This year's Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony was already set to go forward without nearly half of its 2014 class members - including Kiss, Linda Ronstadt and the late Kurt Cobain of Nirvana. Now, Cat Stevens maybe be bowing out as well.
With Kiss finally set to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame this year, one might think Paul Stanley's attitude toward it might have softened somewhat, but that isn't the case: In a new interview, Stanley made it clear that he still feels the whole thing is "tainted, corrupted and distorted."
When they woke up yesterday, Peter Gabriel and the members of Kiss were just plain old ordinary multimillionaire rock stars. Today? They're some of the newest members of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame announced its 2014 class of inductees late Monday night (Dec. 16), and grunge goliaths Nirvana and hard-rock heroes KISS are among the acts who have been elected into the prestigious institution.
The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame has just announced its nominees for the class of 2014. Among those being considered for a 2014 induction include Nirvana, KISS, Deep Purple + many more.
Kiss, Deep Purple, Yes, and Peter Gabriel are among the nominees for the 2014 class of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Other classic rock hopefuls include Linda Ronstadt, Cat Stevens, Hall and Oates, and the Zombies.
The guys in Deep Purple are celebrating their 45th anniversary with another album and the latest round of tour dates. But if Metallica's Lars Ulrich had anything to say about it, they'd also have a spot in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
It's not often that you have the chance to see a Rock 'N' Roll Hall of Famer on-stage, let alone an 87-year old Rock 'N' Roll Hall of Famer but, last night, Bismarck had that opportunity as blues legend B.B. King took the stage at the Bismarck Civic Center!
