Heather. Posted December 27, 2014 Posted December 27, 2014 Stevie Wonder got in at 38. And the new Red Hot Chili Peppers guitarist was 32 when they were inducted but I dunno if he counts. Thanks. Was that guitarist actually inducted with the band though? I remember watching the Peppers and don't recall any n00bs.
tdlyon Posted December 27, 2014 Posted December 27, 2014 Thanks. Was that guitarist actually inducted with the band though? I remember watching the Peppers and don't recall any n00bs. Frusciante was not there.
Heather. Posted December 27, 2014 Posted December 27, 2014 Frusciante was not there. I know, I wasn't asking about Frusciante.
Guest Posted December 27, 2014 Posted December 27, 2014 I know, I wasn't asking about Frusciante. Klinghoffer was there and he performed with them. According to Wikipedia he was inducted.
Chin for a Day Posted December 27, 2014 Posted December 27, 2014 Frusciante was not there. Frusciante was not there, but he was inducted.
Yojimbo Posted December 27, 2014 Posted December 27, 2014 Wait, so Klinghoffer was actually inducted with the Chili Peppers? Why? Just because he played on a mediocre album? If so then I don't see any reason why Jason shouldn't be inducted with Green Day.

If so then I don't see any reason why Jason shouldn't be inducted with Green Day. The rules are supposed to be that the person had to have played on what is considered a significant recording;. So, since Jason was an official member of the band for 3 mediocre records, you could make a case.

desertrose Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 Sizing up this year’s rock hall class; how you can go to Cleveland ceremony Let’s dig in to the inductees a bit, shall we? • Green Day: Plenty of folks of a certain age (say, over 40-ish) will roll their eyes derisively at Green Day getting in on the first ballot. But the Berkeley, Calif., trio was the leading light of the ’90s pop-punk explosion. The group’s breakthrough album, Dookie, contained the hits Longview, When I Come Around and Basket Case, and it influenced artists such as Sum 41, Lady Gaga and indie rock sisters Tegan and Sara, while paving the way for other pop-punk-flavored bands such as Blink-182 and No Doubt. They’ve sold a ton of records, created a hit Broadway show and toured arenas and sheds for a decade. They are the youngest still-active band on the list, and the hall seems to want to have at least one relatively young band with relatively young fans among the inductees. http://www.ohio.com/news/break-news/malcolm-x-abram-sizing-up-this-year-s-rock-hall-class-how-you-can-go-to-cleveland-ceremony-1.550307
okotavio Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 So by that same Klinghoffer's logic will Al Sobrante be officially considered inducted?
alienlifeform Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 Was Cj Ramone inducted with the others? if Kinghoffer was inducted and CJ not it's a big shame
Bastard of 1969 Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 I think that this happens every time some pretty young band is inducted into Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame - there are always some people bitching how this or that band which is older than the band that is inducted should be into Rock and Roll Hall Of fame instead of badn that has been inducted. +1 if you see what i'm saying.
Chin for a Day Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 Was Cj Ramone inducted with the others? if Kinghoffer was inducted and CJ not it's a big shame Dee Dee, Joey, Johnny, Marky and Tommy were inducted.
myinsanescenario Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 Hey I'm looking for someone to room with in Cleveland. I already have a room just looking for someone to split the cost with. If you're interested please reply!

UNICORN VOMIT Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 Do you think there will be official merchandise. I would love a shirt or something to mark the event.
Mar Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 Do you think there will be official merchandise. I would love a shirt or something to mark the event. At the very least, they'll update their T-shirts with this year's inductees, but I would love an induction ceremony-specific shirt, ia!

The tickets were sold out about 30 seconds after they went on sale. But, depending on how much you are willing to spend, you could get a ticket from a scalper. There are a bunch of people going. Look on the Idiot Meet up Thread.
