    Van Halen at the Grammy's

    Someone on this board said that Van hagar sucked ass because they won a grammy. They mocked them and said shit like only fags win grammys, you know shit like that. Someone else said all they did was love tunes and ballads. First off when VAN HAGAR won their grammy, it was for Best HARD ROCK Performance. How can a pop band win a HARD ROCK grammy. Anyways here are some other shitty bands who have won a grammy and how many they have won. So if you like any of these artists burn all their shit because they suck according to several people on this board.

    The Beatles-6
    U2-14
    Eric Clapton-16
    r.e.m.-3
    Santana-10
    Springsteen-11
    Metallica-7
    Pink Floyd-1
    Pearl Jam-1
    STP-1
    Red Hot Chili Peppers-2
    Radiohead-2
    Nirvana-1

    Must have been up against John Tesh and Lawrence Welk.

    Tough call.

    I do not envy the judges.

    I have to agree---Grammys are meaningless BS, as in--maybe Debby Boones record sales increased for a week?! Oh yeah, and the Starland Vocal Band...big Grammy winner there!

    Remember when Jethro Tull won? Or when the Beatles lost out??

    The Grammys dont have a pre-fab Top 40 bubblegum pop category.
    So I guess they couldnt fit them in anywhere else. I mean can anyone seriously sit there and tell me Dreams, Love Comes Walking in, Why Cant this Be Love, Cant Stop Loving you, How do I know when its Love, etc etc are Hard Rock ????

    This dude knows it was me. He has been signed up for 4 days, starts some Sammy shit and then when he got his opinion handed him, he retreated with, "I'm just kidding you guys, I love Dave. Fuck the reunion, and fuck Hagar". Averaging about 50 posts a day, but they are under the guise of "I love Dave, but ...", like we haven't heard that a billion times here.

    My original point was that from the band Van Halen was, with Sammy they turned into a radio driven, power ballad machine, even winning a Grammy. This clown starts the, "So U2 and The Boss suck becuase they won a Grammy?" I didn't say that, I said VH didn't before, now with Sammy, they did and what that tells you about them now.

    So I said, "Well, Timberlake won a Grammy, does that mean he DOESN'T suck?" We know he does, but here's what Dysfunction posted in response:

    There you go. Done with this guy. Craves attention.

    VAN HAGAR - 1 (BEST HARD ROCK PERFORMANCE)
    Have no idea when van(love ballads)gaygar won the grammy(didn't even know that they won a grammy, sic')but when they were given that esteemed piece o metal who else was rockin the world @ that time, and who were they up against, my guess, NO ONE. Like I said before and I'll say it again and again, when thier albums went to #1 who were they competing with for top spot, NOBODY, the state of music was terrible so if you spamsters think that vangaygar are better than CLASSIC VAN HALEN, somethin' is wrong and I mean seriously 0wrong, my belief is that you guys have been turning to long in those little
    ferris wheels inside your cages and have become so fuckin dizzy you have all lost complete comprehension of what makes sense(CLASSIC VAN HALEN) and what doesn't (van gaygar) so keep your senseless banter for the Links.

    typical hagar fan. oh well. Grammy's mean absolutely sweet dick all. The Grammy's, American Music Awards, MTV Awards. Blah..Even Peoples Choice awards. means nothing, because it's the industry who decides who wins. All this decision is based off of chart ratings and tours and albums sales. The trouble is the same industry spends millions of dollars promoting the same band, they vote for to win. Like Dave said., "ask anyone, except the record co. who's hot right now". They know shit. Volumes speak, and at the 96 awards, that standing ovation for the REAL VH was in volumes. The record co. wasn't asleep either. They seen it. They tried in vain to make this work, because they knew there would be $$$ involved. Ed and his sister, just can't make good music. They need to "create" their own thing, just so they can call it THEIRS. They need Dave. We know it. They know it. Dave knows it. Sammy really knows it, the record co. knows it. So whats the problem? Money and pride. We suffer because they are all having their Hollywood moment with the shrink. That would be fine, if it wasn't taking 20 fucking years for them to reconcile.

    Exactly.

    Led Zeppelin was easily one of the most influential bands of the 70s.

    Most everyone who has picked up a guitar, since, has cut their teeth on Stairway to Heaven.

    Van Halen didn't need any grammys, #1 albums or even critical approval back in the day to help them create 6 historic rock and roll albums and build a massive fanbase in the early 1980s.

    And Van Halen doesn't need entry into the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame, or even the benefit of anything that was released after 1984 to give legitimacy to the fact that they were one of the top rock bands of all time.

    What Ed, Al, Mike and Dave recorded and toured to support from 1978 to 1984 is all you neded to know about Halen. Rock should be unpredictable and entertaining. Classic Van Halen were. RRHOF and Grammy ceremonies aren't.

    Van Hagar's won plenty of Spammy awards.

    "The Rock Reunion Nobody Wanted To See" award, and the "Cash-Grab Tour of the Year"award are the newest editions to their collection.

    The Beatles – drug addicts & over rated
    r.e.m.- drug addicts & fags
    Springsteen – drug addict coward-
    Pink Floyd – drug addicted old shoe gazers
    Pearl Jam – drug addicted newer shoe gazers
    STP – drug addict wife beater & shoe gazers
    Red Hot Chili Peppers – dead drug addict & fags to the tenth power

    Don’t have the fascination the press does with the self-deprecating, despondent, insipid, self-loathing, self-destructive retards. And I don’t promote it.

    Common thread among these retards. Can you find it?

    Any questions?

    Don’t have the fascination the press does with the self-deprecating, despondent, insipid, self-loathing, self-destructive retards. And I don’t promote it.

    Common thread among these retards. Can you find it?
    Why did you skip Metallica dumbass? That must be because you like them and they won several grammys which would then make you a "retard".

    Good job. I wasn’t even trolling for a retard but when you put the line out guess what happens. Metallica: I wouldn’t walk across the street to see these guys for free. In fact I might call the authorities to have them shut down.

    Metallica – song thieves & bad tone
    Eric Clapton – former heroin addict & tone master
    Santana – yoga meister & tone master

    The question was: Common thread among these retards. Can you find it?

    Having dealt with this type of response before I’ll let you off the hook, Lee Harvey.
    So Lee Harvey, how much more help do you need?
