Slade aren't there either though their offspring KISS and Cheap Trick are.
Loose connection - Traffic are there.

In all fairness to the Pistols, when they were inducted in 2006, they refused to attend & described it, quite accurately imo, as "a piss stain".

I am not sure if anyone on here is bothered by The Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame, but as I have been doing the square root of f*ck all at work today I decided to look at the nominations for 2020. Well you have a couple of big hitters mainly American, but then up pops Judas Priest, Motorhead and Thin Lizzy. Now this got me thinking, surely our beloved Quo (1970-1984) should have got the nod by now. Anyway I fired off an email to the relevant people and recieved a very nice reply. It basically has said that I have to write a letter to the nominating committee with my reason why Quo should get a nomination. The email provided an address, obviously in the USA. So as tomorrow looks like a nice day and I am at work twiddling my thumbs, I think I will fire off a letter. Any suggestions? Did Judas Priest, Motörhead, and Thin Lizzy get over the line and into the hall of fame? The last I heard was that Phil and Mickey had been included in the nomination but then I didn’t hear any more. I just looked it up and apparently Motörhead did not get voted in, so what chance have Quo got even if they did get nominated www.rockhall.com/class-2020-inductees

Even today I promote the hell out of the band over here, but my snotty friends still listen to Journey and other pap. Idiots.

Quo and the Rock n Roll Hall of fame? Rather like the 'BBC created' British Rock Royalty (Bowie/Elton/Beatles/Kate Bush/George Michael etc etc...) Quo have the 'common touch' with their Fans, always have had, the others listed above, while having all the 'Lovies' gushing over them, could only dream of such genuine affection...Yes Quo should have been recognised years(decades) back, but don't hold your breath...us Quo fans 'know the score'
