My proposal: If you can be classified as yacht rock, you are permanently banned from Hall consideration. -- nm* - ty97 Mar 14, 09:36 12
- Which one of these do you think is yacht rock? -- nm - Dark Callisto 🦊 Mar 14, 10:40
- Kim might mail you a bomb now. -- nm - David Mar 14, 09:48
- more legitimate than pop singers (Carey) or disco groups (Kool) -- nm - mud Mar 14, 09:43 9
  - Mariah and Mary J are by far the most deserving two people on that list. You don't like pop, fine, but don't be silly. -- nm - ty97 Mar 14, 09:44 8
    - I love MJB, but she's bottom tier on that particular list. -- nm - David Mar 14, 09:51 2
      - You're tall when you're wrong. -- nm - ty97 Mar 14, 09:53 1
        
        and when I'm right! -- nm - David Mar 14, 10:01
    - it's called the "Rock & Roll" Hall of fame. There's too much disco & pop in it. Don't call me silly just because I'm a little older and wiser (and was - mud Mar 14, 09:48 4
      - It's been the Music Hall of Fame for a very very very long time and everyone knows that. Don't be pedantic. -- nm - ty97 Mar 14, 09:53 2
        
        stop the name-calling. We're all expressing our opinions here -- nm - mud Mar 14, 09:56 1
        
        I'm definitely not name calling and don't mean to imply that I am. -- nm - ty97 Mar 14, 10:02
      - From the very first day it was never just rock and roll artists despite the name. It's poorly named. It should just be a music - Krusty Mar 14, 09:52
DMB, Foreigner, Frampton, Ozzy. -- nm - zunkstump Mar 14, 09:35
I would 100% vote for Cindy Blackman though -- nm - ty97 Mar 14, 09:34
BTW, for those that read the article and saw the part about Mark Ronson campaigning for Foreigner and were like "huh, weird". - ty97 Mar 14, 09:33 3
- Foreigner, my first concert, owned the late 70s/early 80s -- nm - hollywood big shot Mar 14, 09:40 1
  - There's no doubting their commercial success and I know many of their songs. - ty97 Mar 14, 09:42
- NOT to be confused with: - mud Mar 14, 09:36

I'll work backwards through my list. -- (edited) - ty97 Mar 14, 09:29

- Not Oasis. -- nm - Mop🧹 Mar 14, 09:26 8
  - Oasis/DMB are bands I fundamentally do not understand/get. But I can't deny what they accomplished. -- nm - MDH Mar 14, 09:31 7
    - I couldn't stand Oasis during their run because they're such asshats, but the sound has *really* held up over time. -- nm - David Mar 14, 09:54 1
      - This coming from you is everything to Beatles fans on this board -- nm - rollo Mar 14, 10:04
    - Oasis, who I don't care for, at least had an impact on music overall. DMB just...exists. -- nm - ty97 Mar 14, 09:32 4
      - But are globally HUGE -- nm - JaxSean Mar 14, 09:42 2

        DMB is bigger than Nickelback -- nm - JaxSean Mar 14, 10:02
      - Odd fact: Dave Matthews is like the 2-3rd largest private landholder in the state of VA. -- nm - MDH Mar 14, 09:39
