Grammy slide into farce continues

Grammy voters flocked to Lady Antebellum because the song reminded them of Helen Reddy from 1971. Nice little tune, but not song of the year material. Jeez.

Record of the year? Who the FUCK is Arcade Fire? Did they not see Katy Perry spew cream from her boobs in the Californa video? Did they read the card wrong like the year Marissa Tomei won the Oscar? Arcade Fire my ass. Who's even heard of them? Nobody.

What the hell is up with the nominated artists in the rock categories? Eric Clapton, John Mayer (the Justin Fucking Bieber of the cougar set and who wouldn't know rock if you beat him with one), McCartney, Robert Plant and Neil Young. What's the matter, Bill Fucking Hailey and the Comets didn't put out anything this year? Scatman Crothers not have an album? That's not fucking rock.

They even had Dave Cumstain Matthews and Dweezil Zappa nominated in rock categories. Fuck a mighty. There were some legitimate rock bands making some pretty decent music last year. None of the nominated were among them.

Grammys suck. I'm glad I didn't watch that farce. It's like the Oscars. When Pacino didn't win for Godfather II and they gave it to Art Carney for Harry and Tonto? You knew then the Oscars were shit. Garbage smelling shit.

Grammys are as well. Shit burgers. I'd rather have a shit burger than a Grammy.

You're just pissed that KISS didn't win.

So I guess you're rocking that Arcade Fire CD? They're about as rock as Lawrence Welk and Vicki Lawrence.

Actually no, never heard of them. I also didn't waste my time watching the Grammy's.

I didn't see the end to even hear Arcade Fire. Seriously, what do they sing?

The biggest laugh of the night for me though was when Bob Dylan came out to sing Maggie's Farm. After the first verse, my wife looked at me and said they needed to turn his mic up. Well...after they finally did turn it up, she looked at me again and said nevermind.

I did enjoy Mick Jagger's appearance though.

THIS HEAH. I heard that weird no talent THING hung out in an egg and then emerged only to sing like a newborn squealing. I enjoy a good performance as well as anyone, but this is getting ridiculous.

I thought everyone other than teenie boppers and weirdos quit watching the Grammy's years and years ago?

I didn't watch it either. Just heard the results.

BTW, what do you think about Steve Ensminger winning Best New Artist over Justin Beeper?

Dr. Beeper's kid was robbed.

I actually think the old timers being on the agenda bumped UP the quality. Have you not seen today's music? I'd take Clapton, Plant and Jagger anyday over the shit these kids listen to now.

I don't think anyone here doesn't like these guys, but having them nominated in categories more in line with bands like Tool, 3 Doors Down, Hinder, Metallica, Chevelle, Shinedown or whatever is bullshit. Good grief, I'd rather stand point blank in front of an operating blow torch, than listen to Nickelback, but they rock out more than fucking Dave Matthews. ...and that's not a knock on DMB...just a matter of where they do belong vs. where they don't.

JMO...

Yeah. But I think Richard Marx is still dominating the category they SHOULD be in.

Even worse than Dave Matthews (as if that was possible) was THIS guy:

I hate his fucking music to begin with. Wish somebody would stick a frog gigger in his neck. But trying to blatantly rip off Johnny Depp's look? That's the worst.

I wish someone would pave his paradise and put him under the parking lot.

I agree with you for the most part...but this song does not suck. He can play the shit out of the guitar...

The only way you could ever get me to watch that faggot homosexual queer would be if you promised me that at the end Machete would come out and take a weedeater to his head.
