Todd Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 usually the person to induct someone into the hall of fame is someone inspired by that person/band. Usually a younger band. I could see maybe blink-182 or all time low. No, not Blink-182. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heather. Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 Alice Cooper and Johnny Depp are good friends though. What makes you think Depp or Springsteen wouldn't be willing to do it? But yeah I think Alice Cooper would be a good choice. Or Metallica! I already knew Johnny and Alice were friends Doesn't mean they see eye-to-eye on taste... Johnny Depp *played* with Mumford & Sons and we all just saw how Alice feels about them usually the person to induct someone into the hall of fame is someone inspired by that person/band. Usually a younger band. I could see maybe blink-182 or all time low. It's often someone younger but I hate the idea of any of the bands that were allegedly influenced by Green Day (of which there are many) inducting them. I guess Blink or MCR would be cool at least because they actually *know* the guys. But it doesn't necessarily have to be a inspiree who does it... like I don't think Green Day was particularly influenced by Guns N Roses but they did that. Springsteen inducted U2 and I feel like they're more contemporaries than inspirations to each other. The Rock Hall pulls a lot of random shit too with regards to this. I suppose you could say Blink is more a contemporary to Green Day than an inspiree, because even though they were newer and Dookie fans, they had their own sound. As long as I don't have to see Sum 41 or Good Charlotte up there I'm OK I do wonder if they ask the inductee band or artist "Who would you like to see induct you/would be willing to do it/would do a good job?" It's not like the Hall knows who Green Day's friends are necessarily I wonder how Iggy felt about Billie Joe up there. I'm sure they're friendly but there would be in Iggy's mind, a ton of musicians that he was closer with and more inspirational to him (not to mention better public speakers ) So I guess that's just karma... for all the shitty inductions Billie has put people through, maybe Green Day will get someone mute up there to talk about them (Naw, they did OK for GNR) Two years away. In the mean time I want to see who gets to induct Nirvana next year. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the mean time I want to see who gets to induct Nirvana next year. I think Pearl Jam would be cool for Nirvana But yeah I agree with your earlier post, if Dave Grohl would be the presenter I would be unbelievably happy! It makes more sense for them to have a contemporary introduce them, but I really don't want to see some early-2000s punk band introduce them 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrsBillieJoe95 Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 In the mean time I want to see who gets to induct Nirvana next year. holy crap! I didn't know Nirvana was getting inducted next year As long as it's not friggen Courtney Love, I'm good with whoever gets to induct them (Though I would love it if Eddie Vedder would be able to do it since they were friends as far as I know, and I'm a Pearl Jam fan as well- so two birds, one stone! ) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Grohl Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 Johnny also played with Marilyn Manson and they're best friends...I dunno...I can see him inducting Green Day, especially if his kids like them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(But probably. And I think Pearl Jam makes sense.) Johnny also played with Marilyn Manson and they're best friends...I dunno...I can see him inducting Green Day, especially if his kids like them Johnny Depp is an old soul and probably a punk snob to boot, he's a big Sex Pistols/Clash/Ramones/Iggy fan and probably thinks Green Day are too poppy. But anyway, he doesn't know them so it would be random as fuck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Grohl Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 I know people will hate it but I think it would be cool if Blink-182 inducted them. They're never shy about how much Green Day has inspired them, so I think it would be cool 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heather. Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 They'll be inducted for the 2014 but the ceremony wont be 2015 So we would find out like.... middle of 2014? Will Ferrell could do it. If Billie Joe performs at his Mark Twain thing, Will could do their induction (Chris Rock inducted the Beastie Boys for crying out loud) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Annie, get your gun Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 Looks like Alice Cooper likes Green Day and Foo Fighters a lot! I like him too, not only because he likes GD, and I admit I haven't heard much of his music but I saw him several times talking in rocks shows on vh1+ and he seems a nice guy! And also he played golf with Tré I don't really know who could induct the boys, but he could do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
