Chicago...as in "You're The Inspiration" and "Hard Habit to Break"? It's a travesty!

Not being a huge fan of Metallica, have they been around long enough to be considered even?

if memory serves me correctly hefield and ulrich started the mechanics back in the late 70s before renaming themselves to metallica. based on their early material and their HUGE influence on the heavier end of rock music in the 80s i think they're deserving of at least being considered into the hall of fame.

Oh I'm not denying they're Hall of Fame material. Just didn't know how long they were around. For some reason I think of them as a 90s band and the rule is 25 years isn't it?

Metallica are most worthy...
But Chicago? I love all their power ballads in the 80s...but Hall of Fame? Seems a slightly comic idea to me...

The 90s was their weakest period...but they were unbeatable between 1983-86...until Cliff Burton died.

Based on their work in the 80's they should definitely be in the Hall. When you talk about influential bands Metallica was extremely influential and were a catalyst for bringing alot of fans into the Metal genre.
Black Sabbath wouldn't be considered nearly as influential had Metallica not come along and expanded Metal and possessed the cross over appeal that they did.
