Poll question: Rush: Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson and Neil Peart: R&R Hall of Fame

Does Rush belong in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame?

[Generic Brad]

1. Do we allow Canadians in there?

If that is an eligibility rule, I guess we have to let Rush in.

[av8rdave]

3. Neil Young has been inducted twice

As part of Buffalo Springfield and as Neil Young.

So Canadians do have a shot at it.

Rush certainly should!

[Sebastian Doyle]

10. But oddly enough

He was NOT inducted with Crosby Stills & Nash. Which seemed a bit weird.

[av8rdave]

13. I know...that is strange, isn't it?

I always wonder if he ever saw that as a slight.

[Bennyboy]

2. I think they suck but......

I get that are pretty unique and have done it for a long time. They keep coming out with news stuff all the time too....Not for me. But I really respect them.

[Pryderi]

4. thanks for being open-minded! Here's your heart!

[Bennyboy]

7. thanx!

WOOOHOOO!

[Swede]

5. I like the cut of your gib.

That is an excellent attitude. I'm slowly coming around to it. I rarely cut down other peoples taste in music,movies etc. When I catch myself,I bit my tongue or don't hit send.

[Pryderi]

6. um...you can't vote "no" without posting. Otherwise, you're a

cowardly asshole.

[cemaphonic]

8. Doesn't the HOF hate progsters?

Granted, in the case of Rush I agree, but I like some of the other 70s prog stuff.

I guess what I'm saying is "don't hold your breath."

[Pryderi]

11. Grateful Dead and Pink Floyd are both in the Hall of Fame.

[old mark]

9. NO, but they should get a special lifetime achievement award

for consistently sucking for all these years.

12. Yes, for one reason

They're a rock band--okay, progressive rock, but rock nonetheless.

If James Brown, The Coasters, Marvin Gaye, BB King, Smokey Robinson, Muddy Waters, Otis Redding, The Temptations, Hank Ballard, Wilson Pickett, Booker T and the MGs, Sly & the Family Stone, Bob Marley, Gladys Knight and the Pipps, Isaac Hayes, and Miles Davis (none of whom are rock bands) can get in the Hall, so should Rush.

[TZ]

14. Of course they do!

Even the haters admit that Rush is unique. There is no one else like them. I think thats why I love Geddy Lee so much..He's not like anyone else out there and he's a very very talented musician (as are all the members of Rush)...:loveya:

[conscious evolution]

15. Don.t care for their music anymore

but back in the day they were as good,if not better, than anyone else out there.
They get my vote for inclusion.

[pintobean]

16. Yes. It should be a slam dunk.

They're more qualified than many artists that are already in.
