Hall of Fame Guru
After our two week break, we now enter the 2002 vote which contain artists that debuted in 1976. As usual you may vote for 15 artists, but only 5 of those can come from the newly eligible list. This is among a string of years that are not super strong, so really study the previously eligible lists to make sure we aren’t missing someone important. (In my opinion, there are several historic acts that we are denying here). If there is someone that you want to vote for that you can’t find on the list, that’s OK. You can vote for them as long as they debuted in 1975 or prior and aren’t already inducted into our Hall. Voting will go through early afternoon on Sunday July 15.
