Rock n Roll Fall of Fame 2011 Inductees

The Rock n Roll Fall of Fame is scheduled for the 16th of March and will in fact be its 25th anniversary of the ceremony. Pretty special as artists have to wait 25 years before they are eligible for induction. The Inductees for this years ceremony are :

Alice Cooper                                Darlene Love
Neil Diamond                               Tom Waits  
Dr John

Alice Cooper a band that was created 40 years ago, could be named as one of the most influential bands of Rock n Roll. One of the first to take stage shows to a whole new level sometimes adding theatrical performances and great stagecraft often involving snakes, electric chairs blood and pyrotechnics. With out Alice Cooper it is hard to say whether bands such as SlipKnot, Nine Inch Nails, Kiss, Marilyn Manson would even exist. Even in the days of the mordern music artist such as Metallica and Lady Gaga have been known to say that Alice Cooper had an influence on them.
With hits such as "I'm Eighteen"and "Schools Out" and "Poison" it is truly evident that Alice Cooper had a huge part to play in shaping the sound of Heavy Metal.
