What is pretentious about taking no notice of this whatsoever? Surely we don't need a faceless award ceremony to suggest music that most of us abhor?

Quote:
I'm not going to bother bolding who I think should win because I don't think most of those artists should win or even be included. |
Quote:
I saw the very beginning just now - I can't believe that Elton John performed with Lady Gaga. I mean, has he really stooped down to that level? |
I'd like to participate for fun but I only REALLY know Dave Matthews Band's music. At least I used to anyway.. they bring back good memories. I'm not familiar with much of anyone else.
|
I hope MGMT, and DMB pull it out.
|
Black Eyed Peas just performed...
That's more than I can take. Good night, Grammy's. |
DMB lost. That's the only category I was interested in.. oh well.
