That's fucking awesome! They definitely should win out of the list, IMO. Now i have a reason to watch the Grammy's this year!

Well the Foo Fighters have a couple of other nominations so hopefully they win those and the Sums take this one.

for a grammy? 1. wow 2. doesn't mean shit.

if we're going for commercial appeal, i say Foo's win it. however, is White Limo critically more accepted than the others o the list? i don't listen to modern rock/hard rock radio, or radio in general so i don't know what song would be the best pick.

That is so fucking awesome!

Mark(tour manager) tweeted about being proud that 2 bands he works with were nominated for a grammy. And I was thinking: nah, that can't be sum 41.. What other acts is he working with?

They finally got some recognition for this masterpiece

Have Sum 41 ever been nominated for a Grammy? I think this is their first one, right? Either way, I think it's great and they totally deserve it for their latest effort.

Quite ironic that Sum 41 (or Deryck rather) gets rewarded after the pain of divorce. Like I said before though, misery can spawn a different kind of creativity.

I'm happy because they deserve it, and these are not the mtvshit awards these are the most important awards that a musician can recieve.

kidding,right ? Didn't Allejandro, Fernando and Roberto win like 8 of these shitty awards last year ?

about the nomination, it's pretty unexpected, but not that out of place, Foos or Megadeath will win it though

Doubt Megadeth or Sums will win. I'd say Foos

if the award shows these days weren't popularity contests, they'd win for sure. But really cool to see them get recognized!
