13 comments so far (post your own)Saw this band at Voodoo Music Festival. Have previously seen them twice at Riverbend, but this was 1st time seeing them after they got rid of the losers. Young man standing beside me said for him & those in his age group, this was the biggest band of the weekend. Posted by Paul in KY on Monday, 11/18/2013 @ 13:37pm |
I started listening to Paramore in 2007 around the release of "Riot!". I went to my first Paramore concert in 2009. Since then, I have seen the drama the band has gone through and the subsequent albums, all of which sound better than the one before it. Paramore has one of the best live shows today, which is why I try to see them whenever they pass through my area (5 shows and a cruise, and I still want to see more). If I was to answer if they were ready for induction right now, my answer is no. However, people thought they peaked in 2007. "Ain't it Fun?" is now their most successful song to date, and their popularity only seems to be going up alongside each greater milestone that they accomplish. I think given that they have another 16 years to go, as well as given that they are the most popular female fronted rock band in the mainstream music world as of right now, Paramore will have a fairly strong chance of induction come 2030. Here's hoping at least. :) Posted by NixtonV on Friday, 07/4/2014 @ 15:07pm |
Might not mean anything, but Hayley Williams is being given a Billboard Music Award in the "trailblazer" category for her influence on women performers and for her contributions in multiple musical genres.(pop, rock, funk, hip hop, country, edm, etc). Would that count under the "influence" section of the Hall of Fame? Considering that most of this was done within the band, I would think this would increase Paramore's chances of future induction into the Hall of Fame Posted by Ryan Valentine on Friday, 11/14/2014 @ 14:57pm |
Some funny comments here. Back when they were new, not much hope. But almost a decade later, they (as far as recent rock bands go) are at the top of their game. If they have at least 2 more albums as great as their last 2, should go in with ease. Check back in 15 years and see if I'm wrong. Posted by DJ Dave M on Monday, 07/6/2015 @ 09:42am |

Dude, they'll be at Bonnaroo in June. Playing on the What Stage (the main stage). I expect a massive crowd for the set. The band is from TN, so I expect Full-Metal-Jacket-Paramore. Posted by Paul in KY on Tuesday, 05/1/2018 @ 17:17pm |

Hayley Williams is the Pat Benetar of the 21st century. Posted by Henry on Friday, 04/29/2022 @ 05:21am |
10 years ago, I wouldn't have been stumping for Paramore's inclusion. Now though? Yeah, definitely. Crazily consistent band and they're only getting better. Posted by bella bliss on Tuesday, 03/7/2023 @ 20:03pm |
