MIght as well induct Mitch Miller into the RHOF. The people they've passed up is just astounding. Nothing against Neil Diamond.

I love me some Neil Diamond too. One of the best concerts I’ve ever been to.

Congrats Neil!

The Last Waltz finally got it's due. Neil Diamond was certainly out of place for the time, but his talent grows on you as you age.

As for Doctor John, Amen!

Is Van the man (morrisson) in?

Neil Diamond before he became a parody of himself, was an excellent songwriter in the 60s, he should be in.

I like music, all kinds of music, especially R&R but I would avoid the rock&roll hall of fame like the plague.

Alice Cooper Band, New Orleans musician Dr. John, Darlene Love and singer-songwriter Tom Waits.

I personally am a big fan of Tom Waits, who writes some great songs (Ol '55, Downtown Train, San Diego Serenade, Heart of Saturday Night and my favorite: Cold, Cold, Ground) But I still have a hard time thinking of him in the Pop-Rock-HOF.

I think it's interesting that both Dr. John and Neil Diamond performed at The Band's last concert (The Last Waltz) in 1977. And here it is, a mere 33 years later, and they are getting into the HOF.

Is there a list of people who should be in the HOF but are not? I believe there are a lot of big names who just haven't made it.

And once more, the Ten Fingers of Doom, TruNorth BloodBrother #1, the Motor City Madman, TED HUGENT....was skipped over.

To blazes with the RRHOF. Bastards.

I like Neil Diamond, but what of his was either rock and or roll?

Dear R n R HoF, Since you’re too stupid to acknowledge Jethro Tull when they were first eligible then please do not offer them a spot. Ever. We Tull fans prefer this.

I like Neil Diamond, but the RRHOF has about as much legitimacy as the Nobel Peace Prize....until Rush is in there.
