The 38th annual Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony will take place at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York on November 3rd.

To be eligible for the Hall, an artist or band needed to have released their first album 25 years prior to their first nomination, which would now be 1998. More than 1,000 artists, historians, and members of the music industry vote for the nominees on a ballot. Other factors are considered for the artist or band, such as “length and depth of career and the body of work, innovation, and superiority in style and technique,” per the Rock Hall Foundation.
