No one else watching the Grammy's?

[ViRGE]

In a world where he wins multiple Grammys, doesn't it pretty much make it worthless for real musicians putting out real albums?

No, not really. There's obviously a big difference between Spoken Word and Best Album. Or even Best Album and Best Instrumental Composition.

I didn't even know it was the grammys, but that's par for the course for me. I'm not a big fan of popular culture

A Led Zeppelin concert that was recorded 7 years ago beat Queens of the Stone Age for best rock album. These awards are totally legitimate.

No, I despise all that kind of bullshit (awards shows, social events, etc).

This, so much this. It amazes me how we put these people on a pedestal.

lol WTF?

 

[dougp]

Everyone should hate Maklemore, but not because he's gay because he's a shitty rapper who makes shitty songs.

Yeah, he's not gay.

 

[SaurusX]

Yeah, he's not gay.

Prove it.

only reason i knew is because i was watching 60 min and they kept saying it was next, i turned the TV off as it started

Because it released last year IIRC.

Also, the one bit of Grammy trivia I know is that when Best Heavy Metal album was first awarded, Jethro Tull beat Metallica among others. I like Tull but there's no way it qualifies as metal.

Oh, and of course they cut off the last performance...one of the few with musicians people will still care about in 30 years.

 

[dougp]

Prove it.

He's engaged to a woman?

 

[SaurusX]

He's engaged to a woman?

Jason Collins.

 

[NutBucket]

He's engaged to a woman?

Elton John was married to a woman. Your point?

(I know nothing about the "musician" that's in question)

 

[Ns1]

Cutting off qotsa was terrible. Waited 3.5 hours for that performance. I can only wonder what we missed.

 

[NutBucket]

I didn't understand why Lindsay Buckingham was part of that. He's awesome but a very strange pairing.

I find it hilarious I'm getting shit for saying he's not gay given what we know as a public, yet QueBert can stereotype just because Macklemore sings a song about gay rights.

 

[AstroManLuca]

I would rather watch the entire Pro Bowl, start to finish, without my phone or tablet, than watch even 5 minutes of any awards show.

Prob due to sound city connection.

 

[AznAnarchy99]

I like Macklemore but Kendrick is way better.

Also I don't think Daft Punk's new album was great at all.

This year's Pro Bowl was much better than expected (still not saying much).

 

[JM Aggie08]

Shockingly low amount of 'Errrr what are the Grammy's? I'm intentionally acting clueless to seem edgy' replies in here.

:thumbsup:

 

[Printer Bandit]

i couldn't understand most the words coming out of kendrick's mouth during his performance.

 

[zinfamous]

I don't know who that is but I'm pretty sure I agree with you.

 

[Ns1]

I don't know who that is but I'm pretty sure I agree with you.

"thrift shop", "same love"? you watch football right? you know, the guy that did the "half time show" for the SEA game last week...

 

[NutBucket]

I would have turned it off but I missed that game.

 

[nageov3t]

Prove it.

what more proof do you need?
