Def Leppard is leading public poll for Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame

Def Leppard 2019

Def Leppard is leading the public vote on which artist should join the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame at the event next year. The band has so far won more than 505,000 votes on the institution’s website.

Second is Stevie Nicks, with more than 395,000 votes. Todd Rundgren closes the podium with 335,000 votes in his favor.

The vote will be closed on Sunday (9). The popular choice counts as if it were one of the other thousand jurors involved in the curatorship – that is, it makes no great difference.

Later this month, the nominations chosen by the curators of Rock And Roll Hall of Fame for the next event will be revealed. There is no date established so far.

The honoring event will take place at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York, United States, on March 29, 2019. The broadcast will be made by HBO weeks later.

In the ceremony of 2018, the following artists were nominated: Bon Jovi, Dire Straits, The Moody Blues, The Cars, Nina Simone and Sister Rosetta Tharpe.

Rafael Polcaro: I'm a Brazilian journalist who always loved Classic Rock and Heavy Metal music. That passion inspired me to create Rock and Roll Garage over 6 years ago. Music has always been a part of my life, helping me through tough times and being a support to celebrate the good ones. When I became a journalist, I knew I wanted to write about my passions. After graduating in journalism from the Pontifical Catholic University of Minas Gerais, I pursued a postgraduate degree in digital communication at the same institution. The studies and experience in the field helped me improve the website and always bring the best of classic rock to the world! MTB: 0021377/MG
