Poll question: Who's more deserving to be in the Rock Hall Of Fame: Spinal Tap...or Gene "More Cowbell" Frenkle?

(Assuming you were on the induction committee and were given a choice of either one or the other.)

Which of the two has contributed more to music history?

Spinal Tap:




The late Gene Frenkle (of Blue Oyster Cult):

3. Spinal Tap.
And quite easily. I fail to see what the hell was so funny about the cowbell skit.

6. I hate it
if there was a version without that fucking cowbell, I'd listen to the track.

In fact, if you listen close, which is hard not to do since it's so overpowering, you can actually hear him getting tired halfway through

7. Glad I'm not the only one. The skit was mildly amusing, nothing special.
And without Christopher Walken it would have been absolute shit.

8. I fail to see what the hell is so funny about Will Ferrell, period.
Mr. Scenery Consumption yells "MEATLOAF" at the top of his lungs and people shit themselves. If you or I did it, we'd just be obnoxious.

Where's the funny? I'm all ears.

And Christopher Walken carried that skit, not Will.

11. Of course the TAP.
The group responsible for Big Bottom and Sex Farm is an automatic.
