And Genesis probably only made it because of mid-80's Phil-era pop shite

So they could have rooom for:
The Beastie Boys
Grandmaster Flash
Parliament Funk
Public Enemy
Run DMC
Sex Pistols
Patti Smith
Donna Summers
and mos of all Jann Wenner

Because they pale by comparison to Green Day or Joan Jett & the Blackhearts in their contributions to culture.
The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is a steaming pile of crap. It took the pretentious bastards 3 years to induct the Beatles for God's sake. That's like leaving Babe Ruth out of the Baseball Hall of Fame.

i saw tull in concert while in college. they did the whole "thick as a brick" album non-stop.
great band, and very deserving to be in HoF!

Because the RnR HoF is a joke. They have hip hop artists but not SRV, YES, Tull, Croce, etc.

All of those artists SHOULD be in the Hall.

Music, sure. Rock and Roll, not so much.

The very first RRHOF class included Ray Charles, James Brown, Sam cooke, the Everly Brothers, and Fats Domino. The horse was out of the barn right away. Johnny Cash is in the RRHOF. So is Aretha Franklin. You're advocating a definition of rock n roll the hall has never, ever endorsed.

the Everly Brothers
If you let Run DMC, Beastie Boys, and Public Enemy in then there should be a hip hop artist being entered every induction

Nothing, I love the Everly Brothers. they just aren't really a rock band.
Well, you could easily make the argument that Run DMC, the Beasties, and Public Enemy are the three greatest hip hop acts, so that's like saying that if we let Zeppelin, Queen, and the Rolling Stones in, we have to let in every blues based British rock band... which they do seem to be trying to do.

But either way, they are A LOT closer to Rock n Roll than Run DMC, the Beasties, and Public Enemy. I'm not knocking their work. It would be insane to not give them respect for what they did.
