Prince Headed for Hall? 
This news is either going to ease Prince and John Mellencamp's possible midlife crises, or agitate them: They're nominees for induction to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Nominees become eligible for induction 25 years after the release of their first records. In the case of the artist currently known as Prince, that means he's a quarter-century away from his days as the 20-year-old wonder behind his 1978 debut, For You. The prolific funky rocker or rocking funkster, now 45, has produced numerous hits, including "1999," "Little Red Corvette," and "Purple Rain" to name three titles that don't sound too suggestive for family audiences. A very lucky man, he remained a critical and popular favorite even after he changed his name to a hieroglyphic in the 1990s. The hall typically announces its voting results in December, with induction ceremonies following in March in New York City. Balloting is conducted among hall members and music-industry players. http://story.news.yahoo.c...=/eo/12495 | |

I would say yes!
But the Industry will say no! So no I do not think Prince will get in the Hall Of Fame. "So strange that no one stayed at the end of the Parade..." - Wendy & Lisa's "Song About" on their 1987 self-titled album.
