| How to fix the issues with Rock Hall's 2026 ceremony. 1. You tell U2 you get one song to start the show, and that song is Torn (from U2's latest album, with a guest female singer replacing Dolly) as this year's remembrance piece for Dolly. You do not get more because then this is promotional content which with the other context involved is one of the most embarrassing rock hall moments ever 2. You cut out one Rick Rubin song, I would kept RHCP because no one is discussing Steven Tyler being allowed to perform when he has the assault cases against him going to court soon. This very easily can soon turn into a "WTF how were they allowed" moment soon 3. You give Wu-Tang the time to all do their speeches and don't cut the mic before some even get a chance to the podium. Cutting it was so insanely disrespectful when they are the ones being inducted. What do you have to do, go home early? 4. All artists who did not show up or are not performing but inducted via performers gets 2 songs, all who did show up to perform get at least 3 (Billy Idol getting same amount as U2 when they are performing is also as insane as Sade, Maidan, Oasis getting 1). Cutting the two songs from earlier only adds a few extra songs total to the night. This plus Wu-Tang intro not being cut only will add 15-30 minutes to the overall induction | |

| I'm disappointed in how they just swept past Fela Kuti. I'm not a fan, but I think he's a very interesting choice for induction and a great international rep. The rest of the ceremony was fine, certainly better than I thought it would be. I think with all the no-shows and non-performances, they'll try to get more artists who will definitely perform next year. | |

| I'll leave this as my final for the 2026 group. but if what I read above is true, maybe it wasn't that bad in hindsight. But out of that list of inductors, the following has probably shot up into next years ballot predictions. No Doubt (would replace Pink, then once they are in, return to Pink or Anlasis) Huey Lewis & The News (replaces JD/NO or Billy Idol, and it could happen again next year with INXS returning like with Phil and Billy) Usher (replacing Luther, although I think its still too soon for him to be inducted, maybe preparing a capamaign for early 30's now?) | |

| Some odd decisions in this ceremony. Basically sandwiched the actual honorees between a pair of performances by artists that already had their time in the limelight, that were there to honor themselves for notable anniversaries. Add in Red Hot Chili Peppers, who also had their HOF moment already, doing a song for non-performer Rick Rubin. This took away four song spots that could have gone to the actual performer honorees for the evening. | |

| It is time to predict 2027 nominees No Doubt definitely will be brought up and likely on ballot. As Gwen Stefani already appears for ceremony, don't see rock hall committee has problem with her. No Doubt will be nominated in position of P!nk. I don't think Deftones and Blink 182 will be nominated before Linkin Park though | |

| Welp, that was underwhelming, 2 songs, woo hoo. And Hooky had to play before the tribute band for Iron Maiden. Yikes. And here I had hope that Love Will Tear Us Apart would be one of the ending jam songs. I thought Trent would do Dead Souls with them. Just a bad taste in my mouth, they had time for U2 to play 2 songs for no reason and have Red Hot Chili Peppers perform to celebrate Rick Rubin? What a waste of time. How did the Cure end up performing 5 whole songs in 2019 then? | |
