:lol:
Open your eyes to nights and days, you close them up and float away
and somehow inbetween you've got to master lying to yourself
you back the cause, get out of school, you get a job, the job gets you
and somehow every day you end up serving somebody else
now if that ain't panic that you're feeling, then you damn well better start
you can drive it into that head of yours with the hammer in your heart.

And it's alriiiiiiiight now, take the world and make it yours again.

I agree. The grammys have proved themselves completely irrelevant by not acknowledging those artists that have made a progressive contribution to rock music this year.

I have to disagree. I've listened to Neil's new album, and believe me i love the man, but i was shocked to see it even in this category. It's not a rock album at all in my opinion. And although this is just me talking out of my ass, i've heard that the stones album wasn't that great. Prarie Wind is worthy of winning something, but I'm not sure about it winning a rock grammy. Even though I'm not a huge U2 fan I would say that either their album or The Foo Fighters deserve to win.

as for The Alternative Section:

They're all deserving bands of the prize in my opinon. Although The White Stripes album was in my view their worst. I'm rooting for The Arcade Fire of course, but i don't think they'll win.

The foo fighters album was pretty solid, but nothing worth rock album of the YEAR. They didn't do anything amazing or all that new.
