The Residents - N/A I've only heard a few albums out of the dozens they've released so I'm not going to vote.

Iron Maiden - Yes. They are certainly a huge force in metal music, inspiring musicians through today, and were the greatest metal band from that whole NWOBHM. I don't like a lot of that scene, but there's something special about them.

Jimi Hendrix - Yes...

CCR - They are, imo, the gods of southern rock. A genre where I have a hard time finding artists I truly love. They just make the greatest feel good, down south rock that I've ever heard, and have a huge influence that I think is often overlooked.

MOB - N/A. I'm really indecisive, I can't decide if they deserve it or not.

Beethoven - N/A. I don't listen to classical music. Of course I know some of his songs, but I haven't heard much to compare him to and it's all very neutral to me.

The Residents: Yes, basically for the reasons Anteater stated

Iron Maiden: Yes, of course there's a place for the premier band of metal. Few bands are as influential, widely liked, hardworking, consistent and devoted as them. They played a big part in my high school life and I hope to see them live one day.

Jimi Hendrix: Yes, and I don't think this needs an explanation.

Creedence Clearwater Revival: Yes. I've listened to CCR for a long time and they seem to have this extraordinary ability to pump out classic after classic. But they were more than just big hits - they have a string of solid studio albums and Cosmo's Factory is stellar.

Mission of Burma: No. I like the band but they're not HOF material IMO.

Ludwig Van Beethoven: Yes. I don't bust out the Ludwig Van as often as I'd like but I've always been a fan, ever since I was a kid.

The title 'Southern Rock' makes no sense for CCR. They aren't from the South and their music really has no southern tendencies.

You mean no "southern rock tendeancies?"

They certainly have Southern aspects, like being born on the bayou, or riding river boats.

The Residents - Abstain.

Iron Maiden - No, because even though they are widely regarded as very influential musicians I've never really been a huge fan.

Jimi Hendrix - Yes... if I believed in God he'd be a black, left-handed guitarist.

Creedence Clearwater Revivial - Abstaining because I'm not really into southern-esque rock but I haven't really listened to enough.

Mission of Burma - Abstain

Ludwig Van Beethoven - No, because although he is a highly regarded classical musician I've never really heard anyone on MB mention him until now and this IS the MB Hall of Fame. I never really got into Beethoven as much as I did with other classical artists either.

The Residents - N/A

Iron Maiden - Yes, I nominated them, like them or not, you can't help but know they are influential, one of the best metal bands, and still going strong after 30+ years.

Jimi Hendrix - Yes. Like everyone said he is a god. Still inspiring teens around the world to get off their lazy ass, stop playing Guitar Hero, and pick up a real guitar.

Creedence Clearwater Revival - Yes, They might not be something special but in my opinion they have not put out a dull album, and have some good tunes.

Mission of Burma - No, I didn't know much about the band, put I pulled them up, an they just failed to amuse me.

Ludwig Van Beethoven - Yes. Are You Kidding Me?

The Residents - No. Boooring.

Iron Maiden - Yes, extremely influential, and talented as well.

Jimi Hendrix - Yes, no explanation neccasary

Creedence Clearwater Revivial - Yes, because they're great.

Mission of Burma - No. I've never even seen them mentioned on MB until nominated.
