What Members of Pearl Jam Will Be Inducted Into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame?
So... the band has went through a few drummers. Who is going to get inducted? Obviously, we have the 4 that have been there the whole time (Ed, Jeff, Stone & Mike)... but who else?
When KISS got inducted, Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons were upset that only the original four were inducted, even though they had several other members throughout the years, some that played with them a long, long time. I seem to remember them pointing out the Chili Peppers as an example of a band that had several members inducted, even some that had very little time with the Chili Peppers.
Are there any rules to this? I don't think so. I think it's totally the RRHOF's decision. Obviously, bands don't get to decide (as I mentioned in the KISS example).
If I were to guess, Pearl Jam members getting inducted will include:
Eddie
Jeff
Stone
Mike
Matt (member since 1998, has played on half of their albums)
Dave Krusen (played on their biggest-selling, most popular album)
Dave Abbruzzese (played on two #1, multi-platinum albums)
Jack Irons (played on two platinum albums)
I truly hope these 8 make it. I think it would be incredibly shitty if, for example, Dave A. is left out and Jack Irons is included.
I would say no to Boom and Matt Chamberlain (never played on an album).

I think Dave K. is considered the original drummer for the band... not a "session drummer". If I'm not mistaken, he was the drummer for the band's early shows (including their first ever - 10/22/90... a date often considered the anniversary date of the band). According to Wikipedia: "Krusen was a member of the band from its first official show on October 22, 1990, to the completion of the band's debut album, Ten in 1991." Sorry, a band member during one of the biggest albums ever gets in over a touring keyboardist.Foriginal Sin said:I would say Boom over Dave K.

Wikipedia also mentions Krusen left the band in May 1991, so after recording but before the release of Ten. I think the whole drummer thing is very tricky when it comes to induction. I'm guessing the band is very loyal to Matt and Jack mostly. They've known Matt forever, even played on the original demos, right? Matt is their current drummer and has been in the band 18+ years (but during the latter half, less commercially successful period). Jack lined up Stone and Jeff with Eddie, so he's an important figure in PJ's inception as well... BUT, I don't believe he stands out more than Abbruzzese as far as inception honors go.

I think Matt is a no brainer, its the other 3 that gets tricky. They all have their selling points. I think it would be great for them all to get in and play at the induction, I seriously doubt that happens though.0

Would be nice to see all 4. They've all definitely earned it.
Jack's my favorite. I could easily see him being left out over the other three, and I think that would be total robbery.
I think the band breaking out Angel this year and mentioning Dave A from the stage shows they're ok with him being there for that nite...0 -
Matt Cameron's been with them for 18 years now, which is almost 75% of the band's career. It will be him & the 4 main guys, sorry Boom.
The other drummers will get a shout out from someone in the band during the acceptance speech, but that will be the extent of it IMO.

Dave A and Matt C for sure. Jack Irons if he didn't get in with the Chili Peppers. The rest I don't think will be in. I'd like to see Boom in but he's never been listed as an official member of the band so don't think it will happen.Post edited by EnterThanman onThe member formerly known as Scratched Vinyl0

Dave K was the original drummer (unless you count the demos which Matt Cameron played on) and if not for personal issues would probably still be the drummer.Foriginal Sin said:I would say Boom over Dave K. Did he even tour, technically he was a session drummer on an amazing album

That's the thing - for the RnRHOF, the current drummer is NOT a no-brainer. It usually IS the "original line up" of the band. So hard to say how the HOF will handle it, but something tells me that because it's PJ, they'll maybe be a little flexible and let them have all the drummers come up? That's my guess. But "original line-up" is usually the thing. Did Nirvana's first drummer go up when they got inducted, or just Krist and Dave?twhite1221 said:I think Matt is a no brainer, its the other 3 that gets tricky. They all have their selling points.

Pretty sure Dave K. was just a session drummer who happened to play a few live shows with them. In other words, he wasn't a member of the band. I could be wrongigotid88 said:

From what I remember it was only Cobain, Grohl, and Krist...Channing was not included. I think with Matt's lengthy history with the band the only way he gets left out is if Soundgarden gets inducted next year as well.JH6056 said:

Not saying it should....just that the Hall makes crazy decisions in regards to these things and who knows what they could possibly do.KV4053 said:

I'm pretty sure Boom has played on a few albums...certainly on at least Riot Act. It would be a shame if he wasn't inducted, he has been such a big part of their live shows since 2002.

I would expect the main 4. all drummers. and Boom, he has been a major weapon (especially in concert) for more than half the bands career.0

if you're a fan of the band from the beginning you should know this. Also with all the love Dave A gets it's understandable why some might think he was the first drummer or first real drummer.KV4053 said:
