Vote for Rush for hall of fame

I'm not going to argue who should be in or not but a nominee Like Freddie King will be put in the RNR hall of fame by the people who run it not the general public. Yeah the same people who argue that the RNR hall of fame board is a shill are the ones who will vote to count on them to induct Freddie King.
I'm stoked that the public is being allowed to vote for bands,and I don't even know what % a band has to have to get in but it is nice to correct some bands that have been long over looked. Freddie King will get a lot of votes from established musicians and his few fans but when he does get in it will be because he was appointed by the RNR board and the musicians in the hall who voted for him not the general public.Let's get real if you asked someone on the street who Freddie King was they would probably say no or isn't he a blues Guitarist who wrote The Thrill is Gone?

Sarcher30, by your narrow minded criteria Rush doesn't qualify for the R&R HOF either. Is there a Prog-Rock HOF?

Onhwy61, The operative word is rock. Sure there are many types of rock. I will concede that pinning down a genre can be difficult.

Anyone who would vote for Rush can't not think "Trailer Park Boys"is the best thing since sliced bread! Hold the ketchup.

Rush is bad music played well. Nothing personal against them. They are certainly good musicians and Neil Peart seems to be a nice guy. But I cannot imagine how they think up that trash they write. I guess if you like Andrew Lloyd Webber, you'll like Rush. In fact, it's hard to believe they actually like their own music. I think they must sit around and figure out non-memorable melodies with gratuitous meter changes just to appear "progressive". If that were the case, I would respect them much more. Just some guys doing what they have to do to make it in music. No disrespect to anyone here who thinks they're great. It's just that when you grew up with Hendrix, Clapton, Sly, Joplin, The Who, Jefferson Airplane and others of that era, it's a bit hard to see Rush on the same stage. But so be it.
