Popular Post StrangerInThisTown Posted March 20 Popular Post Share Posted March 20 I'd be really surprised if GNR plays live at this. My prediction: Axl doesn't give a fuck, won't show up Izzy: doesn't give a fuck, won't show up Slash: doesn't give a fuck, will show up to boost public profile Duff: maybe gives a slight fuck, will show up with Susan Steven: loves every second, will show up all and stay night long 7 1 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I think this 62 year old man deserves some time of and rest to do whatever he wants I dont think we can criticise him for not doing much hes been pretty much on tour constantly since 2016. He's not like Slash who lives for touring im sure its just a means to an end but in my opinion he has worked pretty hard. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leandro Jose Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 There is a fine line between this event being a tribute or a consolation prize. The Grammys ignored AfD, UYI and CD. If I were the band I wouldn't show up. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was my question. Do they actually get a Grammy now? Because they do deserve one, and it was an egregious omission all those years ago that they never won one. IMO, these "lifetime" type awards are a way to honor artists who definitely deserve accolades. Especially when the record or music in question has stood the test of time. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I‘m not misinformed AFD was reviewed pretty bad when it was released. Nobody paid attention to the record at first. It took a whole year till it went number one on the Billboard Charts. No chance for a grammy back then. It’s a different story with yLies and the Illusion records, though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackstar Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 (edited) The Grammy's have always been a corporate and very conservative institution (worse than the Oscars), always too late (if ever) to acknowledge and embrace artists and currents that were innovative or "it" in their time. For example, seeing the full list of all recordings inducted into the Grammy Hall Of Fame since 1973, punk is represented only by the three+1 albums (The Ramones, The Sex Pistols, London Calling by The Clash + Patti Smith, if that counts). https://www.grammy.com/awards/hall-of-fame-award That said, most of the recordings in this list that I'm familiar with are masterpieces. And considering that this is a "hall of fame" for recordings from all genres of music (classical, jazz, film music, original casts, pop, etc.) and the only other hard rock artists in it are Led Zeppelin (two albums and two singles), AC/DC (Back In Black album), Aerosmith (two singles) and Alice Cooper (School's Out single) - also Nirvana's Nevermind album and Smells Like Teen Spirit single, and Pearl Jam's Ten album (if these count) - this induction is something. Kind of surprising that SCOM hasn't already been inducted as a single before the album, but it most likely will be in there eventually, as well as November Rain.
