Which band/artist do you think deserves to be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame?

I based my decision on length of career, influence, 'hits' and consistency. My list is

Alice In Chains

Soundgarden

Pearl Jam

Dead Kennedys

Iron Maiden

Judas Priest

Motorhead

Pantera

Slayer

Dio

I don't think any of these are too unreasonable, except maybe Pantera after what happened with Phil. I find it sad these bands aren't in already, especially when Green Day made it...

    There is a minimum wait time before bands can get in. They need to meet certain requirements be being eligible. And just because someone in a band has died means nothing, it can actually sometimes help. Metallica got in and Burton had been dead for over 15 years. No band on your list should not get in, the hall has changed a lot in the past 15 years or so. It used to carry something if you got in, now its just another stop for some bands. The hall still needs certain members in and they will get their time. Look how long it took Deep Purple.

    Anyone besides NWA, rappers and hip hoppers and music that is NOT Rock! I don't even know who is in and who is not, just that A LOT of great artists who SHOULD be in there aren't and a lot of KRAP that isn't Rock is in there. I really couldn't give sh about that farce of a HOF.
