Not sure how much the fan vote counts, but as I recall we have some Warren Zevon fans here, if you are one, here is a chance to vote for him- he's currently just outside the top 5, that he needs to be. vote.rockhall.com/en/results/

Unfathomable that it is Warren's first time on the ballot.
Shadows are fallin' and I'm runnin' out of breath Keep me in your heart for a while If I leave you it doesn't mean I love you any less Keep me in your heart for a while When you get up in the mornin' and you see that crazy sun Keep me in your heart for a while There's a train leavin' nightly called "When All is Said and Done" Keep me in your heart for a while

The rock hall has clearly favored a big tent approach for a long time and I'm fine with that (even if many of the artists wouldn't have fit my ideas of rock 50 years or even 20 years ago).My own tastes have continued to branch out over time. I still like everything I used to, but I like a lot more now.
Still voting for Warren, the allowed once a day, he had dropped to 7th, but then back up to 6th. Hope he makes it, as I don't think it should even be a close call.

Update- Warren is now up to 3rd on the fan ballot.
There is a story that Jann Wenner of Rolling Stone who has some high level position at the Rock Hall had conspired to keep Warren out base on some past slight.

Wenner sold Rolling Stone and no longer chairman of The Hall and Springsteen and Jackson Browne spent the last 2 years working on getting Warren on the ballot for the first time. Wenner and Zevon bad blood is true.

Extremely disappointed, bordering on outrage. IMO the credibility of the Hall has been suspect for a long time, so I should not be surprised.
