Rock and Roll Hall of Fame: The top 5 biggest omissions

The announcement Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's class of 2011 will fill some important gaps in its roster, most notably heavy metal pioneer Alice Cooper, R&B singer Darlene Love, and all-around swell guy Neil Diamond. But there are still some notable gaps in the Hall of Fame's alumni. Here are the top five biggest omissions by the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame:

5. The Monkees

4. Hall & Oates

3. KISS

2. Brian Eno

1. Kraftwerk

So, what's your opinion on these alleged omissions...? Have others you'd add to the list? I'm still waitin' on Meat Loaf and Jim Steinman.

I'm not a fan of any of them. I saw Kiss twice and had to go out in the lobby cause I thought they were that bad. They opened once for Wishbone Ash and I don't remember who else. I never heard of them the first time I saw them.

I don't think any of those groups - in particular Kiss, should be anywhere near the Rock N' Roll Hall of Fame. They are absolutely untalented, except maybe for Gene Simmons' tongue.
