Will They Be Back?

Acts since 2002 that have been nominated once and may never, ever be nominated again:
Abba
Cat Stevens
Kraftwerk
Conway Twitty
Paul Butterfield
Wanda Jackson
Sir Douglas Quintet

I send that out as a warning to all fans of this year's first time nominees that are questionable first year inductees: Ventures, Donna Summer, Afrika Bambaataa, Leonard Cohen

Notice I left out the Beastie Boys in the above statement.

This is the stupid way the Hall does business. People pop up on the ballot one year and then you never hear from them again. Abba in the Hall! Now that would tick off some people.
