Seriously, what is mentally wrong with the people running the Rock&Roll Hall Of Fame in Cleveland?

Seriously, what is mentally wrong with the people running the Rock&Roll Hall Of Fame in Cleveland?

The number of incredible classic rock acts I'm finding that AREN'T in the HOF is becoming staggering. And all the while performers like Madonna and ABBA are getting in. Really, Madonna? I thought this was the ROCK hall of fame. The pop & dance hall of Lame is that way -------->


Here's just a sampling of classic rock acts that are NOT in the so-called Rock hall of fame:

Kiss -- NOT in the HOF.
Deep Purple -- Not in, come ON people.
Rush -- Not in
Doobie Brothers -- Not in
The Guess Who -- Not in!
Chicago -- Not in
Emerson, Lake and Palmer
The Moody Blues
King Crimson
Styx
Peter Frampton
Heart
Foreigner
Journey
Bad Company
Three Dog Night
Alice Cooper
Moody Blues
E.L.O.
Def Lepard
Cheap Trick
Stevie Ray Vaughn
Joe Cocker
Supertramp
Judas Priest
George Thorogood & the Destroyers


All of the above hold a piece of rock history, all of them were through-the-roof HUGE back in the day and their stuff still sells and gets a lot of airplay today on classic rock stations all over the world. Every one of these bands as well as dozens of others all have incredible biographies and discographies, every one. All are more than accomplished enough to warrant hall of fame induction.

Instead we put the likes of Madonna, ABBA,
The Staple Singers?? Who the hell are they?
Bonnie Raitt? Since when is Bonnie Raitt ROCK?
Grandmaster Flash and Furious Five? Give me a fucking break. I googled them, they were together for all of 5 years back in the 80's and are a RAP group, doesn't rap-crap have it's own hall of fame?

So I'll ask again, WTF is braindeadWRONG with the people in Cleveland running the Rock hall of fame?
