11 Grammys as a band! Along with three for the Anthology project. That's a total of 14 Grammys! I believe that ties them with U2 for most won by a band.

[Sondra]

Hey and weren't they just awarded something at the Grammys this year? I didn't watch but I heard they did something. Jeez after all these years and they're still winning awards! Amazing.

[Bruno]

No, I don't think they won anything. The Grammys had a tribute to them, that's all, I think

[Sondra]

Oh ok. That makes sense! They should have a tribute to them every year!

[Rowdy]

It was a "tribute" for lack of a better word........Dave Matthews and some other guys performed a horrid, out of tune-sloppy version of "I Saw Her Standing There". Big disappointment.

I like the 80s. The 80s were hands down the best decade of my life so far, and there's some pretty great (new wave, punk rock and hardcore) music from the 80s.

The hair and clothes were horrible beyond words though.

 ah i hate Metallica.......and i love all the other bands

[Sondra]

I was never crazy about them either! I saw them in concert with Ozzy and thought my head would explode.

Heh, my ears were ringing for hours after the Metallica show that I watched.

With the exception of Lennons Murder , $3.35 an hour minimum wage jobs , Tickle down on you Reaganonomics and alot of really lame ass politicians the 1980s were ok . We had musically, Springsteen, Clapton, U-2, SRV, REM, The Wilburys and Tesla To name a few . As far as the porn, did'nt any of you see anything with Ginger Lynn (YUM!!!!) Christy canyon, or Nina Hartley in it ? There were no horse bushes on any of the three and with the exception of

Can't say I've ever seen anything with those girls in it.  But the amateur stuff from the era is so gross, I can't believe the people in the video were able to do it without vomitting all over each other.  I'm only 20, so too young to have seen concerts in the 80's, but they sure as hell are expensive now.  Clapton tickets were 90 dollars this time around for the good seats.  I didn't go unfortunately.

[RICKENBACKER325]

Yes, concerts are ridiculiously expensive now. But at the time  i thought 10.00 to see The Who was alot. Last thought on porn, never watch the amatures it can be sick, its kinda like watching your neighbors. You know, the ones you would not want to see naked even on a bet? Always go for the "Name" headliners and at least you will know the girls will be hotties

[strutter84]

Yes, but the big names are so expensive.  I just stay away from porn altogether these days. 

And 10 dollars to see the Who is nothing.  I'd gladly pay that.  I'd pay 90 dollars to see Clapton too if I had somone to go 4 hours to Omaha with me tomorrow.  No one wanted to go with me unfortunately.  So I won't get to see him once again.  *sigh*
