"Artists become eligible for induction 25 years after the release of their first record. Criteria include the influence and significance of the artist’s contributions to the development and perpetuation of rock and roll. " Found on Rock and Roll Hall of Fame site (rockhall.com)
Since their 1st record was released in 1987...do your math and they can be inducted in 2012. Which I believe they are very qualified and no doubt they desearve it. If bands i've never heard of can make it in the Hall of Fame, then the Goos definitely have a great chance since they are known very well around the world by a wide age group. Wow...the goos are gonna be legends!  Not that they arnt already

i think they have a shot. they've definitely earned it. DUTG is what's gonna push them into the Hall Of Fame, i bet, if anything. not that it's a bad thing but they should be appraised for thier other music too. they were barely recognizable by the majority of world until DUTG came out, if not "Name". it would be really awesome if they were comprised in the Hall Of Fame though.  i'm pretty sure they'd be proud and happy about it, as would fans.

"Soon we realized that after doing this together for so long, we developed some talents that as a group tend to come naturally. We realized that we had a rapport among us and in that rapport was power.
"And we realized that our day jobs (as the Goo Goo Dolls) didn't suck as bad as we had thought," he said, laughing (Robby).

If they make it in and The Replacements don't, I will be seriously pissed. I have my doubts that the Goos will be inducted. Not that I don't think they are worthy but I don't think they've been huge innovators or influencers.

Well, I'd give it some time. If I'm correct, the Replacements have only been eligible for a year or two.
Only time will tell.

If by 2012, the 'Mats aren't in yet and the Goos get in, I will be pissed.

I agree they aren't as big and music-scene changing as some other bands. Even though they made a big impact on everyone's lives here, it's only cuz we love them so much and we're their really big fans, but not compared to everyone out there. I would be cool if they got in, and I'm not trying to diss them or anything, just don't get your hopes up.

Would I like to see that happen? YES. Will it? No way. They've got a great sound, but I feel they just don't qualify on the "development and perpetuation of rock". I look at it like this -- have they influenced anything or anyone? Something like a certain rock style/movement (Nirvana and the grunge movement, they're a shoe in when the time comes), or a large amount of upcoming musicians? (the Ramones/Springsteen /Pink Floyd - bands/artists like that). Based on that view, the Replacements SHOULD get in, but not the Goos. I love them to death, but I don't think they're groundbreaking. Sorry guys.  But there are a TON of great bands that will never be in the Hall, just as there are a ton of great sports players that will never be in their respective Hall of Fames. Can't put everyone in, or it wouldn't be special.
As far as not hearing about some of the bands, they take artists from all time periods (and most of us weren't around when rock and roll started), and not all of them are bands. Some are producers/radio personalities people like that.
