I've never been more happy that the record industry is completely and utterly collapsing than last night.
 
 Way to go Grammies!  Way to say you know what's going on in 2008!  Herbie Hancock!?!?!?!?  WTF?!?!  Is this worse than Steely Dan getting it over Eminem?  How will Clive Davis pay for his hookers and blow?
 
 I'm glad Kanye West got shut out of the major categories.  Now, maybe everyone will realize he's really overrated, not very creative and not very good.
 
 Plus, do the Foo Fighters write songs anymore or do they just chug out some guitar riff and have Dave Grohl scream "BLAH ARGH ARGH BLASH PRETENDER ROCK ROCK BLAH!" into a microphone?
 
 Plus, Jesus.  Don't get me started on the tribute to that small, overlooked indie band from Liverpool.  How can hundreds of innocents lose their lives every day and these two are allowed to walk around with no one taking a shot at them?:

Why would you argue that the Grammy's would prove to everyone that Kanye is overrated when you've just arfues that the Grammy's are irrelevant?
 
 Steely Dan are talented musicians, Eminem is a talentless white trash fat fuck. Steely Dan deserves to beat Eminem.
 
 And I haven't heard Hancock's album so can't really compare to Kanye or Amy's albums. Certainly Hancock will have a more lasting legacy, based on what each of those artists have put out to this point (Granted, it's unfair to make that comparison.)

If you don't respect Herbie Hancock I don't know what to tell you.  The Grammys are an award for music.  Its not a pop culture coronation like the VMAs.  The award was album of the year, not popular music of the year.   From brilliant work with Miles to Headhunters to Rock It to now, the guy is a legend, total class, and the consummate musician.

I was at the Tibet Freedom Concert and during Herbie Hancock's Headhunters set some girl got struck by lightning about fifty feet from where I was standing.
 
 Even God hates Herbie Hancock and his pointless, twiddling, jazz bullshit.  He's like a black Harry Connick, Jr.

They should give Amy Winehouse an extra award just for her acceptance speech.

Here's a question.   Who had the worst/most obvious plastic surgery?  Tina Turner looked great for being 265 but her face was little off.  A lot of the oldies looked like muppets.  They all had the Barry Manilow look.

I hear some sound bites from the Grammys Last Night. The Foo Fighters performance shows why some acts that sound great on an album or studio don't always sound that great live. In addition, I felt having a live orchestra did nothing to make the song more special. I heard it for the 1st time, and I was not impressed. I did hear Clint Black take jabs at Kanye West. That was funny, and I'm no country fan.
