29. That point was made at the induction ceremony this year.

Right after Kiss was inducted, the person who introduced Hall & Oates (I think) got up and listed a whole shitload of bands that deserve to be in, but aren't. The list was amazing, and made me wonder just what the criteria are. Yes, it was a backhand to Kiss, but they shouldn't be in there anyway.

That said, look how long it took The E Street Band to get in -- and how sad for those members (Danny Federici and Clarence Clemons) who didn't live to see it.
