Green Day, Nine Inch Nails, and The Smiths lead 2015 Rock Hall nominees

Green Day, Nine Inch Nails, The Smiths, and Kraftwerk are among the nominees for the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame’s 2015 class of inductees. Other nominees include Bill Withers, N.W.A., Stevie Ray Vaughn, The Paul Butterfield Blues Band, Chic, Joan Jett & The Blackhearts, The Spinners, Sting, War, The Marvelettes, and Lou Reed, who is already in the Hall as part of The Velvet Underground, but could ride the wave of sorrow surrounding his death to a solo induction as well.
