    The UK music hall of fame is terrible. The Rock and Roll hall of fame is much better. To get into that, a band or artist has to have been recording for at least 25 years.
    Robbie Williams is in the UK music hall of fame. Led Zeppelin are not.
    I do agree with the Who in it, though. They definatly deserve it.

    I fell asleep half way through the progame last night, so went out and bought the DVD today. HMV have it for 14;99e at the moment. The Who's Next isn't my favorite Who album but i'll still look forward to watching it.

    I'm slightly confused! Which one do you have to be recording for 25 years to get into?

    I'm no fan of robbie williams but i'm fairly sure he hasn't been recording for 25 years. Also Led Zeppelin didn't record for 25 years either.

    Also, why should the length of time you've been recording for matter. Does that mean if you were around for 20 years and made the (universaly accepted) greatest music ever you wouldn't get in?
    By the way I agree that The Rock and Roll hall of fame is much better.

    You don't have to be recording for twenty five years - a recxoding has to be twenty five years old. Zeppelin can be inducted because their first album was released in 1969 - it doesn't matter if they were around for twenty five minutes after that, let alone years. However R.E.M. are ineligible because their first album was recorded 22 years ago - in 2008 they can be. Nirvana'll have to wait until 2016.
    Sure how many bands have been around and together for 25 years? I can only think of the Rolling Stones
