11:32pm Ok, as we sign off a final total! 18 performances......many excellent. some terrible. 9 awards given out with Adele taking 4 of them! 14 Whitney references.13 commerical breaks for a toal of 66 minutes! a very disapointing 9 beers......i will make that up to you next year! And without a doubt.....one legitamate star recognized with Adele. More feedback than ever............so I need to figure out how to streamline it next year. Before I go....the news is showing the makeshift memorial......and I have to laugh out loud. Craig sent me an email earlier saying he was just blocks away and saw the memorial and it was a poor showing as it had like 9 candles....and they just showed it......he is not kidding. Too funny!!!!!!! I hope you all had some fun. Hope everyone got introduced to an artist or two they may not have known. Have a great evening everyone, and thansk for joining! As always, until next time, stay safe, later, dan
11:30pm RyanH asks if that is Sir Paul or did they break Phil Specer out of prison.......did you see Sir Pauls sweat stains!
11:28pm Now this is a finish......look at this lineup on stage......and this is why the grammys can be special........you cannot get this anywhere else. Poor Bruce.......one of the best performers of all time....one of the best songwriters of all time, but he simply cannot play guitar with these guys.
11:26pm JennO points out that 11:14pm I asked "where to hold it" and she cannot believe nobody else commented on that. Which is true, because if somone else would have said it you know I would have commented. Jenn, dont hold it against me......just hold it. If you held it against me, I might get it on me. And yes my friends....the line is behind me. Paul doing much better now by the way!
11:23pm Sir Paul is back to hopefully make up for the earlier disaster.....and it looks like for the 2nd year in a row the Grammys will finish early! Lets see how this wraps up shall we! By the way Paul look worse than Whitney Houston.....and she's been on crack for 20 years and dead for 24 hours.
11:22pm Annie points out that Adele just rocks....she wore the same outfit all night.....she doesnt need to dress it up at all.........and that just sums it up. She really is awesome..........its impossible not to like her.
11:21pm Adele..............so the question is......does she follow this up or go away? She has the voice....the question is can she write another album like this.
11:20pm Album of the Year........Adele should win...would love Foo Fighters.
11:18pm Shameless plug time...........look for 3 new features on the web site in March....new Chronicles, new miserable failed attempt......and hopefully a new Chronic pains. Also, Tuesday if you get the Daily News you know where to look.
11:14pm Next year we may have to have a small grammy viewing party and blog from there.....hmmm....who to invite...where to hold it. Good thing its a leap year so I will have an extra day to plan!
11:12pm Record of the year.....Adele I would assume.......right? Yep, no surprise!
11:09pm I think the catholic church may have something to say about this tomorrow.................as a catholic i have no issues with it. As a music fan i a say....what the fuck?
11:04pm Lynn in Wisconsin asks if someone can explain that last performance to the older uncoltured folks in middle america! Mike and Angel state "Foo Fighters just ruined the RAVE".........did you see Grohl grooving? It was soooooo wrong.. Now its time to get freaky with Nikki Minaj!
11:00pm As we wrap up the 3rd hour of Grammys lets get an update on stats......7 awards given out. 16 performances......i would ahve said 16 sweet performances, but Mccartney sucked. 11 commercial breaks for 55 minutes....yep, just about a 3rd of the show. 13 Whitney references. And 8 beers........picking up the pace.......now i will hit my groove and be up till 2am....ugh.
10:55pm Was Etta Jams not on the death real? Megan says she was not, and I do not recall seeing her either......hmmmm............Annie says me and Tom should be DJing. I say we are....doesnt Dangermouse look just like Tom? Same goofy ears and all!
10:51pm Tribute to dance music..............its Chris Brown...is he more than 200 feet away from Rihanna? Do we need to get the police? David Guetta.........tearing it up. Its about time DJ's got the props they deserve!
10:49pm Out in Arizona they are just up to Sir Pauls performance and RobH says, he just got the beer he ordered from Jacs last Satuday....and he needs it more than ever after Pauls valentine song. Of course at the same time we see it is also in a commercial now.............please make it stop.
10:44pm Right now Stevie Wonder is back stage saying "I knew yall was fucking wit me! I knew whitney wasnt dead! I hear da ho out there singing right now!"
10:40pm Death real...love it! When did Ashford die? Heavy D......i just poured some out for ya my brother. Jen points out a bad year for Jazz pianists! The Big Man! And Whitney does make it into the death real...........LOVE the death real!
10:39pm Tom wants to know why Steven Keaton is talking about the recording industry.
10:35pm Bon Iver is a nervous mess.....poort bastard. Now go trim your beard. Charlie asks how do you bring Stevie Wonder to the grammsy and not let him perfrom.......i agree! Tom says "you may not see me until summer, but I can see you from my terrace fatso"...............Wrote that all by yourself Tom? Oh lord the president of the academy.....same speach every single year....yes music in schools....arts in schools...yes, yes...i get it.......move along now.
10:33pm Best new artist...Nikki Minaj a trois? No, Bon Iver
10:31pm Its DAD! Someone tell Carrie Underwood....the guy you introduced, the guy you are singing with........his last name is BENNETT...not BENENT you twit!
10:28pm While at this commercial break, we will have to get more staff next year. Texts, instant messages, and emails are coming in pretty consistantly. And of course I am moving slowly......damn you fabulous red wine..........I will validate stats tomorrow, but over 130 devices following us online right now.
10:26pm RobH reminds me that he and H met Glenn Campbell at a Diomonbacks game years ago and that Cammbell stood on a planter to be H's height for a photo......classic stuff. Chuck writes, this is just a reminder of how much his music sucked. Jen and Matt attributed these quotes to Glenn Cambell respectively "When do i sing Rhinestone cowboy"........."who is this asshole singing my song at the grammsy"
10:22pm RobH wants to know how Tomm got to watch TV? I know, shocking isnt it? Tom was out twice in the month of January. We won't see him again until summer!
10:21pm Cambell still sounds pretty good..........and how can you NOT sing along with this song! Good stuff.
10:18pm Jen says, that the good news about Glenn Camble is that he will now be able to just record the same album over and over again (and you guys think its just me).
10:17pm Is Taylor Swift playing Cleopatra somwhere?
10:16pm Can anyone tell me when Survivor returns?
10:13pm The Argentieri's point out I had the seinfeld line wrong.......it should have been...they are real, and they are SPECTACULAR! Tom Hags says that if LL's job was to keep the night moving, then he should have moved Chris Brown out the back door!
10:05pm Adele..........just amazing!
10:03pm As we are in this commercial break, lets check our totals. 6 awards given out! 11 performances counting that mcartney disaster. 7 commercials for 30 minutes. 10 Whitney references.Only 4 beers (so sad i promise to pick this up in hour 3). And according to Kenny, one crossing of the line with my 9:51 post.
10:00pm They just said Paul is coming back to do some Beatles classics? Do you think this was already planned or he realizes how much his new song sucked and is reading all the feedback on Twitter/Facebook, and of course here.
9:58pm Miranda Lambert looks like she has been hanging out with the Zack Brown Band too much.....a little bit of chicken fried.....more than a little bit.
9:53 Katy Perry is crazy....and dirty.........and crazy....and dirty........and as they say on Seinfeld....they are real and they are magnificent!
9:51pm Adele wins again for rolling in the deep. She has lost some wait. You no longer have to roll her in flower to find the wet spot.
9:47pm Edith says it looks like Taylor sews her own clothes too.
9:41pm You do not have to be a Taylor Swift fan......and granted she does not have big vocal range......however, she writes her own stuff......she writes well.......she plays her own instuments. she does it all live. Its pretty impressive.
9:40pm I cannot decide if I like the Civil Wars or if they are the Will Ferrell SNL skit!
9:38pm Chris Brown thanks god.....sorry Chris, God wasnt available to take your call, he is too busy preparing Whitneys room.
9:37pm Best R&B album.........seriously, El Debarge? They are still around? Chris Brown wins...........being that he went up against basically nobody, how could he not?
9:36pm You know why they gave him a standing ovation? Because if freaking ended!
9:35pm Paul McCartney or Deputey Droop along? Whats with those eyes and cheeks?
9:34pm Joey May makes a good point....how can it be a new standard? Oh, and for the record, this song sucks. Actually I just insulted other songs that suck by putting this song in their level. Songs that suck, laugh at this song.
9:32pm It is Sir Paul McCartney............oh lord help us......he is introducing a new song? last time he did this I was scarred for years!
9:30pm Death of a music legend........really? Seriously? She was a great talent, but a pretty wasted one......PUN intended. Did Stevie Wonder get dressed in the dark.....ummm...nevermind!
9:24pm MB points out that GaGa didnt know the words to Good Vibrations..........however, in related news, GaGa is an expert on Good Vibrators.
9:21pm Nora wants to know why Brandon Walsh is impersonating Ryan Seacrest.....or is Ryan Seacrest impersonating Brandon Walsh? Maroon 5 and Foster the People get props for pulling that off...that is not easy. Ok, if the Beach Boys can take the stage........i am confident that Whitney can make a comeback. By the way, Whitney stole Amy Whinehouses thunder!
9:15pm We have a Sony reference. (SAD).............David Grohl still screaming as Seacrest is being introduced.......LOVE it!
9:13pm Mumford and Sons perfromed the Cave on last years Grammys....how can it be up for an award this year? The Grammys just are embarrasing with this stuff! Foo Fighters win! Glad they dressed for the occasion. Did one of the Foo Fighters just moonwalk?
9:12pm Its Abby.......i like Abby................CRUUUUUUZZZZZZZZ.
9:10pm What the hell was that Chipotle commercial? Between that and the chance to win a Colonoscopy with Ozzy this is one of the strangest things ever!
9:07pm As we go to yet another commercial break (just as suprising as Whitneys death).........Kenny says my Whitney reference count is way off and that I should not have gone with the LL opening as 1. At the same time someone asked what happened to the drinking game. Well, 2 things. First, I got home after 6am. Second, I was going to go with everyone driking every time Whitneys name is mentioned......and if I did that, as Kenny points out......people would end up like her. I have updated my Whitney count to 8.
9:03pm Rihanna cannot hit those high notes for that song with Chris Martin. Whitney Houston used to be able to. She can't anymore. You know why? Cause she's dead.
8:59pm Edith says Rihanna is dancing like Elaine from Seinfeld....i say its worse, its like my sister Elaine.
8:57pm Joey Mayo says at 9pm he is changing channels to watch the walking dead in hopes of a Whitney singing zombie cameo!
8:56pm As we return from commercial time for our first talley of the evening. In the first 56 minutes this award show has given out 2 awards. However, there have been 6 performances, and 3 whitney references. I am only 3 beers in.....sad.......and we have had 4 commercial breaks totalling 20 minutes....now back to the show and Rihanna (DIRTY TOO) and Coldplay!
8:50pm Foo Fighters just rock.....and Grohl is a rock star man. Although it might be time for a change in hair style.........and I am an expert on hair styles.
8:46pm Why is Jack Black famous? Foo Fighters.....woo hoo!
8:40pm Ok, while these 2 idiots sing too each other we had a run of comments...........Joey Mayo "oh my god some girl ate Kelly Clarkson" Kenny " you need clevage to pull off that dress".......JennO....."I wish you had a "like" button on the diary. Craig Gerraghty who is in LA......the buzz out there is that DRUGS may have been involved............yep,, LA, the reason why OJ walks free. ChrissyD points out that Bruno Mars threw a tantrum when he lost......thats because he is a bitch.
8:38pm JayZ and Kanye couldnt be there....really? prison? Someone tell Reba McIntyre that the idea of plastic surgery is NOT to make you look plastic.
8:35 Fergie is dirty......and I LOVE IT! Best rap performance..........Nicki is gonna win this but should not.......wiz khalifa should
8:31pm Finally made it into my 2nd beer.....might be the fact I got home somewherre after 6am........and Mike and Angel forced me to drink insane amounts of Jordan last night. I wouldnt mind so much but I had to eat the type of meals you only get in 5 star restaurants.....prepared by Angel and Matt who prepared steaks that made the Flintstones food look small! And by the way......did I see a commercial about a colonoscopy?
8:30pm Pat Collins wants to know where the hell was Kevin Costner when Whitney needed him!
8:27pm Chris Brown........one of the few people with moves like me! Jen wants to know if this is the Wizard of oz....with the flying monkeys.
8:25pm our first grammy of the night best pop performance...............what a group. Is that Katy Perry or Marge Simpson.......and here comes Adele's first of many!
8:22pm Jen points out in my world this song goes 3 words too long......that I just want a sundae..........umm...yeah.
8:17pm Pat Collins wants to know when Bobby Brown gets his lifetime achievement award for killing careers.....his and whitneys. Lynn Riley asks if that is Bruno Mars or Elvis.......after all, elvis isnt dead..........just ask Whitney...oh wait.
8:15pm Someone points out that LL just basically spit all over the front row during his Adele introduction. My brother Charlie says, what the hell is Harry talking about.....bruno mars sucks. I wouldnt say he sucks, but he isnt Bruce. Alright, our first commercial break...time to Whitney this beer............thats right....whitney will mean kill tonight!
8:10pm Joey Mayo asks if LL should have asked the heavinly father why he let whitney get addicted to crack........ummm...lightning. Craig Gerraghty wants to know why Dione Warwick didnt see this death coming? LL just reminded us this night was about music. I thought it was about making inappropriate comments about musicians.......well in my world it is! Here comes Bruno Mars! Harry you can go to bed by 8:15pm....your Grammys are OVER!!!!!
8:05pm LL is in da house........going back to Cali baby! Bruce and LL, the cool factor is way up there already. We have our first Whitney reference.......MB from Chicago asks "what is on Lady Gagas head........oh wait its Lady Gaga!".............First beer is going slow.......gonna have to pick it up!
8:02pm Bruucceeee........Harry is on the edge of his seat! Bruce opens by asking "America are you alive out there"......you know who didnt answer! Whtitney Houston.....or Clarence Clemens for that matter. Love Bruce.....gotta lose the earings though. Although I am told they could have been belts for Whitney towards the end.
7:55pm If you watched the 60 minutes segment on Adele you have to like her even more.........incredible talent and just appears real. Alright, the first beer is poured. Get ready for the Boss!
7:52pm You may think the loss of Whitney will have an impact on tonights awards. To me, it is not having Andy Rooney and his eyebrows leading me into the show..........on the bright saide, there is now another crack whore in the afterlife for Andy to mix it up with.
7:40pm We have early input, including a few people who stated they were waiting for my inappopriate Whitney Comment all day.....Happy to deliver folks! Kenny informs me the Vegas Over/Under on Whitney references tonight is set at 75....we will try to track that for you. Joey Mayo says he cannot wait for Whitneys new feature film "The Body Bag"......I am sure it will be a Sony release.
7:15pm We are live and online for the 54th Annual Grammy Awards! The Keg lines have been cleaned! A pizza has been ordered! We are just about ready to go. I have no new word of additions to tonight's lineup, but I can tell you who will not be performing. Houston, we have a problem......you are dead! I will be back as we get closer to show time!!!
"My karma tells me, You've been
screwed again! If you let them do it to ya, you've got yourself
to blame! It's you who feels the pain! It's you who takes
the shame!" |
