Grammys

[Okie Boarder]

Did y'all watch last night? Thoughts?

I kind of liked the Imagine Dragons song mix; Willie Nelson and crew was a little strange...especially Chris Kristofferson; Daft Punk and Stevie Wonder was interesting, but it didn't seem like Stevie was all there; Metallica was pretty good...a little different with the piano mixed in; the wedding deal was kind of strange....seemed like it was forced.

All in all, pretty good show. It seems like it is becoming more and more of a showcase, rather than an awards show.

I turned it off after this.

pretty pumped that gary clark jr won a grammy. not only is he an austin boy, but my friend carlos sosa is his sax player.

taking shots out of the award:




all in all, austin scored 3 grammys

[Okie Boarder]

jryoung, LOL!

jt09, very cool. A friend of ours had a win in her circle, also. Her BF's band won in the Best Tropical Latin Album category.

What was with Pharell's hats? Weirdddddd! I liked Miranda singing with Billy Joe and Pink was impressive.

[Okie Boarder]

Oh yeah, forgot about Pink...that was cool. We have an old friend that does a lot of the pole dancing, acrobatics and aerial stuff.

The Grammy's just re-enforced that the majority of today's music is crap. Look at the performers:

Daft Punk - from the '90's
Metallica - from the '80's
The Highway Men (sorta) - from the ???
Trent Reznor - from the 90's
Even Billy Joe started in the 90's with Green Day.
Paul McCartny & Ringo

There was hardly anyone new, outside of Lorde and the little country chick that won performing.

Metallica was terrible. That was a terrible idea. Paul McCartny's song was probably good for Beetles fans, but I did not care for it. Daft Punk was awesome with Stevie and Pharell.

Overall I thought the show was weak.

[Okie Boarder]

Good point.
