Whitney Housten has been inducted, FFS. I believe Madona was also inducted in the past.
Thin Lizzy, Judas Priest and Motorhead, three hugely influential bands, were nominated but did not make it.

Re: Rock and Roll Hall of Fame - What a joke
Don't forget those well-known rock 'n' rollers Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five, N.W.A., Public Enemy, Beastie Boys, Run DMC, Tupac Shakur, and (also this year) the Notorious B.I.G. They've all been inducted too.
The phrase "Rock & Roll" has been a bit fluid since year two of the H.O.F. when Keith Richards inducted Aretha Franklin. Personally I'd have seen The Sweet inducted before Whitney.
There's a complete list here to get really annoyed about.

Suzi Quatro was also annoyed that they keep refusing to acknowledge her importance in the 70s.

(Public Enemy, Grandmaster Flash, Beastie Boys and Run DMC are all brilliant, though)
