| Rush Makes Rock N Roll Hall of Fame (Posted on 12/11/12 at 3:51 pm)
Do you think that they belong? I think that it's a joke they weren't already in, especially given some of the artists who are. Now, Donna Summer is going in. Unreal.

I heard this news today too. I'm surprised they weren't in it already.

RnR HoF is a joke. Doesn't matter who is in.

Well, the only reason to care about the RnR HOF is gone. I don't care who is enshrined, but I absolutely loved how pissed off Rush fans got over having their band be overlooked. Now that they're in, it's not nearly as funny.
Cool that Public Enemy is getting inducted though. Flav has to get paroled to attend, which is as rock n roll as you get.

It is about time. Should have happened a long time ago. Rock And Roll HOF is a joke, as KISS belonged in there years ago too. I don't think the Hall knows what rock and roll even is, as evident by some of their choices for induction.

You bet your arse it is. They were the most rock n roll act around in 1989. They had Time magazine condemning them.

How do you snub KISS and Deep Purple year after year, as well as other deserving ROCK bands?
Great article about this travesty!
Public Freakin Enemy? Donna Freakin Summer? What do these acts have to do with Rock and Roll? Not a damn thing!
