Hall of Fame or Shame: The Music - Inductees Discussion Thread

[JaseSF]

Bad Company was very slowly, which shows they do have some fans out there, put to shame. Now they're in um...bad company    . Sorry couldn't resist.

[Mr. DS]

I do enjoy Bad Company and find Paul Rogers to be a strong vocalist.  Matter of fact, I even dug their cheesy strip club-ish stuff from the 80s.  However, they were in the wrong place at the wrong time in the game.

Johnny Cash is a great choice.  I love so many of his songs.  I would vote to save him, but the problem is, if I do, I would be helping to put him in the same category as Michael Jackson.  There's no way I am going to do that to the man in black.

Just a note: Updated Hall list is on page 4.

Styx enters the Hall of Shame rather easily. Surprised they didn't seem to have any defenders but they were up against some quality opposition.

[JaseSF]

And Johnny Cash does indeed enter the Hall of Fame.

[Mr. DS]

Styx is a good band but like Jasse said, competition kind of wasted it away.  JC was a shoe in for HOF.

Willie Nelson joins the Hall of Fame while Muddy Waters joins Shame. Updated list on page 4.

[JaseSF]

The Ramones quickly go into the Hall of Fame with practically no opposition. They truly belong in a music Hall of Fame IMO. Just fantastic, unique songs and performances from them.

[JaseSF]

The Red Hot Chili Peppers join the Hall of Shame. Kinda surprised to see them go there so easily as I always thought they had a good following. I like some of their stuff but I don't find anything of theirs to be essential or anything.

[JaseSF]

Elvis Presley, the King of Rock 'n' Roll joins the Hall of Fame. It was pretty much a given he would I think. Honestly I expected a little opposition but there was practically none.

[Psycho Circus]

Muddy Waters joins Shame.

What a f**king joke.

[Leah]

What the hell, MEGADETH enters the HALL OF SHAME?! dis is BS!

[JaseSF]

Megadeath indeed joins the Hall of Shame. They did have some support, like Muddy Waters too, but not enough it seems.

[JaseSF]

U2 joins the Hall of Shame. I've always thought they were a pretty good band but their work seems a little uneven. The Joshua Tree was fantastic IMO but everything else kind of pales next to it although I've enjoyed some tunes here and there.
