2012 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Inductees

December 22, 2011

2012 rock and roll hall of fame On September 28 I wrote about the artists who were nominated for the 2012 Rock & Roll of Fame. To refresh your memory here is the list of nominees:

Beastie Boys
The Cure
Donovan
Eric B. & Rakim
Guns N Roses
Heart
Joan Jett and The Blackhearts
Freddie King
Laura Nyro
Red Hot Chili Peppers
Rufus with Chaka Khan
The Small Faces/The Faces
The Spinners
Donna Summer
War

So now that the powers that be at the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame have made their decisions here are the 2012 inductees:

Beastie Boys – YEAH!
Donovan
Guns N Roses – YEAH!
Laura Nyro
Red Hot Chili Peppers – YEAH!
The Small Faces/The Faces
Freddie King

While I’m disappointed that Joan Jett didn’t make the cut I am so pleased that Guns N Roses, the Beastie Boys and the Red Hot Chili Peppers are in! I feel fortunate that I’ve seen Guns and the Beasties live and that I will have the opportunity to see the Chili Peppers next spring.

In the meantime, I can’t wait to see what happens at the April 14, 2012 ceremony in Cleveland. Will there be a Guns reunion? Will the Beasties write and perform a song called “(You Gotta) Fight For Your Right (To Be Inducted!)”? Will Anthony Kiedis and Flea go old school and perform wearing only tube socks? Who knows what’s in store but tither way I’ll be watching…and you should too!

Laura
