HHH better win. Anyone who uses Motorhead to sing an entrance theme for YEARS is the fucking man.

Gene Hoglan better win best drummer.

some interesting picks here.

Odds that anyone from Refused shows up?

I went last year, it was a blast.

Seriously? VH not under Comeback of the year?

I doubt it since they aren't even a band anymore.

[QUOTE=PVH5150;509762]Seriously? VH not under Comeback of the year?[/QUOTE]

Didn't they win last year?

[QUOTE=MPF;509765]Didn't they win last year?[/QUOTE]

No clue.

Just figured that because their album & tour were in 2012 that they'd be eligible for a 2013 award.

If a band wins comeback of the year twice in a row it should be called the Don't Call It A Comeback Award.
