I had to read the news a couple of times before it really sunk in. So very very happy and proud for the guys. This was of course well deserved and we all know SO was the best album of the year, but considering the competition, it was nonetheless a surprise for me.

And the new video is brilliant as well  8)

MM & Duff's interview from the Awards here:

http://www.classicrockmagazine.com/news/cr-awards-michael-monroe/

"Michael, that was one of the longest acceptance speeches in the history of the Crocks. Can we deduce that you are pretty excited?

MM: Bullshit! Vintage Trouble went on twice as long as I did. And anyway, who gives a fuck. I’ve waited thirty years for something like this, especially to have it presented by dear Duff…"

Big congrats to the band for this, and to the producer as well!
