    About the 2026 Inductees, dave wrote:
    No one here is predicting Avril Lavigne or Kelly Clarkson that ilk? I think they're way more likely to get nominated at some point than people realize, especially now that Pink just got nominated.

    Those old industry execs in suits are probably way more into them than they are into most of the 00s indie-rock crowd. Avril and Kelly were f*ing huge, they're still relevant, and they've got plenty of industry connections. You can totally picture some old-a industry guys going, "Hey, young people loved these artists, right? Nominating them makes us look like we're actually in touch with younger culture."

    Give it a few years and I wouldn't be surprised at all if both of them end up on the ballot. They're sure as hell more likely than Yeah Yeah Yeahs or most of that indie-rock ilk.

    Honestly, I think most indie acts are just gonna get completely ignored unless they're too big or too important to ignore, like The Strokes or Arctic Monkeys, or they're the kind of industry darlings having powerful people backing them, like Wilco or Arcade Fire.

    I just don't see most 00s indie bands ever getting seriously considered. Instead, we're probably gonna watch a bunch of old, boring-a** industry dudes put Avril or Kelly on the ballot and pat themselves on the back for embracing "youth culture." Like, "See? We're still f***ing cool. We know what the kids listened to!"
