Dropkick Murphys

A popular Celtic Punk band from Boston, the Dropkick Murphys certainly found a place for themselves in the musical canon. With a solid live show and unique music, the Massachusetts band made people take notice, but realistically speaking, if any Celtic Punk band gets into the Hall, shouldn’t it be the Pogues? 

599. Doves

From Madchester to Brit Pop, it may have taken some time before Doves were popular in England, but when they did, they were able to hit the top of the charts, although for a brief time. As with many Brit Pop bands; it stands to reason that if you were not one of those who could make it in America, it has to seem unlikely that they will ever make it to Cleveland. 

157. Destiny's Child

Beyonce Knowles may have embarked on a stellar solo career, but she was first known as part of Destiny’s Child; an ultra-successful all girl vocal group that scored a myriad of hits, many of which are still heard on radio today. Beyonce is a megastar; which is certain, but is she a Hall of Famer, and if so, should be in with her first act? If this music survives the test of time (and it probably will), this is not as unlikely as you would think . 

8. Coldplay

Whether you love Coldplay or detest them (there does not seem to be an in between) they have set a course for themselves that could make them an early Hall of Fame entry. They have conquered both sides of the Atlantic, were constantly on the charts and they have just enough critical respect to make them a complete candidate.

Often using lush arrangements, Coldplay straddled the line between Alt-Rock and Pop Rock, giving them a mass appeal, though it also overexposed them. This led to a backlash in some circles, with an overrated claim, but this is a very talented bunch who will enter Cleveland one day.
