A great band with a raw bluesy feeling to there music. They should be inducted to the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame

Love Great white. I think they deserve to be inducted into the hall, and as for your argument about the fire.... Keith Moon DELIBERATELY blew up his kit on live tv and rendered Pete Townsend Partially DEAF!!! And yet no argument there? Hmmm.

Great Whit the band that marked Metal rick a new way of rockin,always different in every new album with a killer riffs and great ballads and that graet voice and gitarist and fine musicians on bass and drums,nondiubt inducted for me and lots of people that recognize the good music they had created for the people of the world period.

The blues rock genius on House of Broken Love is so deserving to be recognized and rewarded.The lead singer is awesome on this song, as well as Jack Russell on guitar!

Great White had that show that burnt down and killed 100 people. I doubt the band members had anything to do with that. I am sure the roadies, producers, and managers do all that stuff. So that incident should NOT be taken into consideration. As for music Great White has about 10 excellent first-class songs worthy of the rock-n-roll hall of fame. Is that enough???? I am not sure but i sure as hell like them songs! >.>>>>>Rock me ROCK ME! Rock the night.<<<<<

Great White aren't really known much for their music. I can't name any Great White songs except for "Rock Me" and "Once Bitten Twice Shy." They are more famous for the show in Rhode Island where 100 people died at. I remember that from a VH-1 show that was 100 Most Shocking Moments in Rock And Roll/Music and it was in the last 10 moments.

Ok so let me get this straight..?¿ They've been eligible since 2008 and haven't even been considered ONCE . ?????? WOW OK SSssooo let's just remember that Once Bitten came out in '87 and has 9 songs I believe?…. IMO ALL 9 ARE SOLID AS SOLID CAN GET. Maybe " Fast Road" could've been left out. Then as far as I'm concerned, if there's a couple above average songs released after that album, ( which there was ) it's just a bonus. With all that being said, Great White should've got the nod within the last 14yrs! Some bands already in make me shake my head and wonder who's making these decisions. If & when they get the call they should say - thanks, but what took you so long.

Great White should be in the Hall of Fame, but I'm not sure Jack Russell and Mark Kendall would play together. Would they be able to put their differences aside for the HOF?

You mean the group who's most renowned for having a concert in a venue that caught fire, killing over 100 people?

One of my favorite bands of all time. They had lots of hits and a sound unlike anyone else. They obviously have a ton of fans because they tour with various singers year after year and still pack the house! Lets not forget how hot they were in their heyday and how many songs they leave us to unbury now and then and remember Great White in their prime!
Hell yes, they deserve to be in the HOF!!
