For the first time ever, I went ahead and voted for the Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame.

There are sixteen nominees for the 2020 class, with nine first timers (I've noted those with an asterisk).
They are ...
Pat Benatar*
Dave Matthews Band*
Depeche Mode
The Doobie Brothers*
Whitney Houston*
Judas Priest
Karftwerk
MC5
Motorhead*
Nine Inch Nails
The Notorious B.I.G.*
Rufus feat. Chaka Khan
Todd Rundgren
Soundgarden*
T. Rex*
Thin Lizzy*

Today I only voted for three of the nominees: Pat Benatar; The Doobie Brothers; Thin Lizzy
I note that all three are first timers.

Oh yeah, even though you can vote once per day (with up to five nominees per ballot), until voting ends on January 10th, I doubt that I shall vote again.

Who would you vote for and will you actually cast a vote?

Nothing in particular against the rest of the nominees but Judas Priest would be my #1 choice

I agree on Notorious B.I.G.
He might be the greatest rapper ever

Your picks were very solid though

I can't vote for first-timers yet when there's enough of the others to fill out a deserving 5.

Depeche Mode
Judas Priest
Kraftwerk
Nine Inch Nails
Todd Rundgren

I'd go for T.Rex and Motorhead. I'm not a big fan of Judas Priest and Nine Inch Nails, but I feel they should be there just for their place in music history. I'd vote if I don't have to enter a bunch of information like my email.

KNOWN FOR WRITING FOR ALL THE OTHE DUDES IN THERE ALREADY.AND BEING INSTRUMENTAL IN MULTIPLE ERAS OF MUSIC.FOR WRITING,PERFORMING,PRODUCING,ETC....RUNDGREN IS BY FAR THE MOST GLARING OMISSION OFF THAT LIST.
