Are the Doors in?  That bottom-lines the HoF for me.

Putting the Sex Pistols in the Rock'n'Roll Hall of Fame renders the concept 
absurdist (if it wasn't already).  Their induction only works as a big 
meta-textual joke.  I mean, what are they going to do-- put their plaque 
between Pink Floyd and the Eagles?  The only way they belong is because of 
the anti-big-rock statement they made; them joining the HoF by definition 
invalidates their qualification.
