I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for Anthrax to be inducted. Not that they don't deserve it, but I just don't see it happening (although maybe their duet with Public Enemy may swing the vote).

Surely Motörhead, Black Sabbath, Iron Maiden, Judas Priest and Slayer are more likely candidates than Guns 'n Roses or Anthrax?

Yeah, but the problem is that the voting block is swayed much more by perceptions than realities (thus Black Sabbath still not being voted in even though they've been 1) ridiculously influential and 2) eligible to be elected for 10 years now). Whereas Guns'n'Roses will get in solely on the strength of one album -- and a firecracker of a brilliant album it is -- that sold massive amounts in combination with overwhelming media focus, even though in the long run it seems that their own reach on The Future Generations has been more limited and diluted.

I though Ozzy said he doesn't want to be in there?
