Dr. John? Dr. John???????????????????????????? What?????
I live about thirty miles from this "hall of fame" and I have NO desires to step inside. Never did... never will....
I find it amazing that GL has never been nominated... Did you ever see the list who are in this place? Many of them one hit wonders...if that....
GL has done more for music than half of these so called "artists"....
Sorry if I offended any "Dr. John" fans out there... but I really believe this guy.... and many others... should not be in this place.

Wes,
IF...and that's a pretty big if...you are wrong then you are in good company here. I, and I know many others, agree with you not only on the "why isn't Gord on this list" but also the head-shaking at the ones that are.
Someone here (and I apologize that I can't remember who) once posted the process. If memory serves (and I think I've already proven that it might not, lol) it comes down to a popularity contest. Names are given (and I guess Gord has made the list) and then voted on. Like the Oscars, Emmys, Tonys etc. But I could be wrong.
