If Rush doesn't make it in, I'll be surprised.

Not because they're good, but because their fanbase is so elitist.

But they ARE good!!!!

I've voted Rush and Deep Purple, if either of those got in I'd be happy.

These two are long overdue. Hell, the fact that Deep Purple made one of the most iconic riffs of all time and only got a shot at this just now is pretty sad. I'll be content as long as either of them make it next year.

Oh, oh, the band Rush. I thought you were talking about Rush Limbaugh.

If there's a Hall of Fame for annoying people, he would probably be in there.

It's fucking ridiculous that Rush and Deep Purple both have still not been inducted.

I like Switchfoot and Loudmouth more. But they are still good - heard them first on NFS Hot Pursuit 2.

Its about fucking time!
Hell it took em long enough to induct Iggy Pop and they still haven't inducted Kiss.
If neither Rush or Deep Purple dont get inducted I will be severely pissed at the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame.
Though I wouldn't mind if Procol Harum were inducted. That ones long overdue as well as Joan Jett.
Also I could have sworn Heart were in there already...guess I was wrong ._.

I'd still query about Iron Maiden but the fact that Rush and Deep Purple are likely to be inducted next year is pleasing enough. I was disappointed enough they had Guns N' Roses this year but this so far is almost making me forget that.

I'm more inclined to care about Deep Purple and Heart, and even N.W.A. being inducted. Don't care about any other musicians on that list.

I sure hope Rush and Kraftwerk get in.

Even though I don't see how Kraftwerk or N.W.A. are rock n roll, but I'll roll with it. Eh? Eh?

The Rn'R Hall of Fame is a joke. I don't even pay attention to most classic rock anymore, but there is so much influential material being tossed out the window to make way for bands that deserve none of this.

Where's Yes, for example. One of the most influential and talented prog rock bands on the planet?

They probably vote based on what they hear on shitty classic rock radio. If you give a band more of a listen than the same 4-6 hit songs, you'll find them to be a whole different band, with so much better music. Rush is a huge example of this.
