Tesla is RRHOF worthy in my opinion. Unfortunately, they were lumped in with the hair bands of the 80's & early 90's. I think anybody who listens to Tesla's bluesy rock is impressed with Jeff Keith's vocals in Signs,Love Song,Modern Day Cowboy,Cover Queen etc.

Tesla falls into the category of 38 Special & Cinderella for me as outstanding bands who could never break the glass ceiling into super stardom.It's a shame that some groups who are very talented don't receive the accolades they deserve. Tesla is 1 such band. KING

The reshaping of the Rock And Roll HOF Committee gives a group like Tesla a fighting chance for Induction. There seems to be a lover of Blues type artists by members of the Committee. Tesla's bluesy metal sound should help them in the next 5-10 years. They have plenty of quality songs. Very talented band. I think Love Song and Modern Day Cowboy are Classic songs. KING

Tesla is an underrated band who influenced a lot of bands mostly from the Post-Nirvana era of rock music including Candlebox, Collective Soul, Nickelback, Staind, Creed, Godsmack, Saliva, Buckcherry, Stone Sour, Hinder, and many more.

On the other hand, they may not have a chance to get an induction cause they’ve lost their power staying after Bust a Nut (even if they didn’t split up/went on a hiatus before their return).

Awesome band. Tesla is the only band that can play ANY GENRE of music. I cannot name any other band that fits like TESLA. TESLA ROCKS...and still rocking here in 2020. They are a one of a kind.

It's a shame there not in and if you think they don't belong there you obviously don't know excellence when you hear it. Seriously rrhof you need to unplug your ears and welcome this great band.

They are unique and authentic and truly need to be inducted in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame!!!

It really doesn't matter who gets the best of who. They are my favorite band of all time. Accolades, labels, etc. don't matter. Love keeps Gettin' Better! Listen to the Music. each song speaks for itself. It's my story. Every cover. Every original. It is Kevin N.H. Hook's sound track. Listen to it, Read it, Feel it. Feeling is the most important.

Why aren't these guys (TESLA) inducted into Rockn Roll Hall Of Fame ?? Along with the long list I see the post of on here! Let's get these artist in THERE! before they don't live long enough to know that they DESERVE TO BE SO. These underrated artist have been in the radio industry for decades and when does it happen for these great iconic artists? Get them inducted!!!

Tesla is fantastic, better than ever, and and on the rise! They are selling out shows, writing new music, and with Steve Brown as the new drummer, they are killing it! I've seen them a dozen times since Covid ended, and can't wait to see them again!

I want TESLA in the RnRHoF

Tesla is awesome and deserve a spot too!

Posted by RG on Sunday, 11/5/2023 @ 09:52am

A band who didn't change anything in rock & roll has no business being in the Hall Way below in the league of Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, The Velvet Underground, Jimi Hendrix Experience, The Doors & others.

Not a chance in Hell.

If the Sex Pistols, who only released one album and it sold less than 2 Million units worldwide, made it in the HOF, why not Tesla? Tesla has at least 5 albums that have sold over 1 million copies and they were ahead of its time with Five Man Acoustical Jam, that influenced the MTV's Unplugged trend. I think Tesla deserves to be in the Rock&Roll HOF.

Tesla rocks the world's NUTS OFF , DUMBASS ROÇK N ROLL HOF PUSSIES.
Who are the morons voting anyway ?? Tesla was lumped in with the hair bands because idiots wanted hair, beaver vids, and mag covers, too ignorant to realize the unique EVERYTHING about TESLA !! JEFF KEITH'S RASPY VOICE CANNOT BE EQUALED ! HE WAS GIVEN TO EARTH BY GOD TO BE A HARD ROCK SINGER ! ALL MEMBERS ARE EXCELLENT AT THEIR CRAFTS. THE ROCK HALL OF SHAME ARE DOUCHEBAG PEOPLE IF THEY DON'T INDUCT TESLA THE SUPREME BAND, MY ALL TIME FAVS !!!!

Heaven Yeah they need to be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Its been a long time coming.

If Dolly Parton who is COUNTRY is inducted and Joan Jett who sings COVERS (both artists I love) there is absolutely no reason Tesla isn't inducted! If you have ever seen them live both past and present, they give an amazing show always! It's disgraceful! They would be so humbled by it!
