Just wanted to hear some thoughts on who you think will induct Pearl Jam into the Rock Hall Of Fame in 2016. I have my money on Neil Young inducting them.

    Neil Young is a good choice, but my money is on Chris Cornell. I would actually be a little surprised if it wasn't Cornell. Plus, with that comes a complimentary TOTD performance!

    Cameron Crowe will probably insist that he induct "us".
    Your boos mean nothing to me, for I have seen what makes you cheer

    I vote Dave A, Jack, Matt Chamberlain and Dave K do it.

    You could have Pete Townsend, Neil Young, Chris Cornell, and probably a number of people do it.

    I think it would be cool if Neil Young did it, after all they did record an album with him, and he seems to have been hugely influential.

    Actually... aren't you supposed to be inducted by someone who you have influenced? Maybe Chris would be an ok choice on those merits. The last thing we need is a lead singer from one of the PJ clones to induct. Scott Stapp!

    I have some delicious Pear Jam in my refrigerator. Some nice Amish folks made it.

    OP, you might want to add an "L" to that post title. :)

    I believe Chris Cornell should induct Pearl Jam into the Rock N' Roll Hall of Fame.

    Is Chris Cornell really of the "historic stature" that most inductors usually are? As famous as Cornell and Soundgarden are, they are like peers of PJ at the time they were huge, and frankly PJ was bigger. It's not a contest, I'm not saying one is better than the other, but when you look at who inducts, it's either bands really popular now who were inspired by the inductee, or historic figures that everyone knows their place in history, they induct.

    So for PJ it seems to me it would either be some hot current band that is inspired by them (the way Ed inducted the Ramones and Green Day played the songs), or it's a Neil Young or Pete Townsend who are legends already inducting them.

    Who was the last band inducted that still records and tours and never took a major break? U2? Elvis Costello?

    PJ will be the first major band inducted that is still touring, rocking, together and ... relevant.

    U2 was already putting out crap albums and had become a show. No one else even comes close.

    HoF is a silly thing in itself and technically means little for PJ. But in some ways, it's a huge deal. They're gonna be the only relevant band that's been inducted and they're gonna tear up the stage when they play.
