Killing In The Name.

I know it's such an obvious choice but that song was so radical and original you'd be crazy not to love it.

Same here. Love that song.

Poison took a lot of pointers from Van Halen(not the girly makeup stuff). But they were OK, and put on a good show. And I'll give them props for playing their own instruments, unlike rap artists.

Got any pic's of Steve Harris' wife or mom of the daughter?

Great song by Van Halen. Eddie is the man on this particular song, and many others. I also love Alex's playing on this tune.

It's not "Moving out" is it??

Need more info

Van Halen II is the best ever... but i love them all...

Nunca los has escuchado ... daah ... O te los llego a prestar tu papa? Si algun dia los compras prestamelos ... Vamos un dia a polvos azules a comprar discos pe

I said that in Spanish so you guys wouldn't be able to understand it

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Well, you got me stumped. My spanish consists of 1-10 and the taco bell menu.

Van Halen just got bumped again.

Partial list of bands/artists on the ballot for next year:

John Mellencamp

Sex Pistols

The Stooges

Black Sabbath

Patti Smith

Miles Davis

J.Giels Band

Dave Clark 5

Cat Stevens

Lynard Skynnard

Grand Master Flash (mother fuckin rap. what a disgrace)

Plenty of worthy bands mentioned here, but, what the fuck. Rap is not Rock n Roll.

I forgot to put Van Halen 3 on the list. Sorry to all you Gary Cherone fans..........if there are any

I'll give a slight edge to "Spanish Fly" because it's done on an acoustic guitar.

I've seen Eddie live 7 times, and he plays it on electric guitar, and it sounds even better. Last summer, during Eddie's solo, his son Wolfgang came out playing 316 on Eddie's famous red/white striped guitar. Wolfie and his dad jammed together. Great moment. Wolfgang is 13 or 14, and he can play too. It's in the genes. He looks like Valerie in the face.

Probably the best hard rock band of all time (and that doesn't mean every other hard rock band sucks)!!

I saw Page/Plant in 1996 or 1997. Not the original lineup of course. But it was great. Just seeing Jimmy Page playing that guitar with a smoke hanging from his lips, I'll never forget it.

I love them all, but my favorite is Fair Warning.

Great band. Only saw them once live, great show. All about the music, no great light show or pyro, just music.

Not that I have anything against explosions and great light shows. I love them too.

Pearl Jam didn't need it.

This is tough. But I went with Heartbreaker.

I love just about every Led Zep tune. One tune that is underated is "Out on the Tiles".

I didn't know there was a riot. Hahaha.

I think when there's a DJ it means he's the guy who plays music inbetween acts, but if it's a proper DJ then that must've sucked.

It wasn't as bad as the St.Louis riot in 91. But they did riot, threw some chairs and damaged some of GnR's equipment. It looked like they damaged the soundboard area and camera's.

I was just wondering, in Philly 2002, were the rest of the new GnR at the venue waiting around to see if Axl was going to make it? Or did they not show up either?

Did they even check into the hotel that day, or just fly to LA, knowing the tour was over?

I know Dizzy said something like(when asked about what happened in Philly) "..well, you can blame Clear Channel for that."

I think the paying customers in Philly got one hell of a raw deal. The concert was sold out,(not 1/2 filled) and they had to sit thru a no-name opening act, and then a DJ. A DJ???

You could train a chimpanzee to spin records for an hour. I don't care if the DJ had been with the Beastie Boys or not. And then, it was announced that the show was cancelled.

Anyway, does anyone know if Bucket,Tommy,Robin,Brain,Chris, Richard and Dizzy were in Philly when all hell broke loose? If not, where were they? I guess we won't hear from Axl about this riot until he goes out on tour again.

Yeah, they kind of look alike. And, they both did a lot of drugs. Not that it bothers me.

Sex, Drugs and Rock n Roll.

They both rock!!

How about early Def Leppard(ie: High and Dry)? Before they added the synthesizers(probably spelled that wrong).

Aerosmith, Rolling Stones.

I know, those are obvious, but I can't really think of any other band.

If there's the off chance that anyone here likes them, could you explain what they're like? I know they did a cover of Fleetwood Mac's Tusk, but that's all really.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

I may be wrong, but I THINK some of these guys went on to form Cracker. They did "Eurotrash Girl".

If thats them, I liked Cracker.

Best live shows ever.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

I have seen them 7 times. Only once with Dave, the rest with Sammy. They are great live. I could do without the keyboard songs, but that's just me.

And, Eddie is still smoking cig's, even though he had tounge cancer. I hope that doesn't come back to haunt him. I love him anyway, I just don't want him to die anytime soon.

Eric "slow hand" Clapton

im actually surprised gnr got in before them.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

GNR aren't in the RNRHOF!!!

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Bands are eligible 25 years after their first album is released. I guess GnR won't be eligible until 2011 or 2012.

Gotta go with James Marshall Hendrix!

Eddie all the way!!
