Well…there are two ways to answer this question.
The 1st way is to list who you really, really think should be in the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame. You would have to make sure the pioneers of rock were in there, even if you don’t listen to them that much.
The 2nd way is to take your specific life, and take the bands (no matter how unknown) that helped mold you into the person you are now…and have your own personal Hall of Fame that means the world to only you.
This seems like the more fun way to do it…so I will make this kind of list.
1. Pat Benatar
2. Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young
3. Iron Maiden
4. Elton John
5. The Clarks
6. Social Distortion
7. Kiss
8. Pearl Jam
9. Soundgarden
10. Pink Floyd
11. The Cult
12. Rush
13. The Beatles
14. Alan Parsons Project
15. Black Sabbath
16. Bob Seger & the Silver Bullet Band
17. Monster Magnet
18. Circus of Power
19. Counting Crows
20. Cracker
21. Dio
22. Dokken
23. Everclear
24. Led Zeppelin
25. Fleetwood Mac
26. The Front
27. John Mellencamp
28. Mary-Chapin Carpenter
29. Megadeth
30. Phish
31. Muder By Death
32. Neil Diamond
33. Oingo Boingo
34. Ozzy Osbourne
35. Judas Priest
36. Red Hot Chili Peppers
37. Screamin’ Cheetah Wheelies
38. Smashing Pumpkins
39. Supertramp
40. Queensryche
41. Van Halen
42. White Stripes
43. The Allman Brothers Band
44. Metallica
45. The Band
46. Bob Dylan
47. Nine Inch Nails
48. Hank Williams, Jr.
49. The London Quireboys
50. The Rolling Stones
I would not be the person I am now, if it wasn’t for these 50 artists. So, this is my personal Hall of Fame.

Sadly, the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland, OH is most likely to induct the following: Janet Jackson Cyndi Lauper Matchbox 20 Snoop Dogg The White Stripes Gloria Estefan & Yoko Ohno I don't think The Whitestripes would be too sad. They're pretty good IMO. ...and Cindi Lauper has some talent and although I don't listen to MJ I understand his impact on pop music. I think that might be why the Rock Hall gets a bad rap because of it's name. If it was "Popular Music Hall Of Fame" I think people might have less of an ax to grind with them. Using the Rock moniker starts the argument what is considered rock and so on. Also, it's run by a bunch of snobs. |
