ELO, Joan Baez, Journey, Yes, Steepenwolf - they are true rock legends. But Tupac Shakur and Janet Jackson?!

Written by Lanthros on 19.10.2016 at 14:33 I even understand Kraftwerk, because they were pioneers of industrial music (could there be NIN, The Sisters of Mercy or The Order without them?) but what Tupac did to rock music? Nothing that I know of

Nice to see MC5 on the list, as well as Janes and DM, not that i care who gets in. nice to see at least some acknowledgement of the jam kicker-outters.

Oh Journey. My friends do Don't Stop Believin EVERY TIME we do karaoke, but I'm sure that's something that happens at every karaoke bar everywhere, with or without my tone-deaf dear ones. On a more in-tune note, I saw Journey with Steve Miller Band last year and it was pretty kick ass.

Written by Susan on 20.10.2016 at 02:39 Journey are pretty cool. No love for Pearl Jam though? I grew up loving those guys.

Jane's and Pearl Jam are my favourites from this list, but in general not a terrible list of nominees like sometimes
