I just turned it on and Sly (of The Family Stone) was performing with a host of other people and he was fucking up and he walked off stage in the middle of the performance.

The others covered it up pretty good but it was weird that the keyboard right in the middle of the stage, in the front, hoisted on a riser, had no one on it anymore.

Quality :happy:

The Grammys still have about 1 hour and 15 minutes left.

It's 3 hours 30 minutes long.

Right now Jay-Z and Linkin Park are performing together.:ermm:

U2 (How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb) won Album Of The Year. Wtf?

They beat Kanye West, Mariah Carey (who looks stunning btw), and Gwen Stefani.

U2 had the worst of all of their albums imo.:mellow:

I see the Grammys are in the Staples Center where the Lakers play.

I wonder would they ever bring the Grammys to Washington DC (maybe the Verizon Center).

Only if Marion Barry will host (and stock) the aftershow party.

Those musicians and actors wouldn't let Barry near their stash. Vice-versa goes for Barry.
