Dee Snider Blasts Rock Hall Of Fame As ‘Elitist’
Dee Snider is not one to hold back on his opinions – including his thoughts on the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
The Twisted Sister frontman lashed out at the Hall on Twitter, calling its committee members “arrogant elitist a******s” that “look down on metal & other bands that sell millions because we’re not their definition of cool.”
The RnR Hall committee members are arrogant elitist assholes who look down on metal & other bands that sell millions because we’re not their definition of cool. The fan vote is their “throwing a bone” to the peasants. I want to say FU, but I want them to have to deal with us! https://t.co/mUoUbkYx3C

Snider pinned the blame on Hall-founder and Rolling Stone editor Jann Wenner, tweeting “puppet master since day one. If it ain’t in Rolling Stone it is hard pressed to get into the Hall of Fame’.
This year’s list of HOF nominees includes heavy metal legends Iron Maiden. The finalists will be announced in May.
Do you think the Rock Hall of Fame is biased against metal bands? Will Iron Maiden finally make the cut this year?
