Georgy Zhukov Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 If they get all of Deep Purple on stage I doubt they will play. They will more likely fight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dalsh327 Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 Dave Marsh had also said that the HBO specials are influencing the inductions (he's the guy who supposedly kept KISS out of the Rock Hall). At least as a committee member, he acknowledged T-Rex not being in the running and hard rock & metal being underrepresented. Punk rock is barely on the radar. Green Day really was a joke as far as inductions go because they're far from influential. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strange Broue Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 (edited) Evans, gillan, coverdale, hughes, lord, glover, paice, blackmore are the ones being inductedBasically the right ones, although is Nick Simper not being included just cause he's not famous? 3 albums.Hey i would throw in everybody excluding Joe Lynn TurnerCheap TrickChicagoDeep PurpleN.W.ASteve MillerReally surprised NIN didn't make it, but that's a great list.4 shitrocks, no chic, no ninawfulummm. this RNRHOF thing should be about shit rockno chic and no NIN?geeez, neckbeard PC principal arrived....If they get all of Deep Purple on stage I doubt they will play.

DR DOOM Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 Are you implying that Cheap Trick and Steve Miller are more influential rock acts than NIN?Live at Budokan, man.You seem to be implying that NIN reinvented the wheel or something, are NIN that influential? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bacardimayne Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 (edited) I wouldn't care about Chic not being inducted if they hadn't been nominated, as they're not really a rock act, but nominating them and then neglecting to induct them suggests that the Hall sees them as qualified for discussion, but not as good/influential/innovative as Steve Miller. That's fucking horseshit. Steve Miller, Cheap Trick and Chicago are just three generic shit-rock bands that happened to be around making shit-rock when shit-rock was a thing. Nile Rodgers has more talent in his strumming hand than everyone else on the nomination list combined.You can argue about how important industrial rock is, but the fact is NIN basically popularized it. They're to industrial as Black Sabbath was to metal. So to the Hall, I guess having a few shit-rock hits is more worthy of induction than innovating a sub-genre.

They've set a precedent that they'll be inducting hip hop artists among others and that the Hall is no longer just about rock. Probably a good move for their survival as the years go by and they have less 70s classic rock bands to induct..

They're one of few rock bands in the 2000s to achieve mainstream success at a level similar to top pop artists. The world doesn't revolve around classic rock fans' opinions.

They would deserve this for a long time...You are just wants to be edgy all the time. i'm losing what exactly? Your musical knowledge is questionable at best so that was rich coming from you....Pistols and Ramones have more fans and they sold more records.

dalsh327 Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 (edited) So far - Peter Cetera hasn't confirmed or denied he is or isn't playing with Chicago. Danny Seraphine will be playing drums for Chicago. Ian Gillan was pissed Steve Morse wasn't inducted, and Tommy Bolin should have been included (Glenn Hughes will mention him at the induction). Bun E. can't stand Robin Zander but he'll be playing. Edited February 7, 2016 by dalsh327 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunsfanoldie Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 Bun E. can't stand Robin Zander but he'll be playing. According to Eddie Trunk:Interviewed Rick I didn't actually hear the interview, but from Eddie's blog just posted he says: "Rick said the band would be totally fine playing again with Bun E for the induction." "For CT expect the original band to play and it to be pretty smooth." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunsfanoldie Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 Deep Purple is gonna be a shit show, but thats not surprising. They're lucky this is the year Richie is back in rock, so its the best chance they have of him showing up. As for the rest of the band, it was always gonna be bumpy. I like Bolin, but he really added nothing to the legacy. I like Come Taste The Band, but they're honoring the classic members of the band. I get why he's not in there. Same with Steve Morse. I applaud them for continuing with him but he means nothing to the legacy. I'm just happy they got Coverdale and Hughes, which they could have skipped. Thank god they weren't that stupid cause that would have made no sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stiff Competition Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 Ha....people calling cheap trick a generic rock band are sad, sad little teenagers. Generally that's how it goes though. In the public's eye, they are nothing special but within the industry, they are one of the most respected bands there is. Anyhow, I'm flying out to New York to see them get inducted as well as catching an Ace Frehley show a couple days later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
