maybe Al Jourgensen can induct him
NWA didn't get in? Fucking horseshit
Trent has probably slagged off a good portion of the rock hall voters!
Trent's too busy to be categorized with these folks. Maybe when he retires in 20 years they'll induct him.
Is anyone really all that surprised? Sure, it totally sucks but I wouldn't say this wasn't expected.
I'm okay with it if on the basis they only did it because they don't want two 90's acts in at the same time, and focusing more on performers from previous decades and generations.
I just think it's politics.
You may not like them but Green Day have been very influential in their genre. I think anyone owns a copy of Dookie.
I personally learned to play to guitar because of Green Day. Anyways, just my two cents ..
I'm actually pretty surprised. Given his popularity at this moment, along with his continued influence... It would have been rad to see him inducted in Cleveland. But meh. I think it's really cool that he got nominated the first year that he was eligible.
Green Day were huge when I was growing up. And the only two songs I can remember of theirs off the top of my head were after they were "big", I think.
Maybe next time. It took KISS about 15 years.
I'm pretty affirmed by this decision, none of the rock acts I enjoy were inducted. Excepting Lou Reed, winners still suck
Maybe not literally everyone, especially in the NIN community as Dookie was kinda of the polar opposite of TDS.
However, it did receive a diamond certification in 1999 and ultimately sold over 20M worldwide as of 2013.
You simply cannot deny the fact that Green Day marked a generation of kids in the 90s.
