BOC was a head of most ROCK bands of the times and their songs are played , hummed, on TV shows, movies.

One of the most influential bands (or what's left of them, anyways), ever! Overlooked for far too long!

First concert I ever saw at age 13. been a fan for almost 50 years. Just saw them at Sony Hall in NYC three nights in a row. First three albums in their entirety. Beyond awesome. Should have been inducted decades ago. Still rockin' and as good as ever.

Most under rated band and all the real music tends to b classic rock. BOC is played all the time on these stations. The core 2 men still play great. Eric and Don into their 70’s now.

I saw them with the boys in 1971 and saw them with my boy in 2009. Saw them in 94 at a club and they were terrible. I thought they were done. Then we saw them for my sons first metal concert in 2009 and they were great! Their recent album is freshly original, grinding, east coast metal. Let's start our own metal hall of fame.

Listen is ETI, what a riff and rock song. True tragedy BOC is being snubbed by hall of fame. Buck Dharma one of the best and most unique lead guitar players! Mark W

Seen the BOC 15 times.I used to get loaded with Eric Bloom's nefew Lawrence.Anyway,Bloom was nice enough to sign a band pic and he was checking out my girlfriend too,nice compliment(guess he likes redheads)--top shelf guy,and a total singing BAD ASS)Get it together R&R H.O.F and induct "The hardest working American band ever".In fact in 1993 at the Coachhouse I yelled "Blue oyster cult forever" and they came out with a shirt a year or two later that said "Blue Oyster Cult on tour forever". -- I bought one of course. That was my material, but now feel I contributed somehow.They all high five'd or shook my hand for two years consecutive 92',93', at the Coachhouse--- they really are good guys and work like hell on stage.RIP Allen Lanier he should have been at the HOF a long time ago before dying. Don't wait 'till more in the band dies, get 'em in faster damn it.BOC fans--may the road rise with you.

Don’t Fear the Reaper & Godzilla are legendary! The movie AND phrase ‘Heavy Metal’ would never exist without them! Are we done yet? It is CRAZY they haven’t been inducted

Is there any freaking doubt that BOC belong in the hall of fame? F--k no! This is a seriously more talented band than most. Not a lot of blues, just a lot of heavy introspection + ass kicking rock and roll, always with an ear for melody...

Talk about having a unique approach to Rock and Roll, and a long list of artists that have been influenced by their music...and a live band second to none! BOC in HOF!
