2015 Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame Nominations

When is Pearl Jam eligible? IMO Pearl Jam should get in way before NIN and especially before Green Day. And explain to me how NWA is rock and roll.

Ten was released August 1991, so eligible in 2016.
There are plenty of other hip-hop / rap groups in the HOF, e.g. Public Enemy, Beastie Boys, Run-D.M.C., Grandmaster Flash, as well as pop-stars, e.g. Michael Jackson, Madonna. It's not about genre, it's about music...
I have more of a problem with NIN and Green Day than NWA or Chic.
And I can't stand Green Day

Seeing Tom Petty on the list of eligibles...must be his solo work.
The Smiths and Sting sure as hell ain't showing up.
And how is Ani Difranco left off the nominees list. She is the only other artist on that list that I could consider, well maybe Petty's solo career too.
A lot of hair bands on that list, very bad ones at that...

The Paul Butterfield blues band gets my vote. Although not a household name, they were a black and white blues outfit out of Chicago in the 60's. Mike Bloomfield, was their hotshot guitarist along with Elvin Bishop. They brought blues into the U.S. consciousness in the 60's. They also backed Dylan when he went electric at the Newport folk festival in 1965.
if you like electric blues and harmonica playing, check out their self titled debut (1965) and East West (1966). Highly recommended!

I like certain bands and artists on the lists but realize that they don't approach RARHOF status But Jeff Healy (The Jeff Healy Band is the accurate listing, as people wrote in the comments section), will always be a band that stands above others that I like for many reasons. Sadly, if they were inducted, they would be missing their talented front man on acceptance, but I would absolutely vote for their induction..
Mother Love Bone is eligible so I assume that Temple of the Dog and Pearl Jam will both be eligible in the same year? Interesting.

Mother Love Bone has no business being in there, not by a long shot.
Bon Jovi should be in there. Not my cup of tea, but they should.
There are a pocket full of homegrown punk/hardcore bands that should be in there too like The Bad Brains, The Misfits, Minor Threat and The Dead Kennedys. These 4 bands started movements, music and spawned hundreds of other bands. If the Sex Pistols got in then these guys should have some consideration.
Motorhead too?
I do disagree in a way with MLB. I do believe (my own opinion) that they had a larger impact on how music evolved than with Green Day. Green Day just isn't my cup of tea. MLB was a brief, but powerful stepping stone in music.
Could you imagine Lemmy at the induction ceremony?

I don't particularly care for Green Day, so I'm kind of bummed about that one.
