That lineup sucks more than the fantasy camp's does. Drew, you need to start the MR HOF.

**Yawn**

Journey will never get in. Especially with their newest clusterfuck.

I thought he already had one.
And the nominees are:
*Monker
*HOTS
*Dean
*Larry/Susie
*AR
*TVL
*St John

seems like a deserving bunch.

The Dave Clark Five? They were good, but while they are at it why not include: Chad and Jeremy, Peter and Gordon, Gerry and the Pacemakers, Freddie and the Dreamers, the Animals, the Zombies, Wayne Fontana and the Mindbenders, Manfred Mann, Petula Clark and every other British Invasion performer?

They were all good, but why the DC5? Okay, Mike Smith was cute but really, does that make one eligible

Hell, let's add Paul Revere and the Raiders, the Grass Roots, the Guess Who.....good bands, every one.

I just don't get the whole RnR HOF thing.

The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame has announced its latest class of inductees, who include Madonna, John Mellencamp, songwriter Leonard Cohen, surf-rock pioneers the Ventures, and British Invasion act the Dave Clark Five, rollingstone.com reported Thursday (December 13th). Kenny Gamble and Leon Huff, the influential Philly Soul songwriter/producer team, will be presented with the Ahmet Ertegun Award, which was previously known as the non-performer category, and is now named after the late Rock Hall founder and Atlantic Records chief. Blues harmonica player Little Walter will be inducted in the sideman category.

The inductees will officially enter the hall at the annual ceremony, to be held March 10th at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel in New York City.

Acts on this year's ballot but not receiving enough votes from members to be inducted include the Beastie Boys, Chic, Donna Summer, and Afrika Bambaata.
To be eligible, acts must have released their first single no later than 25 years ago, in this case 1982.
The Rock Hall came under fire last year when it was reported that Hall exec and Rolling Stone publisher Jann Wenner rigged the results to induct Grandmaster Flash

You seem to be discussing the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Museum in Cleveland.

The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Foundation is in NYC. This is the group that does the nominating and the voting.

Terry Stewart, the head of the Museum is a good guy (and a signer of the Journey petition) . He is also on the Executive Committee of the RnRHoF foundation and a voting member.
