also that's not even why they induct artists outside the narrow "ROCK" genre, which is what you mean. they do it because rock is a novelty that an ever-decreasing number of people actually give a shit.
much easier to market it as a history of american music kind of thing |

also NO ONE GIVES A FUCK. NO ONE. GIVES. A. FUCK. The idea of having a hall of fame for rock and roll music is the opposite way of how rock should be honored. It's a stupid idea, a stupid corporate execution, and literally no one gives a fuck except the corporate sponsors and your dad

the fact that rock and roll mostly comes from black traditional music, was mostly first performed by black musicians, is named after a culturally appropriated black American slang term, and then became this narrowly defined thing mostly for white people is a great example of the cultural system of racism though, which you are backing up because it's what is familiar to you and doesn't shake your rock identity or whatever. |

Doesn't Ted Nugent have like one good song? Not sure that a one-hit-wonder belongs in any hall of fame. Although I view this particular hall of fame as nothing more than a museum designed to attract visitors and sell tickets, which from my understanding is exactly what it is. (Never been there.)

That doesn't mean it doesn't still have cultural importance or power or that there can't be innovation, but as a driving force in culture, rock is well over. THAT is why the HOF interprets "rock and roll" in the big sense. |

Nugent is an absolute beast, guy was a trailblazer with rock guitar. He also played in the Amboy Dukes. |

I'm sure this was over your head, but he wasn't talking about identity politics or Washington politics, he was talking about the politics of the corporate sponsors

Second, even if an art form is weigning, you don't whore that art form out. Just because Vaudeville is dead doesn't mean you would put any variety show like "Saturday Night Live" or "The Tonight Show" into a Vaudeville Hall of Fame. To do so would diminish the integrity of the award, the art, and history itself. |

It's supposed to be an institution to serve the fans? Since when? Where do you even get this? It's always been a corporate joke.

Ted Nugent is a piece of shit loudmouth chicken hawk. Talks tough, but shits his pants to avoid serving his country. Fuck him.

I just read that interview the other day because of this stupid fucking thread. he is talking specifically about how musical accomplishment is not honored (his example is Link Wray), but rather people who are recognizable or seen as iconic... because the sponsors pick the nominees.... and the sponsors are big companies... He is obviously talking about the internal politics of the HOF, not identity politics. jesus fucking christ |

hahaha touche! I've never been, but I have a buddy who likes to trek around to different MLB stadiums and he says aside from the town-square, Cleveland is an absolute shit-hole.

Think about it... Would a guy like Springsteen be so revered if he wasn't essentially a left-wing propagandist mouthpiece?... I highly doubt it. |
