Nasa Posted December 6, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2016 I actually think blink has a chance this time around. Weezer should win, though. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patient #48273 Posted December 6, 2016 Report Share Posted December 6, 2016 I'm happy for them, but this seems undeniably like trying to give them credit for past work because it was overlooked at the time. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capsov Posted December 6, 2016 Report Share Posted December 6, 2016 Yeah, it seems like a pretty weak field. They could pull it out, but I dont see it happening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capsov Posted December 6, 2016 Report Share Posted December 6, 2016 Happy for Mark, guy deserves it. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bennett Posted December 6, 2016 Report Share Posted December 6, 2016 very happy for mark. the guy had worked his ass off to make this band work, putting up with whatever bullshit tom threw at him for the past 8 years. still cant ignore the reality of how all of these awards are just run and won by money. its really not about who deserves it unfortunately. but being nominated is still absolutely worth something with that being said, man would it feel good to see them get on that stage and accept the award Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patient #48273 Posted December 6, 2016 Report Share Posted December 6, 2016 Wow, I didn't even look at the other nominees before. That is a shitty group. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Watcher Posted December 6, 2016 Report Share Posted December 6, 2016 This is awesome. I'm sure even those who dislike the album are happy for the guys. It's been a long time coming...anyone know who won it the year Untitled was released? I have a hard time believing there was a better record that year lol 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghost Posted December 6, 2016 Report Share Posted December 6, 2016 To me is just an "alright" thing. Knowing that Grammys are just bullshit, it's all more about curiosity than anything. I mean, it does not prove anything but that they have been doing well for the industry and working for and on the mainstream side of it. It's nice to see them being relevant again. And this will be a total bummer for Tom. What an aopportunity he just missed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capsov Posted December 6, 2016 Report Share Posted December 6, 2016 Like @Patient #48273 said, past work might be enough for blink to get this. But I dont know how the committee thinks, so its a crap shoot I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm far from a Tombot, but part of me actually feels badly for him because this is far from the band's greatest work, yet this is what gets them a Grammy nomination. But I also think he deserves it, so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elisa Posted December 6, 2016 Report Share Posted December 6, 2016 It's an easy one. These are the other nominations: Best rock album: “California” — Blink-182 “Tell Me I'm Pretty” — Cage the Elephant “Magma" — Gojira "Death of a Bachelor” — Panic! at the Disco “Weezer” — Weezer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost Posted December 6, 2016 Report Share Posted December 6, 2016 I think they will win this. They did a lot of noise with the comeback record, the release of Bored To Death, and the California release itself, peaking at #1. It has all the ingredients. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghent Posted December 6, 2016 Report Share Posted December 6, 2016 Holy shit! I'm so pumped for this! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I also think he deserves it, so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. He'd probably make a Facebook post saying something like, Im honored that the group I started won a Grammy blablabla.... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
