Billy Idol recently told UCR he was “knocked out” to receive his first Rock & Roll Hall of Fame nomination. “It’s a great honor,” he said. “If I do get to be in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, you really get a chance to thank your fans.

While the Rock Hall voting is going on, Idol will be rolling out a new album & prepping for his It's A Nice Day To...Tour Again! trek.

"It's a moment where people open their ears as we did when we were kids and listened to the Rolling Stones and the Eagles."

The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame should be less about popularity and more about artistry. So, how to explain the 2025 fan vote so far?

The late R&B singer was the original frontman of The Impressions, a musical group that he co-founded with Curtis Mayfield.

The 83 year-old Rock & Roll Hall of Famer, perhaps best known for mega hits like “Mrs. Robinson,” “The Sound of Silence” and “America,” made the announcement on Tuesday as he referenced his “Quiet Celebration Tour” in an Instagram post.
