Dave Matthews Band Chances At The Grammys Just Went Up!

The Grammy buzz has been incredible lately for the band with Dave being involved in a lot of upcoming projects, but the best news of all comes just a week before the nominations are officially released.

The Grammy policy states that any artist that performed on the AMAs telecast cannot perform on the Grammy telecast.

This eliminates:
Jay-Z
Alicia Keys
Adam Lambert (thank God!)
Rihanna
Eminem
Jennifer Lopez
Green Day
Janet Jackson
Black Eyed Peas
Whitney Houston
Mary J. Blige
Keith Urban
Carrie Underwood
Kelly Clarkson
Daughtry
Shakira
Lady GaGa

It is almost a certainty that the band will perform on the show now. Also expect Taylor Swift to perform who was in London during the AMAs telecast.

These rules could always change, but the academy at this time seems pretty confident in not changing anything.

And now que the "Fuck THE GRAMMYIEZZZZS" comments.

They will probably play "Funny" as that is what they will be nominated for in the rock categories.

Some artists will play what they are nominated for, and part of a new song, but typically the academy requires you to play what you are nominated for. There are all sorts of rules in place.

Grammys haven't been meaningful in the past 20 years.

I don't think they have much say in what they perform on awards show.

This is great news, maybe the Grammys will get it right this year.

Re: Dave Matthews Band Chances At The Grammys Just Went Up!

It would certainly be nice to see the band nominated and even better to see them win but I still have an awful disliking for the snub on my man LeRoi. I'd also like to see them do Shake Me just to shake things up at the Grammys'. Now that would be cool.

the only thing i'd rather see them do is a full blown two step.

I bet they are nominated at least once, probably Rock Performance by a Duo or Group w/Vocal, possibly Best Rock Song or Rock Album.

Also if they aren't performing I'd like to see them refuse to go in recognition of the LeRoi snub.

Are people still not over the Roi thing? We get it was a total fuck up by the Grammys, but who cares anymore? They're pieces of shit, why expect anything more out of them?

Re: Dave Matthews Band Chances At The Grammys Just Went Up!

i hope they win at least one award (if nominated of course). get one of their songs on a grammy winner compilation album, people enjoy it, more people wanna buy big whiskey.. this all equals more good music in the hands of more people

I think they're more likely to win something this year to "make up" for the fuck up.

I think the band has enough class that if they're invited and asked to play, they will.

Re: Dave Matthews Band Chances At The Grammys Just Went Up!

people who are bitching about the people bitching about the grammys need to realize there hasn't been another grammy award ceremony since the roi thing. if this was a monthly thing, people would have stopped bitching about it last year, but its not. they're still complaining about it because this is the first time the band would have anything to do with the grammys since what happened. after this year no one will be complaining anymore. so everybody bitching about the bitching, just chill the fuck out for a few more months and it'll all be over. alright?????

The band will easily get a best rock album, best rock song, rock performance duo/group

they could get album packaging and album notes for Big whiskey

and if they are really lucky album of the year.

The dumbfucks that have been bitching about this Grammy mistake since February may in fact be bigger shitheads than the DMB mgmt. If by now, they haven't figured out that it was an honest mistake on the part of the Grammy Foundation, well then, there is no question that they are bigger shitheads. If they just want to hold a grudge for an entire year, and then drop it, well, that makes them shitheads also.

Re: Dave Matthews Band Chances At The Grammys Just Went Up!

I don't care about the Grammy's just because I don't care about the Grammy's. It WAS an asshole move on their part not to recognize Roi, intentional or not. It was completely idiotic to recognize countless people that no one knows and ignore the sax player from one of the most popular bands in the country.

On the other hand, if invited I hope the band does play the Grammy's. I hope they win a bunch of awards. I want to see them get as much recognition for their amazing work as possible. I don't put much stake into the Grammy's at all, but some people do, and if help spread DMB's music, I'm fine with that.
