Running commentary anybody?
 
 I thought the Police were better than expected, but still kind of boring...

I thought the Police were pretty excellent.  I'm almost willing to give Sting a pass for being such a twat for the past 15 years.
 
 Right after that Jamie Foxx came out and absolutely sucked the life out of the show.  Everything else has been a trainwreck.  Dixie Chicks, Black Eyed Peas, Mary J. Blige, Justin, etc...

Police were good.  Thank God they didn't do one of those medley things and just rocked out on a great song.  After seeing the upcoming talent as they were going to a commercial, I've decided to go to bed.

Booker T. and the MG's Lifetime Achievement Award was presented by the Black-Eyed Peas. Worst Grammy indignity in years.

Is the Rascal Flatts singer the fat guy who screams like a girl in those credit card commercials?

Holy shit! Ornette Coleman is on to accept his lifetime achievement award and as a presenter. That's the first time I've ever heard him talk, even after seeing him live.

With that suit he looked more like Ornate Coleman.

This "Grammy Idol" contest is a fix. She's already signed and probably has a record deal. What a sham!

62% of favorites picked and out of the last 8 years, record 78% of actual winners picked.
