Grammy Awards

[Lectric102002]

Anyone else catch AC/DC as the opening act ? Not bad for a bunch of old rockers.

I missed it, been refreshing my memory on the Walking Dead, who was playing drums? Last I heard Phil Rudd was maybe not gonna be able to leave New Zealand.

Missed it. Not too upset. In fact, I would rather be watching American ninja warrior but the wife to watch this. Turned it on to Madonna and her demonic ritual featuring a that reminded me of a church hymn but slightly more pagan.......Creeped me out.

Why does anyone CARE about the Grammy's? Millie Vanilli won a Grammy. (For those who don't remember or aren't old enough to know.....they were fakes who lip sync'd their songs.) They give them to anyone like they are candy.

My wife yelled in from the other room and said AC/DC was coming on. I turned it on and watched them. I had to. I saw AC/DC in 74 on their first USA tour. They opened for KISS. Now they rocked it out, too bad Angus is the only original member left. Bon Scott will be the ONLY lead singer for me. Seeing Bon up close, front row, is something this old man won't forget.
Now days, I would rather listen to Hayseed Dixie doing AC/DC songs to bluegrass music.

When are the real music awards?

Interesting: the drummer performing with lady gaga right is from Richmond.

The Grammys are like the Oscars. Highly paid 'entertainers' (some times, that's REALLY stretching the definition of that word) patting themselves on the back in an overly flamboyant display for what they did (or didn't do) over the past year, and insisting that the 'little people' fawn over them for doing so.

Over the years, I think I've watched each overly drawn out (does any working guy or gal REALLY care who won for 'Best Assistant to the Assistant of the Assistant to the Assistant Sound Engineer'?) program once, listening to some babbling celebrity libtard soapbox their Socialist political views as their 'acceptance speech'.

Those were both sufficiently nauseating never to repeat the experiences!

Doesn't REALLY matter does it?

The point being that the "judges" for the Grammy's can't tell the difference between fakers and talent. Not like WE care anyway. Just another reason to sell advertising on television.....

Kanye west once again showing everyone what an idiot he is....

 

[ArcadiaGP]

To the people who think the Grammys mean something, I'd like to point out that not one winner is actually a grandmother.

To answer the question it was their go to Chris Slade. Solid performance by them, and they aren't young anymore. Chris is 68 and still rocking out with those guys. Cool to see them play, amd their first Grammy performance to boot.

Most other performances were crap. I must say though, Lady Gaga and Tony Bennett were surprisingly good. Her voice is actually perfect for that style of music.

 

[HoughMade]

Kanye's "altered" grandstanding not withstanding, I still think Prince deserved the Grammy for achievement in blow-hardery for this statement: "Like books and black lives, albums still matter."

 

[Thegeek]

Too bad someone like Henry Rollins, Slayer, Hatebreed, etc. didn't get the album of the year..... it would be nice to see Kanye get his due.
