The 2023 nominees:
A Tribe Called Quest
Kate Bush
Sheryl Crow
Missy Elliott
Iron Maiden
Joy Division/New Order
Cyndi Lauper
George Michael
Willie Nelson
Rage Against the Machine
Soundgarden
The Spinners
The White Stripes
Warren Zevon
"Missy Elliott, the White Stripes, Joy Division/New Order, Sheryl Crow, Cyndi Lauper, George Michael, Willie Nelson, and Warren Zevon are all on the ballot for the very first time. To be eligible for this year's ballot, the musicians' first single or album had to be released in 1998 or earlier. Elliott and the White Stripes made the list in their first year of eligibility. "
Any opinions? Does anybody care? Anyone you'd add to the list? I'm surprised that this is the first nomination for Warren Zevon. I've seen some of the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame award shows over the years and they can be fun with some good performances.

They need to give it a rest for awhile. Too many in the hall already. They can have an annual party if they want, but space the nominations out to every four years. If someone is deserving now, they'll be deserving then.

Yeah, it seems like they are running out of real rock n roll performers. Kate Bush had a bit of a resurgence after being prominently featured in Stranger Things.

Like always, there's some that deserve it and others that don't belong on a "rock'n'roll" list. Maybe they should change the name of the place to THE GENERAL POP MUSIC HALL OF FAME.
