CLEVELAND, Ohio (AP) -- About 200 Kiss fans protested in front of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum to demand that the band be inducted into the hall.
Fans, some from as far away as California, carried signs Saturday and had painted their faces in black-and-white to resemble Kiss band members.
Those participating in the half-hour demonstration were upset that the band, formed more than 30 years ago, has not been admitted, even though it has been eligible since the late 1990s.
Artists become eligible for induction 25 years after the release of their first record, according to the museum's Web site.
"Criteria include the influence and significance of the artist's contributions to the development and perpetuation of rock and roll," the site says.
A museum spokesman said it was the first demonstration by fans seeking to have a group inducted.
The foundation that selects inductees is based in New York City, not at the museum.

so what do you think should they be inducted or are they not worth it? their music may be consider crap by most critics but they can't deny how many bands they influenced.

ok my mistake, but like I said no matter what a band says they still want recognition but you are right the R&RHOF is really quite meaningless
