More on the HOF

From Richie and Tico.

The ultimate example of being accepted would be a spot in the Rock ‘n’ Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland, an organization that has snubbed the act. Torres said there’s no rush to be elected there.

“There’s a lot of great bands and there’s only a few that can be put in every time they have that,” he said. “So I don’t know. Again it’s one of those things that we’re not going anywhere right away. So, hopefully, one day, you never know.”

Sambora, on the other hand, explained Bon Jovi should be accepted into the rock hall.

“After you look at our track record and how many people that we’ve made happy in the world through our music,” he said, “yes, I think we deserve to be in there.

“Do I think we’re going to get in? Don’t know. It is definitely a political situation. It’s almost like running for office over there ... We just became eligible, I think, this year by some technicality. I think you have to be 25 years and our first single came out in ‘84 or something like that, so there was something that was wonky. So we’re eligible now this year, so we’ll see what happens.”
