    second, in my opinion, while I do love them, Soundgarden are not what one would call a groundbreaking band.

    Well I definitely don't think they're groundbreaking either. They're like a depressing version of Led Zeppelin (just as Van Halen was like a party-version of Led Zeppelin). But they're definitely a great band. If being "groundbreaking" was a prerequisite to getting in, not many people would get in....including....probably....Pearl Jam.

    I would think the hall would learn from the Steve Miller / Black Keys debacle and let the bands have a say in who inducts them.

    I think they deserve to go in first ballot. Especially if Green Day and Nirvana got it in the first try. But there are many respectable and big artists who haven't gone on first ballot. Or are not even in.

    Serious question: Do we think they care? Not about who would give the speech, but about actually being inducted.

    I don't think they are losing any sleep over whether or not they will get in, but I do think they will consider it an honour if they are inducted.
