Should (list of bands) Be In The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame?

[Cubecubed]

Personally I wouldn't even classify Green Day or Dookie as punk. Maybe I would call it punk dumbed down for the masses. If they were really a punk band they would have done everything possible to sabatoge their career instead of everything possible to promote it.

it is punk. its called Pop punk.

[Unbelievable21]

No Radiohead? We can't be friends.

I'm too good for you anyway.

Sorry, but the RRHOF doesn't give out awards for effort.

I just wanted to see if everyone would get pissed off if I posted it, because it seems to me like 9/10 of the forum has a vendetta against them.
(I say vendetta because those members seem to believe Slipknot murdered all hope for music.)

[Ultimatum]

Why do you say no to Deep Purple?

[Murricane93]

Chicago
The Doobie Brothers
Electric Light Orchestra

[kwami42]

Mang you don't know me.

[wawacom]

Why do you say no to Deep Purple?

Meh, to me they just don't have enough songs that are known.

[Ultimatum]

Woman in Tokyo.

Highway Star, which was considered to have been the first Speed Metal song by many and inspired many acts that came to be.

Smoke on the Water, the most immortal riff known to man.

No other band on that list has made these accomplishments.

[Hastyl3]

it is punk. its called Pop punk.

Pop and Punk being used to describe a genre is a paradox and therefore, divides by zero.

[Hungryfreak]

Smoke on the Water, the most immortal riff known to man.

No, In My Kingdom Cold has the most Immortal riff known to man :P

Lame jokes aside, Smoke on the Water is definitely one of, if not the best known rock anthem out there.

And yet few people know about Frank Zappa, despite the song being about a Zappa concert and specifically mentioning "Frank Zappa and the Mothers"
