Finally SRV! And Ringo is my favorite Beatle, so I'm glad to see him get his due.

Anyway, it's surprising Green Day was eligible before Pearl Jam. But that's because the formers first recording isn't old enough.

I guess this makes The Beatles the first band where every member has been inducted as a solo artist (in addition to being inducted with the band)?

The Beatles are actually the second. Crosby (The Byrds), Stills (Buffalo Springfield) & Nash (The Hollies) were the first.

And Young!

I Know Pearl Jam isn't eligible yet but I meant the fact Green Day made it ahead of them in their first year is a joke in my book.

They did have the best selling punk album ever.

However, there's also a fan poll (not sure where to vote) and the inductees are always in the top 10. Number two on the most recent one, Nine Inch Nails, did not get in though.
