Here's something new for this year.
Basically, the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame nominees have been announced for 2022, and here's our chance to make our picks for the M4BCC ballot for this year's inductees.
Who are your 5 picks?

Kate Bush! It's annoying enough she hasn't been inducted already! My second vote went for Dolly.

Hmm, looks like Rock n’ Roll is very broad now… Eminem? Lionel Richie! Dolly! Good artists, not Rock. Never heard of Fela Kuti & MC5.
Without a doubt, Rage Against the Machine & Pat Benatar.
Then for the others, none are really big enough or rock enough for me.. so I would say:
Judas, Duran Duran, & Kate Bush edging out NY Dolls.

QUEEN PAT OF COURSE. Really rooting for her! Also Carlegend Slaymon, Duran Duran, Judas Priest (the band formerly known as Judass Priest ), and I was genuinely shocked to find out Dolly Parton wasn't in there yet so I had to vote her for that alone.

I think the nomination process should be abandoned and they should simply induct them all

This is why I love Dolly,
"Dolly Parton has removed herself from the slate of 2022 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame nominees, citing her belief that she isn't qualified to contend for such an honor."
"I really do not want votes to be split because of me, so I must respectfully bow out," Parton said in her statement.
Truly a legend and outstanding lady.
Kinda unusual that the RnR HOF is not honoring her wish and persisting to keep her on the ballot. And if they want to induct artists outside the Rock genre, they should just call it the Music Hall of Fame.

We know they prioritize men, and some females famous in pop or other styles. If this "Rock" was actually enforced, I bet people like Sonic Youth, Dave Matthews Band, Björk!!!!!, Aimee Mann, Scott Walker, Nico, Death In June or Lisa Germano would already be into consideration.

And CHRIS ISAAK!!!!!!!!!!!!! He is the quintessential artist for this HoF, and he hasn't even been considered? WTF?

Dave Matthews Band SHOULD have gotten in back in 2020. They won the fan poll on the Hall Of Fame website. I know this because second place was Pat Benatar and third was Soundgarden, and I voted for them every single day, and THEY didn’t get in either. That was the moment I stopped taking this rigged snobshow seriously.

Cause several actually inducted artists.... do not deserve it.

The nomination committee is totally out of touch with what people want with regard to the hall. I think that there are still some original members (likely one-time Rolling Stone contributors) still around who are swaying what's going on, and it makes the hall look foolish. I have seen Chris Isaak about 10 times in concert - I even interviewed him in 1987, before he was a star! - and in another world he would be inducted.

Yeah, the Hall seems to get less serious with time. And wow, TEN concerts! Must have been blissful! Chris is amazing, and I'm sad he hasn't released anything new in a long time
