The Rock Hall is continually behind in inductions and the times. As of now thousands of bands and fan favorites, still being played on the radio are not inducted. Its time us, the fans that support them, sign this petition to get these bands inducted.
“We the People of the Rock and Roll Capitol of the World and the fans of Rock all over the world hereby decree…
We want The Bands in our Rock Hall Immediately”
Just to add…MERIT!MERIT!MERIT!
No Chicago? Absolutely ridiculous!Take the politics out of it. Change something!!!!
Change something? It’s past that. They’ve chosen a few nominees this year that aren’t awful, but it doesn’t change the situation that the Rock HOR does not preserve the excitement of the Rock Eras of the 50s, 60s and 70s. There’s just not that kind of immersion. I’ve reached a point of saying someone should start over and have a Rock Hall that’s about the music and the way it impacted our lives in specific times. You just can’t undo the number of musicians that have been inducted that would never be in a real Rock HOF. (grrr……)
I don’t know that I can make any comments that haven’t already been made. The RNRHOF has made it clear that they aren’t interested in making some of the most deserving inductions. We can only keep trying to shame them into acknowledging & correcting so many glaring/overdue omissions, such as Todd Rundgren, Weird Al & The Monkees (my top choices among the still unrecognized).
DOOBIES, WAY OVER DUE YES, STYX, PAT BENATAR, BTO,CHICAGO,KANSAS,SUPERTRAMP, COULD GO ON AND ON….LIKE I SAID BEFORE IF YA AIN’T KISSIN ASS OR SOMEONE THATS IN ISN’T FIGHTING FOR YA YOU GET SNUB YOUR NOT IN THERE SNUB ASS CLUB….AND TO PUT CAT STEVENS IN AFTER WHAT HE DID BULLSHIT…
I do not agree with all of them but I am 95% down with this since 95% of them are real Rock-N-Roll musicians (Janet Jackson, really?)
Yes, really to Janet Jackson. To say she doesn’t rock is a foolish statement.
Other females who deserve induction include PJ Harvey, Bjork, Kate Bush, Sade. Carly Simon is on the fence — and the grossly overrated Pat Benatar will hopefully continue to wait on the sidelines. Give me Cyndi Lauper or Benatar any day.
Induct the CARS already , they are way overdue , so are Yes, they shouldve been inducted years ago along with Blue Oyster Cult, ELO, Grand Funk Railroad , Bachman Turner Overdrive , The Guess Who and the Zombies
Are there no Canadians in the RHF in Cleveland? The Guess Who, BTO, LONG LONG overdue. What can we do to rectify this snub?
This is nothing more than a pet project for Jann Wenner who hand picks his own favorite performers etc. The fact that this jackass has been inducted only proves my point that this is not only a joke but a big ego satisfying project that will keep worthy bands out of the RRHOF. He already stated that he hates prog rock and the Moody Blues – So don’t ever expect to see them inducted along with Jethro Tull and God forbid Yes.
This idiot belongs in the old USSR regime. Comrad, you should be ousted!!
The Rock & Roll HOF is lazy, they just stay in bed!
They don’t want my money, they don’t want no bread.
Well my trying ain’t done no good.
I said my trying ain’t done no good!
They don’t make no effort, no not like they should.
I might consider a visit to the hall, if Deep Purple and Moody Blues induct in 2016. Otherwise, forget it, I’m getting too damn old.
Chicago Yes Journey Bon Jovi Moody Blues

Grand Funk Railroad needs to be in the Hall of Frame . Its long overdue
Agreed! Then Mark Farner might hook back up with Don & Mel to perform, even if for only one night. What a presence those three were!
BOSTON. Only the greatest selling debut album of all time. I have no idea how Deep Purple is not in.
Please give me one valid reason why Bad Company is not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame?
I want grand funk railroad to be elected to the hall of fame!
Moody Blues, Deep Purple, Grand Funk Railroad, Yes, Montrose, Rainbow, Dio…seriously? All these influential bands being left out…it’s a shame…
EVERY YEAR THEY INDUCT R & B BANDS, COUNTRY BANDS, DOOWAP BANDS. THEY ARE NOT ROCK AND ROLL. COME ON NOW, MOODY BLUES, MOTT THE HOOPLE, HUMBLE PIE, CHICAGO. SHOULD I GO ON. GET WITH THE PROGRAM PEOPLE!!!
Deep Purple
The Rock HOF is constantly barraged at annual member meetings about these outrages, to no avail. Somebody should form a real Rock Hall while those of us who experienced the early years of Rock and Roll are still around to impact its accuracy and ability to get it right.
