Rock and Roll Hall of Fame - NOT !

Apparently it does not take much these days to get inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. You are not required to be a rock musician or even influential in the genre. For instance check out the 2009 Nominees:

Jeff Beck - Good choice. My personal Favorite as a matter of fact.
Chic - DISCO?? No disco - please no freaking disco!
Wanda Jackson - Yeah, whatever.
Little Anthony and the Imperials - At least it ain't disco but this is NOT a rock band nor were they even remotely influential on the rock scene.
Metallica - Not TOO bad of a choice. They still have nothing on Beck.
Run-D.M.C. - ARE YOU KIDDING ME?
Stooges - At least they were influential in the early rock scene, but they still sucked.
War - This is not a freaking rock band either.
Bobby Womack - Maybe the Soul Train awards but I don't see "rock" anywhere in his autobiography either.

Then again what do you expect. You know they were going down hill as soon as they inducted MADONNA.
