The Rock and Roll hall of fame means nothing.
Seriously, google the list and look at it. 50% isn't even rock.
FFS, Michael Jackson and Madonna are on it. How credible can it be? - icepick314, on 09/24/2009, -1/+9ABBA isn't in yet?
that's surprising..... - b3astie, on 09/24/2009, -0/+8I hope they don't get stopped by a lady cop, in their automobile.
- TheyCMeTrollin, on 09/24/2009, -1/+9rock and roll hall of fame is pretty much for musicians in general
- adamward, on 09/24/2009, -0/+7No one got the reference! I'll digg you up for it anyways.
Shame on all of you, go listen to "Pea" right now. - WhiteMike87, on 09/24/2009, -2/+9Even though the stooges were one of the first punk/alternative rock bands. The chili peppers would not have existed without them.
- meme0007, on 09/24/2009, -1/+8Well deserved. Love their music!
- cdw1212, on 09/24/2009, -0/+7RHCP = good.
Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame = Suck. - Maxwell1234, on 09/24/2009, -1/+7I would digg this 10,000 times if I could... way overated.
- Jaydo, on 09/24/2009, -2/+8While I believe RHCP definitely deserves to be in there sometime, I still can't believe how many other artists who have been more successful, more inspiring and generally more legendary still aren't in there.
I mean for *****'s sake, RUSH!
Sidenote: Genesis and ABBA for the win. - spanknrankn, on 09/24/2009, -0/+6i'm a pacifist, so i can ***** your ***** up.
- Merp08, on 09/24/2009, -5/+11It's just you.
- TheSkunkMonkey, on 09/24/2009, -0/+6Once they started inducting artists that have NO connection to Rock & Roll, they lost all credibility. While LL Cool J is a great artist and I like some of his tunes, he has NO business being inducted.
What's next? Led Zeppelin being inducted into the Rap Hall of Fame? - Nuttmeg, on 09/24/2009, -0/+6Where is Fishbone's nomination?
- inactive, on 09/24/2009, -1/+6If it is open to any musician than call it the Music Hall of Fame, but Grandmaster Flash ain't rock as talented as he may be.
- Bkkgnar, on 09/24/2009, -1/+6Wow, you're a moron.
- LongLiveRock2, on 09/24/2009, -2/+7Still no Rush?
- bobburn1, on 09/24/2009, -0/+5Maybe not milli vanilli, but Britney Spears and the Spice Girls will definitely make it.
- bobburn1, on 09/24/2009, -6/+11Buried for the continuation of non-rock bands being included and the lack of Rush.
- tastic, on 09/24/2009, -0/+5MSNBC actually did a recent article on why Rush and other "prog rock" types have been excluded - http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/29903313/
- inactive, on 09/24/2009, -2/+6The whole RRHOF is *****, first off Cleveland is a fine city but it has nothing historic related to Rock one bit, and second it is just a personal pet project from the founder of Rolling Stone to suck the dicks and pussies of his favorite musicians regardless of whether they belong in there or not, see Madonna, Grandmaster Flash and now LL Cool J as examples.
- livefromheaven, on 09/24/2009, -1/+5100% in favor of this
- VarelseSoul, on 09/24/2009, -1/+5That's Califorincation, not California.
- Ascus, on 09/24/2009, -0/+4I have yet to figure out what is the criteria for the RRHOF. Its more of a Pop Music Hall of Fame.
- alea10, on 09/24/2009, -7/+11Is it just me, or do the Chili Peppers keep getting better and better?
- mrsurfboard, on 09/24/2009, -1/+5Genesis has more musical talent then any other act on that list. Their early work is some of the most complex music I've ever heard. Their live concerts sound as good or better then their records. No auto tune or lip syncing here. It amazes me that hack bands seem to get inducted all the time, when really good acts don't seem to make it.
- MothBoy, on 09/24/2009, -0/+4What is the difference?
None of them can sing their own crap live! - bossm4n, on 09/24/2009, -0/+4I agree with you. Another ridiculous oversight.
- cmer, on 09/24/2009, -1/+5If LL Cool J gets in, the Spice Girls have to be inducted next.
- bobburn1, on 09/24/2009, -1/+5yeah, but this isn't the hip hop or rap hall of fame, GM flash is not a rock n' roll musician. He doesn't deserve to be in there. RnR hall of fame is a joke.
- bwseaver, on 09/24/2009, -1/+5No. Just because you thought you meant something doesn't mean that you've actually expressed your thoughts clearly.
- bossm4n, on 09/24/2009, -0/+3Good article. Thanks for posting that.
- TheSkunkMonkey, on 09/24/2009, -0/+3Actually, it's for anyone the editors and owners of Rolling Stone Magazine deem worthy. To call it the "Rock & Roll" hall of fame is deceptive and disingenuous.
