Agreed about Joan Jett.

She was a pioneer in the 1970s and influential with The Runaways.

She then gave the music industry the ‘middle finger’ when she created her own record label in 1980 after she was rejected multiple times by the big Hollywood labels — and the rest is history!

This Hall of Shame is a joke until they put Grand Funk Railroad in. One of the biggest selling bands of all time and they are still snubbed.

I would say the Runaways should be in, but not Joan Jett and the Blackhearts, they basically had about two hit singles.
