rock hof inductions...say what?

Springsteen will induct U2 into the Hall of Fame during the 20th annual ceremony, according to The Associated Press. Also slated to pay tribute to this year's crop of Hall of Famers are Justin Timberlake, who will induct the classic R&B vocal group the O'Jays into the Hall; B.B. King and Eric Clapton, who will honor legendary blues guitarist Buddy Guy; Neil Young, who will induct the Pretenders; and Rod Stewart, who will step to the podium for "When a Man Loves a Woman" singer Percy Sledge.

anybody know how the hell they select who does the inductions?

It's either a random lottery, whoever ponies up the biggest bucks, or whoever's "hot" at the moment. Or maybe a bit of all 3.

These people have no idea what rock and roll is, just go to the museum.

Black Sabbath were hard rock pioneers but have yet to get in but U2 is in, yeah, o.k.
