The Grammys

[James Ford]

Watching for laughs.

Second time I've seen Muse. Awful, awful, awful. How do some of you actually like that band?

Esperanza Spalding won Best New Artist!  nice!!

[James Ford]

I was pleased she won, though they seem to be doing a Shelby Lynne with her since she has three albums out, the fist of which was 2006.

True, but I think it's more about the first breakthrough album than best new artist. Speaking of Shelby Lynne, what happened to her?

I saw Muse live for the first time in 2004 and they blew me away.  I saw them 2 other times that year.  Saw them open for U2 last year and didn't think they were as good.  Only because Bellamy didn't play the piano/keyboards as much.  He's a piano genius.  That's why I liked them.  Lyrically, they're not the best.

Muse are good.  They're sort of Queen 2.0.  There records are horribly clipped but then, everybody's are.
They do a pretty sweet version of "Feeling Good."  Almost as good as George Michael's.

Mark the day.  Valentine's Day, 2011.  Brian Wallace doth proclaimed:

One day, very soon, we will look back on these idiots:


with as much embarassment as we do, say a "Creed" or a "Limp Bizkit."  They're Arrested Development with better undergraduate degrees

And DEEP DOWN INSIDE, you know it too.   Your MIND may love "The Arcade Fire" but there's no way you HEART loves "The Arcade Fire."  They insist upon themselves.

For once, I agree with you.  Although I do think it's cool that a band who doesn't get much radio play from the autotune stations won album of the year.

I'm excited and happy for Merge records...but I can't disagree. I think winning a Grammy is very much a double-edged sword.

[Chip Chanko]

"Creed" and "Limp Bizkit" were always "embarassing."

[James Ford]

Not for someone who likes Muse...

"Creed" and "Limp Bizkit" were always "embarassing."

[bearman🐻]

I wonder how badly Pitchfork will trash the next Arcade Fire record.
