Do you believe the Rock Hall should be forced to erase their inductees and start over by disqualifying and eliminating pop, soul and funk artists and rappers like the Beastie Boys? How many are outraged by this?

There are ALOT of rock artist that belong in the Rock N' Roll Hall of Fame and rush is one of them. The Rock N' Roll Hall of Fame is a joke, and being in it says nothing about the artist quality. Once and a while they put bands that deserve to be in like Metallica, Guns N' Roses,and Alice Copper so they can live up to there name. But, because it isn't run by the fans (like it should be) people like Madonna are in it and not deserving bands/artist like KISS, Rush, Deep Purple, Ted Nugent, Journey, Motley Crue, Dio, The Scorpions, Iron Maiden, Ozzy Osborne, Judas Priest, Def Leppard, Bon Jovi, Joan Jett, etc. are NOT in :(

The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is ironically the least rock n roll institution that ever existed. Grandmaster Flash and Donna Summer are in there but not Rush, Kiss, Iron Maiden, Cheap Trick, Lou Reed and Def Leppard, I think they should keep a lot of the rock pioneers who werent necessarily rock but blues and country like Hank Williams and Robert Johnson and also stars who werent rock but incorporated rock and influenced it like Michael Jackson and Run DMC. That Rock n Roll Hall of Fame is basically a trash dump as far as I and other real rock fans are concerned and its just better to pretend it doesnt exist.

The hall of fame is a joke, rappers and pop artists should be kicked out, funk and soul can stay. I can't wait for the day when someone is inducted, declines, and says "f*ck you" to the hall of fame.

i will call a number of, purely in case different individuals nominate lots of those that i'm naming Leprosy - an familiar solid dude. A non-hassle-maker, yet doesn't pull any punches Mr. Fitzwell - a classic fashionable of mine. A professed drummer, he keeps issues interesting inclusive of his wit Darth Karl - my maximum longtime contact and chum. A venerable professional of maximum matters reachable Rikitivitavi - a bona fide best buddy on the following Rainbow contained in the darkish - my maximum modern chum. She's extremely valuable to me, and extremely interesting Helter Skelter - this guy is cool. i did not even do not forget that he became once Icon Killer Peaches - a wealth of advice. a minimum of it seems that way by the point you study by his encyclopedic solutions i did not advise to go away genuinely genuinely everyone out, yet i'm proscribing myself

yeah, but they shouldn't eliminate Beastie Boys lol, they're obviously punk/rock influenced and they at least use some instruments.

Yes they should among many other great bands. Like Alice Cooper said, "I think me getting in has finally open the doors for other great bands to get in".
