Earthshine_sf Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 http://www.classichitsandoldies.com/v2/2012/12/10/rock-and-roll-hall-of-fames-class-of-2013-to-be-announced-on-tuesday/ Flea from the Red Hot Chili Peppers will announce the inductees at 11am PT at the Nokia Theater in L.A. Curiously, "Some of the honorees are expected to attend the announcement event" according to this story. If so, wouldn't that mean that some or all inductees have already be informed? Could Rush already know that they are inducted, and could they even be enroute to L.A. as we speak to be at the announcement? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metaldad Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 It is my understanding that they already know. Sometimes we get Pre-recorded vids with the bands saying how ""Thankful" they are. Tomorrow is pretty much a Big Press Release, that's all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CygnusGal Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 I can't help but feel there's a bridge for sale in Brooklyn or some great real estate in Florida. I hope I'm eating crow on a flying pig tomorrow, but I don't think it's going to happen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunder Bay Rush Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 I'll be shocked if they do get it... for some reason, I can't stop thinking that the stupid pricks who run the place will never give Rush the cred. They cannot seem to want to give these guys the credit they deserve. They'll just keep on being an "old dickhead." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1-0-0-1-0-0-1 Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 What will we all bitch about this time next year if they get inducted? That they still didn't play "Jacob's Ladder" on the 2013 leg. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ucsteve667 Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 I would think they dont have the balls to deny them this time...but they are just dooshey enough they might. Ill be happy if they do get in, but I will enjoy ridiuling the RRHOF for another year if they dont. win-win Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snaked Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 I'd be far more excited if they would announce the North American tour dates for 2013. RRHoF is about a decade late with this nod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that hurdle has been overcome, and it's up to the 600+ people who vote to get them in. That's a major game changer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HomesickAlien Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 Those who claim they couldn't care less about Rush being in the RRHOF will be the first to scream bloody murder if they're not among the inductees. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rush being excluded from the RRHOF has become part of the band's identity, and at this point I'd rather them not be in there. Rush is an institution unto itself and does not need the RRHOF. I'd rather the two continue having nothing to do with each other. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeddyRulz Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 (edited) I would think they dont have the balls to deny them this time...but they are just dooshey enough they might. Ill be happy if they do get in, but I will enjoy ridiuling the RRHOF for another year if they dont. win-win As has been stated previously, the douchebaggery was in the nominating committee not nominating them. Now that hurdle has been overcome, and it's up to the 600+ people who vote to get them in. That's a major game changer. Absolutely! I don't think enough fans "get" this. The hold-up for Rush has always been getting past the small band of elitist douchebags on the nominating committee - Jann Wenner and his ilk. Now that that's past, it should be a much easier task to have the larger (and less douchey) body of people who vote for INDUCTION to wave them in. It's going to happen. I'm ready; waiting anxiously for the announcement later today. I may even be going to L.A. for the induction ceremony in April. (My wife's idea, believe it or not. She came up with it after seeing the BTLS documentary: "if they get inducted, we should go!".) Edited December 11, 2012 by GeddyRulz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goose Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 This morning on NPR there was a discussion of the Hall and the nomination/induction process. The commentators were indicting the Hall based on the secrecy of the process, and the fact that so many influential bands have been snubbed over the years. The influential bands mentioned in the piece? Roxy Music, Donna Summer and...KISS. Not a word about RUSH in the entire report. I wonder if that's and omen...
