Good. And what a coincidence, Iggy is just as good-looking as her

/Madonna is inducted by not Tommy James and the Shondells

Madonna is dance music, not rock. The Rock hall needs to be reminded that rock is not a catch-all category for every damn thing under the sun but classical, country and jazz... Or are those acts in the hall, too?

I think Iggy should be the designated fill-in for ALL present and future inductees who can't be bothered to show up.

Madonna gets in, and Rush gets snubbed again.

Fark the R&RHOF.

It's in CLEVELAND.


say no more.

The Glass Dragon: Madonna gets in, and Rush gets snubbed again.

Well you can't blame them for having good taste

SLIGHTLY TWISTED DISAPPOINTED SISTERS

Unavailable for comment.

No Chicago. No Rush. No Gram Parsons. I think they should stop using the phrase "hall of fame" in their title.

ALL IGGY, ALL THE TIME

You haven't lived until you've seen him walk on a sea of hands at the Midsummer's Night Rock Festival and abuse himself with peanut butter.

Been enjoying Mike Watt's stint on bass, but I miss that old pimply alcoholic skeleton Dave Alexander.

Iggy likes kicking people in the head while performing. Or throwing security people off the stage. That would be awesome if it happens at the Rock Hall of Shame.

Best Iggy story:

The last Iggy and the Stooges show was at the Michigan Palace when all these bikers came. See, the night before we went to Detroit and played one of those little pickup gigs that you play to supplement the main gig so you can pay your hotel bill on the side. And this guy kept whipping eggs at me.

I had on this little ballerina costume and a G-string and everything and I just got sick of it. It was a biker hangout, you know? So I finally just stopped everything and I said, "Okay, I'm calling the farker down! Everybody just clear out!"

Everybody just clears out and here's this guy, about six foot three, like three hundred pounds, literally with a knuckle glove that went up to his elbow and had these little studs on it.

So he's standing there with a knuckle glove and the eggs in the other hand, like, "Ha ha ha."

I said, "Well, what the fark? I might as well get this over with." So I put down my mike and stepped out. You know, I had little ballet shoes on, and it was just like seeing a train coming - Choo... choo... choo... choo... BAM!"

He just got me. But he didn't deck me, he couldn't knock me down, it was real weird. I kept standing up and I couldn't hit him. Finally the blood got to be too much for him so he just stopped and said, "Okay, you're cool."

I didn't feel so cool.

You're slagging them for a WISE decision? Jeez.

bigmoneygrip: No Chicago.

"I command you in the name of Lucifer to spill the blood of the innocent!"
"Oh my god - Chicago kicks ass!"

Those 2 last shows are immortalized in the live disk "Metallic K.O."

the in-between song banters is priceless... Iggy taunting the bikers every ways he can think of... You can hear the bands being pelted by things... Fun for a couple of listens

Kind of reminds me of that Rolling Stones with Shakira, Pink, and Christina Aguilera on the cover with the title, "QUEENS OF ROCK."

Well, Miles Davis did go in a couple of years back.

Anyone remember that Iggy performed at the The Concert For the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1995? His back-up band was Soul Asylum and he did the Door's "Back Door Man". Wish I could find a video of that...

I have too many stories about Iggy (seen him perform about 12 times over 30 years), I've even met/partied with him after a concert in Norristown, PA in 1980.

He deserves all the praise and accolades he can get. The man has earned them.

IGGY POP!!! A-men!

/can't be obscure

They should've admitted the Beastie Boys.

Hank Williams has been in (as an "Early Influence") since almost the beginning.

true story, my dad went to middle school with Iggy Pop. Used to tell me stories about this kid Jimmy who danced way differently than other kids at the school dances

Whatever. Regardless of the fact that my friends dad wrote most of Madonnas songs, she doesn't belong in the Rock hall of fame.

Iggy sucked.

Well if Madonna got in, Duran Duran should definitely be let in. WTF?

Tumunga: Iggy sucked.

You must be a really interesting amazingly boring person with no sense of humor.
