    If and when PJ is inducted, do they bring back the former drummers for the presentation?

    what about citizen dick? they didn't make a movie starring the lead singer pearl jam or nirvana. i think that might be enough to get them in.

    Nirvana sucks but they will go in 2 years ahead of PJ. Probably Chris Cornell or Neil Young will induct.

    I used to care about the R&R HOF, but that was pre-Madonna.

    I think you're a prima donna ...

    you see what I did there? Pretty funny, no?

    Usually they try to get artists that were influenced by the artist to induct them. So having Michael Stipe induct Nirvana and young or townsend induct PJ would be cool, it may not happen.

    So who are the popular artists of today that were influenced by Pearl Jam and Nirvana?

    This won't happen till 2016 for PJ, so we may not even know the artist that is going to induct them.

    Pearl Jam will not make it 1st ballot

    Nirvana will

    I hate saying it, but the Seattle explosion is inevitably linked to smells like teen spirit leading the way

    there was a thread a long time ago about this when Ed inducted whoever it was

    Ben Harper seemed to be the favorite

    RARHOF is a joke this says it all. I have zero respect for that place standing for something worth while anymore

    when he inducted REM, yeah.

    It'll definitely be someone the band influenced, not someone who influenced the band.

    generally that is how it goes. however, i imagine PJ would prefer to be inducted by Neil.

    I wonder if the band being inducted has any say in the matter?

    edit: actually, Billy Joel just inducred John Mellencamp...so maybe it doesn't have to be a younger act.

    I agree that this is the way it should go. No offense to Neil or Pete, but I don't really care what they have to say about PJ. I want to hear someone that was inspired by them. When PJ gets inducted it should be all about them, not their idols. Someone like Julian Casablancas from the Strokes would be very cool.

    well I figure by then my album should have taken off so I could induct PJ and my friend Andres who would probably play guitar would induct Nirvana. also how am I the first person to say they'll be a rock star and will induct them I mean this is post what #25?

    I think you are right on the inductee being someone who WAS influenced by the band. That does make much more sense than the other way around. So in that case...I don't have a clue who will induct PJ. Yet.

    Stapp can inducte Boy George and that's about it..

    I could see Julian Casablancas (the lead strokes singer, im pretty sure thats his name) inducted Pearl Jam. They are huge fans of the band.

    Seether will induct both if we are going by influences lol. There is also the possibility of Fred Durst for Nirvana, or Aaron Lewis for Pearl Jam. I am pretty sure Durst has a tattoo of Kurt on his chest.
    32 shows and counting...
