Motley Crue and Van Halen win 2023 hennemusic Rock News Awards

Both bands were the most read-about artists in each category, whose winners are chosen by music fans: total page views determine the Rock News Story Of The Year, while the Rock News Artist Of The Year is based on the combined page views of the top 50 hennemusic rock news stories of the past twelve months.

"From new members to tours to lawsuits, Motley Crue made hennemusic headlines throughout 2023," says Publisher Bruce Henne, "as they notched three spots in the top 10 of the hennemusic Rock News Story Of The Year category, which was won by Van Halen when David Lee Roth shared some behind the scenes information on the band."
