Kiss was my first concert too 7/3/79.....Nantucket opened for them but Kiss rocked greensboro that night ! Glad to see them inducted in such a fine manner , Tom Morello did one hell of a great job !
I'm a Kiss fan, but I'm not a blind follower. I have a lot of criticism for many things the band has done over the years. However, them being in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is a no brainer. Classic Kiss was the epitome of what rock and roll was/is about.
I was never a KISS fan till I saw this incredible introduction Tom Morello made. My favorite bands: Metallica, Pantera, Alice in Chains, Rage Against The Machine, and even Anthrax, were influenced by this band. And I'm glad to be considered a KISS fan!
I am glad you are a Kiss fan now!!! Kiss, Led Zeppelin, and AC/DC are my personal favorite bands of all time!!! Music is funny though, because there are a ton of more bands that I love as well, Music is always debatable, nobody is totally right when you argue best or not!!! I do think however that Zeppelin is the best hands down, even though I love Kiss more!!! Plant, Paige, Bonham, and Jones!!! Not many people will argue they were the best!!!
Tom Morello is most recognized for his guitar playing, though I think this shows he's first and foremost a public speaker. Seriously. I'm not even a Kiss fan, but this is one of the best speeches on any subject that I've ever heard. If you want to see that Harvard brain of his at work while hidden in plain site, look no further.
MVH Guitar I was never a fan of the music ..always respect what they have done and how long they have rode the gimmick but I tell you that is easily the best induction speech that the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame has ever seen
Please tell me that the ending "You wanted the best you got the best the hottest band in the world KISS!" was intentionally muted in fear of trademark infringement lol
I want Tom Morello to follow me around, and introduce me everywhere I go..
haha, me too
RIGHT ON!!! 🤘😎🤘🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
The greatest introduction to the I've ever heard great job Tom

When I heard KISS was going into the hall of fame. I said "It's about Fucking time". It's long overdue but I'm glad it finally happened.

And with that, we diehard fans appoint TOM MORELLO as General of the KISS Army. Congratulations, Tom, and thank you for your service.
The best induction ever!
I never would have pegged Tom Morello as a die hard KISS fan
The hardest
I was there in person. It's a pity they couldn't just play live together one last time.

MVH Guitar DITTO The same
I could see how he would be able to write some persuasive papers in his years at Harvard.
Forever
I remember watching this live and was like, this is the best introduction I’ve ever heard in my life.
Best induction ever
This should be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction Speech Hall of Fame.
I'm willing to bet y'all were mad that the end was cut out cuz i was but we all know what he said
Every once and awhile because he is an astounding and innovative guitarist, I forget "oh right, Tom is a Harvard grad."
This is one of my 2 favorite rock hall induction speeches. The other being when flea inducted metallica
Please tell me that the ending "You wanted the best you got the best the hottest band in the world KISS!" was intentionally muted in fear of trademark infringement lol
I like how there were more reactions for Ace is more than Gene and Paul's combined
What would you say.... You'd say that bands fuckin awesome.
That's what you'd say
Morello/Hicks 2024
beth is first power ballad? lol
Who is Tom??
He forgot Weezer.
And to think the snobs at the hall of fame snubbed them. Now after their comrade Tom morello says it’s cool they prob do to.
If Paul stanley had real balls....he'd of said
NO THANK YOU
Tom wants to know where the white women at
