    They are all in good company, lol. Each nominee brings a very different approach and outlook. Anyone have a link to the full list? I bet this is the best category for this year, lol

    By the way, John is a big Pearl Jam fan, if you ever hear some of his high school demos (his band was called Villanova Junction), some people think that he's trying to sing like Eddie.

    His favorite PJ album is "No Code"......just for the record.
    Mine too, lol, my 1st intro to John Mayer was his radio hits, but then I was forced into watching him with Clapton (my dad is a DIE HARD fan, so much so he named his 1st born Eric) and I must say watching him play is something amazing, the way he and his guitar interact is something I've never seen before.

  • 10/1/2007 - 09/30/2008 is the window for the Grammy this go-around.
    If that's true then how did he get nominated for a grammy last year?
  • can there be a 5 way tie? :D;)

  • no i was referring to the dumb ass statements. but anyways if John Mayer showed up at a PJ show you'd prob be the first here to proclaim how wonderful it was. He's a world class musician who is nominated for an award (sort of, it's only a Grammy) with 4 other world class musicians. You originally said: "which one of them doesn't belong with the others?" And later clarified it was John Mayer, just saying you're an ignorant douche is all, have a good night;)

    hahaha, you're hilarious...

    did you really just call me a douche cause I don't like John Mayer?!

    hahahaha, that's great...

    Actually not because you don;t like him, more for the fact that you are uninformed about it

    What's the over/under on Eddie winning this catagory? :p

    he'll definitely be the underdog. Mayer might beat them all!

    but all you know about me is that I don't like John Mayer...you're just assuming I'm uninformed about him, which I'm not. Just don't like him...

    I look at that list of five and, to me, one name sticks out like a sore thumb...it should be noted that when I asked my douchey question of which of these doesn't belong, you knew exactly who I meant...

    It's amazing how Grammy actually recognized talent this year.
    By the way John Mayer is pretty cool. He was on Dave Chappelle show once and he cracked me up as how serious he was as he played guitar next to Dave. I think it was an episode about how white people couldn't dance. It was so fucking funny!
    Also, I saw him live and it was a decent enough show.
    no it was about how white people just dance to a different tune. ;)

    oh man, I miss Dave Chappelle... :(

    If that's true then how did he get nominated for a grammy last year?

    Rise was released this year I guess. I remember the year U2 won for best album with All that you can't leave behind. they were nominated for a song the year before.

  • I love Bruce to death, but I don't understand how he is in the best solo category. The Magic album was recorded with the E Street Band. It wasn't like Girls in Their Summer Clothes was taken off a true solo album like Devil's and Dust. I guess I just don't get how these are classified.

    Kings of Leon got nominated for three grammy's too. Mayer wont win cause who ever votes on these things couldn't let him stand up there and receive a grammy in front of neil, mccartney and ed. could they?

    remember when newbie sensation Norah Jones beat out Bruce on a lot of the catagories in 2002/03 Grammys? The year of Come Away With Me and The Rising. so you'll never know who'll win. I actually love both CDs BTW.

    But usually, I hardly ever like the outcome of the Grammys!

  • For those of you who don't care for or don't like Springsteen, I HIGHLY recommend you give the album "Nebraska" a listen. Completely different from any other album he has done. It is a masterpiece that more people need to hear. It definately is in my list of few favorite albums.

    John Mayer is good too, but all the others nominees blow him away.

    But remember, LISTEN TO NEBRASKA! :)

    I think that's always been the case with him. Radio Nowhere won best Solo Rock performance last year, I think.

    Springsteen will probably win becuase the Grammy's are so far up his arse it's absurd. I like Girls In Their Summer Clothes but Rise is definately better. In fact, I think it's the best song in that catergory.
