What happened to the Grammy thread?
I guess there wasn't one.
I normally never watch award shows where celebrities pat each other and themselves on the back all night. I also have no idea who votes for these winners.
I was just passing thru and did like the Zack Brown with Leon Russel set. But, the show quickly went off after they had Celene Dion singing a Michael Jackson tune, which was bad enough. When Green Day won Best Rock Album of the Year, I was definitely through with the show. If that is the best Rock there is, then Rock Music is dead. How in the world can they have the best rock album?
Do you really want to beat a dead horse?

We've been down this road many times on RR, and I the consensus is that the Grammy's are nothing but a popularity contest, musical taste is subjective and can't be properly 'judged', so we don't really care. I don't think there's a problem discussing the various artists, and some truly good ones that I like (Wilco) have won awards, but arguing who is the 'best' is futile.
Also, many on here like Green Day quite a bit. I don't and it appears you don't either, so maybe we can start a Green Day thread and bash those nut-jobs who like them.
