At first I though "wow, what an easy schedule, they're a shoo-in", but further analysis says no.
Givens:
- Tina Turner
- Rage Against The Machine
- Foo Fighters
So that leaves two, maybe three spots. You've got Jay-Z, Dionne Warwick, Todd Rundgren, and Carole King. I can't see the "Bring Your Daughter... To The Slaughter" band getting in over more identity politics-friendly choices, at least not in this environment.
Bummer, since I think they are probably one of the two or three biggest "snubs" at this point (why Phil Collins and Robert Fripp aren't in the HoF baffles, continually).
If by some miraculous alignment of the planets they do get in, I say it's Harris, Dickinson, Murray, Smith, McBrain, Di'Anno, Burr, Gers. Blaze and Dennis Stratton get left on the cutting room floor.
