Mixed feelings this year, but at least it has not been as bad as previous years.

Soundgarden - IT’S ABOUT DAMN TIME.

Well deserving:
Chuby Checker
Joe Cocker
Outkast

Predictable, but not a fan:
Bad Company (Boring band, but Foreigner got in last year, so why not?)
The White Stripes (Another popular, shitty band.)

Cyndi Lauper - Okay, this one is just a joke. She snubbed Mariah Carey, fine. But I am still surprised that Sheryl Crow got in before Mariah.

Salt-N-Pepa and Warren Zevon are supposed to get inducted into some subordinate categories. Kudos to the latter.
