Rock and Roll Hall of Fame = Bull-crap

Grand Funk Railroad

Why They’ll Never Be: Grand Funk proved to be one of the earliest acts to unite snooty, snobby rock critics who bemoaned the “dumbing down” of rock. Such hacks aimed to wrest the genre away from blue-collar Midwest fans in order to promote their more “highbrow” NY/LA/London favorites. Such chicanery plagued metal for decades, and it continues to keep popular—and populist—hard rock acts out of the Hall of Fame.
STONE TEMPLE PILOT's
Why They’ll Never Be: STP initially got tagged as a rip-off of the critically revered Pearl Jam. They’ve since been blamed for all the “post-grunge” acts we’re always instructed to hate, such as Bush, Staind, Creed, and every unfunny Internet hack’s go-to punchline, Nickelback. In addition, it’s not entirely unreasonable that the Hall might be skittish about having unpredictable ex-STP frontman Scott Weiland at their big, fancy shindig.
STYX
Why They’ll Never Be: “Mr. Roboto” is used as a joke to discredit this band’s stupendous, wide-ranging body of work. Even so, do you ever turn off “Mr. Roboto”? Do you ever not get excited and have fun singing along? True rock fans can happily admit that. The gargoyles in charge of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame would never risk looking “uncool.”

MEAT LOAF
Why He’ll Never Be: Again, Meat Loaf in general, and Bat in particular, are simply too popular. Meat sings of the same stuff that Bruce Springsteen does on Born to Run—cars, girls, open roads, small town desperation, and brink-of-adulthood kamikaze runs—but Bruce not only plays by the Hall’s rules, the flops who run the joint actually wish they were the Boss. Nobody there wishes he or she was Meat Loaf.

On top of that, lump in Loaf’s longstanding Ted Nugent affiliation and his occasional campaigning for Republican candidates and no “proper thinking” HOF ballot counter would ever let his name slip into the roster.
SLAYER
Why They’ll Never Be: Slayer is too raw, too intimidating, too intense, and, overall, just too “evil” for the type of sops who made sure Madonna, Public Enemy, and Patti Smith go into the Hall before Black Sabbath, Kiss, and Deep Purple (and we’re still waiting on that last one).
TED NUGENT
Why He’ll Never Be: Again: because he’s The Nuge Man, man! THE NUGE! No one human being—let alone performer—more explosively sums up everything that the dribbling ninnies who run the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame fear, despise, and work to obliterate than Theodore Anthony Nugent.

As Ted himself put it: “I am unable to back off critical issues and play brain-dead politically correct games so that fools can continue their embarrassing denial of historical and current truth and evidence. Real music lovers increase their love for my music as my absolutism and ballsiness increases!”

That is for sure.
