No Pixies No Sonic Youth No Joy Division the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is not run by serious people


The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is silly bullshite (God bless David Bowie for not even showing up to his induction), but it’s ridiculous those three bands aren’t in. They all had a hell of a lot more lasting influence than Foreigner did.

Can someone explain to me why Tribe Called Quest is now a hall of fame band/group?

I have every one of Foreigner's first six albums. I couldn't name one song from The Pixies, Joy Division, or Sonic Youth. I can hear a Foreigner song on the radio every day. To the best of my knowledge I have never heard The Pixies, Joy Division or Sonic Youth on the radio. The only people those bands ever influenced are music critics and Depeche Mode.

I think younger posters underestimate how huge Foreigner was in the late 70’s through 80’s. I’m honestly shocked they aren’t already in.
