I was inspired by the Guilty Pleasures thread to bring this up. Just read online that the next group of 5 inductees to the Hall will be announced on Jan. 8, 2007 and come from this list of 9 nominees: Chic, Dave Clark 5, Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five, R.E.M., Patti Smith, The Stooges, Joe Tex and Van Halen.
Other than some really questionable "rock and roll" credentials for some of these nominees, I'm surprised at how hard they try to have an extremely broad spectrum for their possible choices, but this thread should be about who you think the Hall have screwed over the most; or who you think belongs in the hall much more than any of these acts and you can't take the hall seriously because your favorite acts haven't been inducted??
Personally, I can't believe neither Genesis, Yes or Kate Bush are in the hall.
Your choices??
