Voltaire 4,562 Posted May 25, 2018 27. Lynyrd Skynyrd > Formed in: Jacksonville, Florida in 1968 ----- Jacksonville, Florida? Really? So we had a 1/50 shot that the song would have been called Sweet Home Michigan instead? D@mn. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Voltaire 4,562 Posted May 25, 2018 It's a pretty good list. Can argue about who goes where. Who's too high or too low. What I rally like is that, unlike certain Hall of Fames I could mention, whoever put this list together at least knows what rock music is. (I can choke down the punk rock groups).

DonS 3,067 Posted May 25, 2018 Well Rush does suck... I appreciate that some people can't stand Geddy's voice, but even a Rush hater has to admire their longevity and talent. At least in comparison to focking Nickleback at the very least. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Voltaire 4,562 Posted May 25, 2018 I don't even know who One Republic is... now get off my focking lawn!!!! Eh ... I give the 90s and later bands a pass. I don't know what's going on with them. Same with punk. If I had made the list there would be neither on it and even I know that's just not right or fair. What makes me happy is what was left off. I don't look or care who the Rock and Roll "Hall of Fame" nominates and inducts anymore. I use to participate in those threads cursing every year. Now I just gave up. I don't even open them. It's beyond pathetic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Voltaire 4,562 Posted May 25, 2018 The list starts with the British invasion apparently. Even Elvis fails to appear. Including earlier acts also could have scored some nice, entirely merit based racial diversity too, not affirmative craption nor rap/pop/disco disguised as rock. Also 80s bands are shortchanged. The bias against 'hair bands" always pisses me off. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RaiderHaters Revenge 3,589 Posted May 25, 2018 maybe polls, how many can each poll hold? This could be a great draft idea. Rock bands No genre or decade. Just get however many people want to go and pick 100-150 bands. And no voting at the end, go get who you like nzoner would. something like 12 vote for 2 based off their list our list would be top 12 they have and as 2 move on we add 2 more.
