One article found online, "AC/DC Win First Grammy Award" is abuot hos AC/DC finally recieved recognition for being one of the best rock bands. The band had been nominated for a grammy on several occassions throughought the history of AC/DC but on January 31, 2010 they finally succeeded in obtaining one. The grammy award was for "Best Hard Rock Performance of the Year." some of the nominees from the same group included: Metallica and Alice in Chains. That same day, AC/DC was nominated for "Best Rock Album of the Year" and unfortunately Green Day took the grammy. Even though AC/DC has not won many titles, they still make their mark in history as an oustanding rock band. Had AC/DC been highly recognized earlier in their career, would they have received moe nominations and more awards throughout their career?
