Well, the latest Hall of Fame inductees were just announced:
RUN DMC
METALLICA
JEFF BECK
BOBBY WOMACK
LITTLE ANTHONY & IMPERIALS
Yawn. It looks like I won't be watching the ceremony on VH1. I've never understood why rap & R&B acts are allowed in when they're clearly not Rock 'n' Roll. There are so many worthy acts who haven't got in and the number announced each year gets fewer and fewer (it used to be as many as nine). Obviously Jann Wenner and the powers that be are going to overlook Prog Rock, New Wave or anyone affiliated with it altogether. I think Genesis and Yes are worthy, as are Hall & Oates to name a few.
