Will the Dave Matthews Band make the Rock N Roll Hall Of Fame in 2018?

Pretty cut and dry...

Will the boys make the RnR Hall Of Fame come 2018? If you think they will list the reasons same with if you think they wont!

I personally think they are shoe in hall of famers. The extensive touring, the albums debuting at #1 (tying them with the eagles) The resume is just too solid for them to not be first ballot. Let me hear what you think guys! My first thread so hopefully im doing allright!

    I think they should, but I don't think they will.

    Of course they will.

    Ants Marching is the third best song of all time.

    I think they will because of their history as a touring band.

    But also, there are only 3 bands who have notched five consecutive number 1 albums on the billboard 200 (disturbed, metallica, and dmb). i remember this from an article in 2015 (?), may have possibly changed since then, as metallica dropped a new album

    I say no only because it's an entertainment HOF and those committees have their reasons for holding certain acts for certain years to build a balanced and strong class each year.

    Yeah, this is pretty much why I think it isn't going to happen.

    Also, the Rock Hall hasn't been kind to jam bands, which is how I think most/many people perceive DMB.

    Who's left that should be included before DMB that hasn't been inducted?

    Radiohead and DMB together in their first year of eligibility would be beloved by many here.

    You would consider DMB a jam band? Would you consider Pearl Jam a jam band as well?

    I have a feeling they will be shelved for a few years after becoming eligible.

    I'd put Radiohead and DMB on significantly different tiers in terms of their impact on music.

    Even Dave himself wishes he was on Radiohead's level.

    I think DMB straddles the line between a pop rock band with some jazz/funk/soul influences and jam band. They lean on improvisation sometimes, but there's usually a structure to it when they do, the rest of the band vamping on a theme while one individual solos.

    I would not call Pearl Jam a jam band. I'd call them a grunge band that became an alternative rock band. They vary their sets greatly, but I don't see a strong jam element to what they do in the vast majority of their songs.

    I'm thinking they will.

    Aren't they record holders for most albums to debut at #1? Also, aren't they in like the top 25 touring acts ever?

    I think the record is consecutive No. 1 studio albums and I think Metallica passed or matched them last year with Hardwired ... To Self-Destruct.

    Lulu is very much considered a full band Metallica album by lots of people and it didn't open as a no. 1 selling album.

    I'm not certain, but I think Billboard doesn't include Lulu in that streak since it's billed to Lou Reed and Metallica.

    I think they consider that project as a separate artist distinct from Metallica by themselves. I think. I'm not an expert on how they make the rules for their chart stuff.

    Counting that way, they tied DMB for six in a row:

    BTCS, Everyday, Busted Stuff, Stand Up, BWGK, AFTW
    Black album, Load, ReLoad, St. Anger, Death Magnetic, HTSD

    Stairway to Heaven and Freebird though may be the two most common.

    All things considered, Bohemian Rhapsody is the greatest song of all time.

    But I don't think DMB will get in just yet.

    Are we sure they qualify? I thought the were up for it in 2018, but remember a post in the "looks like 2018 will start in Mexico" thread contradicting 2018 eligibility.

    I'm more worried about the melts in the mainstream if they do get in. I think DMB/HOF will be thrashed for letting them in. Maybe it's just me but DMB seems to be in the category of Nickleback and ICP when it comes to hate, so to get this honor will create a lot of negative attention.

    Every year from then on will be, "Well if DMB got in than you have to let ______ in."

    Or I could see some defenders of them coming out of the woods which would be cool. I have no idea how DMB is perceived in the musical world.

    ^ They should get Steve Winwood to tell a story about how he was high out of his mind, heard DMB on the stereo and knew he was safe.
