Hall of Fame Inductees
On 14 July 2005, ARIA sought to create a separate standalone 'ARIA Icons: Hall of Fame' event as only one or two acts could be inducted under the old format due to time restrictions. Since 2005 VH1 obtained the righs to broadcast the ceremony live on Foxtel, Austar and Optus networks; and each year five or six acts were inducted into the Hall of Fame with an additional act inducted at the following ARIA Music Awards. The following were inducted into the ARIA Hall of Fame in July:
- Smoky Dawson inducted by Jack Thompson
- The Easybeats inducted by Billy Thorpe
- Renée Geyer inducted by Michael Gudinski
- Hunters & Collectors inducted by Peter Garrett
- Normie Rowe inducted by Ian Meldrum
- Split Enz inducted by John Clarke
Inducted at the October ceremony:
- Jimmy Barnes inducted by Bernard Fanning

Famous quotes containing the words hall and/or fame:
“I may be able to spot arrowheads on the desert but a refrigerator is a jungle in which I am easily lost. My wife, however, will unerringly point out that the cheese or the leftover roast is hiding right in front of my eyes. Hundreds of such experiences convince me that men and women often inhabit quite different visual worlds. These are differences which cannot be attributed to variations in visual acuity. Man and women simply have learned to use their eyes in very different ways.”
—Edward T. Hall (b. 1914)
“To anybody who can hold the Present at its worth without being inappreciative of the Past, it may be forgiven, if to such an one the solitary old hulk at Portsmouth, Nelson’s Victory, seems to float there, not alone as the decaying monument of a fame incorruptible, but also as a poetic approach, softened by its picturesqueness, to the Monitors and yet mightier hulls of the European ironclads.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
