June 18th 2011 sadly saw the passing of Clarence "Big Man" Clemons, saxophone player and integral member of the E-Street Band, arguably rock and roll's greatest ever live band. His passing follows the death of E-Street Band keyboard player "Phantom" Dan Federici in 2008.
Incredibly, although they are eligible for entry, the E-Street Band is yet to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, an honor they are surely due. If the outpouring of grief throughout the world at Clarence's passing illustrates anything, it is the high regard and affection in which the band are held.
In memory of Clarence please sign this petition to induct the E-Street Band into the Hall of Fame. It's overdue, and it's heartbreaking the Big Man and Phantom Dan won't be there to see it. Thank you.
I spent the morning reading through your stories about the Big Man and Dan Federici and it is clear I am not the only one who feels their absence on stage. This fight is about recognizing the soul they brought to the music we all love.

Seeing this community grow makes the loss of Clarence and Dan feel a little less lonely. The momentum proves that their legacy is far from forgotten and that they deserve this recognition more than ever.

Miss you Clarence. The hall of fame is meaningless without the E Street Band.

Long overdue. The best backing band in rock history without a doubt.
