I just placed my Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame vote


For the first time ever, I went ahead and voted for the Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame.

There are sixteen nominees for the 2020 class, with nine first timers (I've noted those with an asterisk).
They are ...
Pat Benatar*
Dave Matthews Band*
Depeche Mode
The Doobie Brothers*
Whitney Houston*
Judas Priest
Karftwerk
MC5
Motorhead*
Nine Inch Nails
The Notorious B.I.G.*
Rufus feat. Chaka Khan
Todd Rundgren
Soundgarden*
T. Rex*
Thin Lizzy*

Today I only voted for three of the nominees: Pat Benatar; The Doobie Brothers; Thin Lizzy
I note that all three are first timers.

Oh yeah, even though you can vote once per day (with up to five nominees per ballot), until voting ends on January 10th, I doubt that I shall vote again.

Who would you vote for and will you actually cast a vote?

Depeche Mode!

Wow, that’s a tough one. There’s some great acts in there. I’d narrow it down to: -
Pat Benatar*
Depeche Mode
Judas Priest
Motorhead*
T. Rex*
Thin Lizzy*

MC5 would be my first vote. I’m not a huge nine inch nails fan but I believe they should be in there because of how influential they’ve been to music.
Will I actually cast a vote? Probably not.

I saw MC5 the other night supporting Alice Cooper - very good.

Thin Lizzy
The Doobie Brothers
Dave Matthews Band

No, I won't cast a vote. Its the jann wenner hall of fame, with a lot of shit not even close to Rock and Roll.

reply

kraftwerk & todd rundgren would get my vote.
mc5 should probably be in as early innovators.

reply

I think Whitney will get in. So will the Doobie Brothers.
