Man, the Grammy's sure sucked.

[thestonesfan]

I watched bits and pieces. Were they always this bad?

The White Stripes song was okay. That whole funk thing was terrible. George Clinton is proof that copius amounts of drugs do not always mean better music.

And was Sting wearing a dress?

 

[Double Barrel]

haha! I haven't watched the Grannies in ages, so to answer your question, YES!, they have always been bad.

I remember back in the day when they first had a heavy metal category and messed up by giving it to Jethro Tull instead of Metallica. They felt so stupid after the backlash that they gave Metallica the award the next year for doing a cover song of Queen's "Stone Cold Crazy".

I'm not a fan of self-congratulatory bad-product-pimpin' industry "award" ceremonies. Too much pomp and circumstance for this cynic to barf through.

I woudnt Know, I've never seen the grannys
those kind of shows bore me a lot

You're not married, are you?

 

[The Yankee]

Nope. Still...why would you bother!?

The thought of watching it makes me want to .... nevermind.

 

[Knight-Dragon]

I have never watched any Grammys, or any awards shows of any kind. I'd rather listen to the music, or watch the movie, than watching some award about the music, or the movie...

Lesson #1 - If you sit with the wife and watch crap TV, you have a much better chance of getting some lovin' than if you spend the time playing computer.

Lesson #2 - After you've played computer all day, you better go down and sit with the wife to watch some crap TV.

We really didn't watch much of it anyway. She was more involved in a stupid wedding show.

So true. I still prefer my computer time, so I get very little loving.

Lesson #3 - When finally seeking a mate, choose one that would not watch that crap in favor of other crap, like the Home Shopping Network.

so true, I'm so glad that my girlfriend hates these shows (as well as "girl-flicks"). but then, if watching crap tv is the only thing you have to do in order to be with the woman of your dreams it isn't that high a prize to pay

The problem, though, is that women are fickle. They might not like something one moment, then *bam!*, before you know it, you're cuddling to "You've Got Mail".

Fortunately, for the time being, my wife does not like award shows or chick flicks. She does, however, like those stupid reality dating shows. Go figure.

She's probably saying the same thing about you and CFC and civ .

I've never watched any award shows cause the whole point of it seems to be one big publicity stunt for all the bands/movies or actors. I don't understand why I should care if some movie won 6 academy awards, it's not like that'll make me run out and buy it. The whole red carpet pre-award show nonsense is just more publicity crap, just like those stupid TV shows that only report on the latest entertainment news.

 

[Syterion]

I can't believe Evanescence won Best New Artist. They are so amazingly terrible. Even their single sucks.

Beatles Tribute was good, though.

Mine prefers the reality makeover shows - be they about rooms, straight men, or ugly women.

"Blind Date" was a good show, though. It's not on as much these days, unfortunately.

It all went downhill after the White Stripes played. In fact it was going downhill before that, then it peaked for a little while, then it went downhill again.

They need to book more serious musicians like that.

(Also, if you're a Stripes fan, you were overjoyed that they played Death Letter, since that's a fan favorite but was never a hit single.)

EDIT: Of course, now you can relive the best part of the Grammys...

 

[Inter4]

They give grammies to the most commercialized ''singers'' or groups, etc., not the best ones.

 

[Archer 007]

I thought it was only me who thought so.
