Voting is open through April 28th at Vote.RockHall.com or in person at the Museum in Cleveland.

TeeRoy's 2 Cents:

  • So, do you agree with Billboard's odds?
  • Cyndi Lauper and Warren Zevon have long been overlooked and should have stronger odds.
  • As far as the Fan Vote, Cyndi has mass appeal so it's not surprising that she is topping the list.
  • Once again, hip-hop and R&B acts are not getting a lot of votes.

With the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame announcing the nominees for induction this year, Billboard has listed the odds of who is "least likely to most likely to get inducted."

  • The Spinners - fourth nomination - Odds: 12 to 1
  • Iron Maiden - second nomination - Odds: 10 to 1
  • Joy Division / New Order - first nomination - Odds: 10 to 1
  • Cyndi Lauper - first nomination - Odds: 8 to 1
  • Warren Zevon - first nomination - Odds: 5 to 1
  • A Tribe Called Quest - second nomination - Odds: 5 to 1
  • Rage Against the Machine - fifth nomination - Odds: 4 to 1
  • Missy Elliott - first nomination - Odds: 3 to 1
  • Soundgarden - second nomination - Odds: 3 to 1
  • George Michael - first nomination - Odds: 2 to 1
  • Kate Bush - fourth nomination - Odds: 3 to 2
  • Willie Nelson - first nomination - Odds: 3 to 2
  • Sheryl Crow - first nomination - Odds: even money
  • The White Stripes - first nomination - Odds: even money

As far as the Fan Vote is concerned, just under 300,000 were placed on the first day of voting and the standings are:

  1. Cyndi Lauper - 31,000
  2. Willie Nelson - 28,000
  3. George Michael - 27,500
  4. Soundgarden - 27,000
  5. Iron Maiden - 25,500
  6. Rage Against the Machine - 21,000
  7. Warren Zevon - 20,500
  8. Sheryl Crow - 20,000
  9. The Spinners - 18,000
  10. Joy Division / New Order - 16,500
  11. Kate Bush - 15,000
  12. The White Stripes - 14,000
  13. Missy Elliott - 12,000
  14. A Tribe Called Quest - 10,000

Voting is open through April 28th at Vote.RockHall.com or in person at the Museum in Cleveland. The Top 5 artists selected by the public will make up a “fans’ ballot” that will be tallied along with the other ballots to determine the 2023 Inductees. Voting is capped at one ballot per day.

Inductees will be announced in May along with the date and location of the induction ceremony in the fall.
