They've gained more notoriety in the last couple of years - I think they're still trying to decide on a physical location.

Their dates are so off  

 

Nominees were announced early and inductees appear to be late.

They have 300 inductees versus 378 in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, but they are a much newer organization so they've inducted/nominated more each year to recognize overdue talent.

[CityPop]

Ready to see Mimi inducted to this and Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
