<P> The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame has garnered criticism for allegedly allowing the nomination process to be controlled by a few individuals, nominating too many artists in too many genres that are not entirely rock, ignoring entire rock genres, and using technicalities to induct groups who may not have been among the top vote getters . The surviving members of the Sex Pistols, who were inducted in 2006, refused to attend the ceremony, calling the museum a "piss stain ." </P> <P> The performers category is meant for recording artists and bands that have "influence and significance to the development and perpetuation of rock and roll ." Artists become eligible for induction in that category 25 years after the release of their first record . In order to be inducted, an artist must be nominated by a committee that selects anywhere from nine to a dozen candidates . Ballots are sent to 600 "rock experts" who then evaluate the candidates and vote on who should be inducted . The performers who receive the highest number of votes and more than 50 percent of the vote are inducted . In 2011, the number inducted was five . The rest of the categories are voted on by special committees . In 2012, six additional bands and groups were inducted as performers by a special committee, due to the controversial nature of their band being excluded when their lead singer was inducted . "There was a lot of discussion about this," said Terry Stewart, a member of the nominating committee . "There had always been conversations about why the groups weren't included when the lead singers were inducted . Very honestly, nobody could really answer that question--it was so long ago...We decided we'd sit down as an organization and look at that . This is the result ." </P> <Table> <Tr> <Th> Year </Th> <Th> Image </Th> <Th> Name </Th> <Th> Inducted members </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 1986 </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> Berry, Chuck Chuck Berry </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 1986 </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> Brown, James James Brown </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 1986 </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> Charles, Ray Ray Charles </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 1986 </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> Cooke, Sam Sam Cooke </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 1986 </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> Domino, Fats Fats Domino </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 1986 </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> Everly Brothers!
