As announced in December, Madonna and four others will be inducted tomorrow in the already compromised "Rock N Roll" Hall of Fame, the popular and dubious organization and museum which inducts as of late anybody but rock and roll artists. Madonna along with John Mellencamp, The Ventures, Leonard Cohen and The Dave Clark Five, were the chosen ones for 2008’s annual induction ceremony.

The induction decision was made by a panel of 600 industry insiders who selected the five acts to be inducted during the March 10 ceremony in New York’s Waldorf Astoria hotel, out of the nine artists nominated last year. Afrikaa Bambaataa, the Beastie Boys, Chic and Donna Summer failed to make the cut.

In order to be considered for induction, an artist must have issued a first single or album at least 25 years before nomination. In order to be considered for this year’s induction, an artist must have issued their first single or LP no later than 1982. Madonna released her first song "Everybody," on April 24, 1982 after having signed with Sire Records. Each inducted artist is commemorated at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum in Cleveland, Ohio.

"It seems like this is driven by commercial achievement and sales, rather than having anything to do with the rock 'n' roll genre," said to AP Steve Morse, a Boston Globe music critic who was a member of the nominating committee for seven years. "It's really a commercial move. They'll be able to sell more tickets to the museum and more people will watch the broadcast."

Madonna apparently refused to perform at Monday night’s Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Show, Fox reports. Instead, it appears that Iggy Pop will sing some of her hits. As previously announced, Justin Timberlake will induct Madonna. This echoes somewhat that The Sex Pistols did back in 2006 when they were inducted. They actually refused to attend the ceremony, calling the museum a "piss stain." Well, not exactly my language, but I can't argue with the underlying message.

The Sex Pistols said "We're not your monkeys" in the handwritten letter which you can read here.

Tom Hanks will induct The Dave Clark Five, the 1960s British pop group that had hits like “Glad All Over” and “Bits and Pieces.” Though similar to the Beatles, the Dave Clark Five never enjoyed the Fab Four’s success.

Billy Joel will induct John Mellencamp, whose 1982 album, “American Fool” garnered widespread appreciation, while Lou Reed will honor Leonard Cohen. Ben Harper will induct Little Walter, who produced 14 Top 10 hits on the R&B charts before his death in 1968 at 37.

John Fogerty will induct instrumental rock band The Ventures, whose hits include “Walk Don't Run” and “Hawaii Five-O.”

Singer-songwriter Jerry Butler will induct Kenny Gamble and Leon Huff, founders of the Philadelphia International record label that collaborated with R&B artists such as Butler, The O'Jays, Patti LaBelle and Lou Rawls.
