Eminem #2 ??? Heโ€™s not a rock star and never will be. You have to wonder what criteria they use. ๐Ÿ˜ฎ 

Looks like Pat Benetar may be voted in, and Judas Priest might finally be acknowledged.

Agree on Eminem but he clearly has a fan base. These are fan voted so as I

said before, the hall does what it wants.
So 
weโ€™ll see. Hoping for a surge in

votes for Carly Simon as sheโ€™s not

far behind

My choices are Duran Duran and Pat Benetar. When the heck are the Grass Roots going to be nominated and enshrined? When Eminem is nominated and they made Chicago wait years to even get nominated then you know there's something wrong with the process at the HOF. The Grass Roots are more qualified than Eminem for the "Rock and Roll" Hall of Fame!

Agree on the Grassroots. They should be

in there!

Actually the fan vote means very little to

them. They say they incorporate it. In 2020

my brother actually called them to complain

about some fan vote leaders who didnโ€™t get

in that year, and the guy gave him quite the

bs story. Apparently no matter where they get

ranked by the fans, the hall gets the final say.

To me, the fan vote seems to mean nothing

The only on the list that I'm in favor of is Pat Benetar. Dolly Parton...seriously.

It took a huge fan effort to get the Moody Blues in finally. I don't think there are many groups who have the fan base to get it done.

Right! Dolly Parton is a long time member of Country Music HoF, and deservedly so. But I wouldnโ€™t expect to go there and find Stevie Nicks!

Disagree about Dolly. Sheโ€™s a music

icon who has influenced pop culture

despite her country roots. If they can

put rappers in and Johnny Cash as well, then she deserves to be there. Jmo ๐Ÿ˜Ž

Most of the people on this list are pop stars, and have nothing to do with rock. There are several that Iโ€™ve never heard of. I gave up on RnRHoF some time ago. Itโ€™s totally commercialized.When there are real rock bands still out there like Steppenwolf, The Guess Who, Three Dog Night, Bad Company, BOC, Scorpions,  etc, that have not been recognized, I see no sense in recognizing RnRHoF as an institution. ๐Ÿ‘Ž Sorry! ๐Ÿ˜•
