11:37 - Might be the most disapointing endings of all grammy's...wow....ugh...sorry the grammys is meant to have people on their feet at the end....well, your final counts for the night...this 3.5 hour show produced 13 commercials for a total of 69 minutes.....23 performances...but nothing spectacular...nothing anyone will be talking about tomorrow......I'm on beer 15 (counting some pre-game).....only 9 awards were givin out....and although a 3rd thanking of god took place, i had a 4th pee! Most impressive thing of the night is that CBS didn't screw up the broadcast at any point! I hope you had fun...hope you found a new song, record, artist....get the Beck album....music is univeral...its a release...enjoy it and encourage it! As always, until next time, stay safe, later, dan!
11:24 - just walking back from getting anothre beer and I kicked the treadmill.....OUCH...to which jen replied "there is some irony in that"....DOUBLE OUCH!
11:18 - so in that speach replace the word vibrant with profitable....and death real!
11:10 - Any chance there is one guy sitting in his apartment in london who is repsonbile for both Sam Smith and Adele's success?
11:08 - wow....sorry....its not the record of the year...record of the year is about the recording...the entire thing.....there is very little to this record...its great..the vocals are great....and the music is fine..but come on.....and Smith just said what i wrote 3 hours ago.
11:07 - Why are you standing...he has no idea! So far we have not had that great grammy moment tonight.
11:05 - Kristen asks if that was Kristin Wiig performing with Cia...to which I say i think it was Will Ferrill!
10:56 - alright, we will give our final tally at the end of the show..but approaching the top of the hour here we go....nearly 3 hours in and we have had 54 minutes of commericals...geeze....13 beers......20 performances (i counted cia)....8 awards.....and the pee has jumped to 3 with just 2 thanks of god!
10:53 - Okay, i admit i watched the entire thing with Cia...but not sure that is a grammy performance....that cut should win record of the year though....however, song will go to sam smith.
10:44 - okay, gotta run up to my suitcase and remove the glittery tangerien jumpsuite...it would just be awkward after that.
10:41 - okay, that was pretty funny by Kanye....I mean I was going to type the joke and he ran up and did it. The Beck record is really good.
10:39 - Prince hit my closet.....and remember what i said about this one!
10:38 - Joey "Shit, I hit the SAP button, now the grammys are in spanish"....my new favorite of the night.
10:35 - What was she trying to say? Such a pretty girl......and someone tell this guy that Ricky Martin did this in the 90's. Is it throwback night?
10:34 - Okay, raise your hand if you are on beer 13 for the night and you have a 7:30am international flight....anyone? anyone?
10:32 - Sam Smith is a nervous wreck.....thought it was because he was performing in front of this audience...but then i realized it was because a girl was going to join him. Mary J can still bring it!
10:27 - Everyone asking why Paul's mic was not on.......and whoever thought there would be a performance where Paul McCartney would be considered the background other guy.
10:26 - Jamie points out that Paul & Rihanna apparantly switched jackets......atta boy Paul!
10:24 - So what was Paul doing there?
10:22 Where to start...where to start......first, yokum and clarke couldnt play a friday in Donovans....now.....as far as this goes...i've had my Kanye fill. Love Rihanna.....and can someone explain to me how Paul got here?
10:15 - Someone tell this guy that George Michael did this look 20 years ago.....so I fully expect this guy to be arrested in a mens room shortly.
10:12 - Flake just emailed me a picture of H with Glenn Campbell! CLASSIC
10:08 - So, while we are on another commercial break...let's analyze something. I got yelled at for going after Taylor Swift...which I really didnt do. Yet nobody says boo to me about my Glenn Cambell comments or wantitng to slap the domestic violience chick.....you are some sick bastards!
10:06 - hey look who wondered on stage...he was looking for the mens room
10:04 - Quite possibly the only musical instrument I've never said "wow I would love to play that"....the harp.....how does someone start palying the harp? I mean....you dont just see them in a garage sale and pick them up....i've been to guitar center a thousand times...enver saw one.....been in music studios...never saw one......sounds beautiful...but i just dont know how you become a harpist!
10:02 - They all had to say Hi George at the same time in hopes it may be loud enough for him to hear them.
9:58 - My annual reminder that mom dated Tony Bennet....and the more I see Lady GaGa I think my brother Jimmy dates her/him.
9:52 - Okay a recap as we approach the top of the hour.....1:52 minutes in and we have had 33 minutes of commercials. I'm on beer #11. We've had 12 performances. We have slowed down on giving out awards...just 6. And we now have a tie for lowest tally.....2....pee's and mentions of god.
9:50 - AFter the presidents speach we get this from DanO....bad news is the haggerty's just changed the channel...good news is that we are just moments away from Tracy's second facebook post!
9:48 - Now I think any man that hits a woman is a coward....and there is not a punishment enough....but even i wanted to slap her....IM KIDDING>>>IIM KIDDING...its all about that joke...about that joke, no harm just the joke
9:47 - So I guess we wont be giving out the best rap record grammy on the air tonight.
9:42 - Songs in the key of life is one of the greatest records ever....period!
9:39 - Great point by pat...since Pharrel just showed us a new version of Happy he could be up for another grammy next year for the same 4 year old song!
9:37 - Apprantly school boy shorts are the outfit for the night! Pat wants to know if The Weekend used the gel from Something About Mary for his hair...and Joey insists that Megan Trainor is a dude....crotch check please!
9:365 - if he starts playing an accordion i'm leaving!
9:33 - I still dont want to ride in her little red wagon....and what the fuck is this?
9:32 - Pat Collins "who knew Annie Lennos did duck calls"...and that is my favorite line of the night!
9:30 - Joey says that Annie looks like his Uncle Tommy.....i say dances like him too. The Argentierie's say I need to stop hating on Taylor....I like Taylor...I really do. I think Annie Lennos is enjoying the spotlight!
9:29 - Anyone have any idea how many seats are under Rihannas dress? Do seat fillers have to sit in them? Did she accidentally wash it with a pink T-shirt?
9:25 - This should be pretty cool....love this guys voice!
9:23 - Rob Haggerty says in response to Mathew Mcchonoghey commercial where he says "its not about hugging trees"......yeah man its about smoking them.

9:18 - Tom Haggerty must be watching on delay...he just pointed out that he is in fact white and LL is in fact black.
9:17 - Two people point out that Gwen is always HOT...and yes, she is...however her kids must be malnutritioned.
9:15 - okay, that was pretty cool....and Ryan Seacrest is yet again on TV
9:13 - Seriously nobody has more fun at the Grammys than Taylor Swift....and you know what...fuck it...good for her!
9:11 - You know why they are no longer ELO but are now Jeff Lynn's ELO? Because nobody else from ELO is in there....oh god...deputy droop along...Paul McCartney....just got told to sit down!
9:10 - Joey points out that Sheerin is the british John Mayer, only not as good a guitar player...and I agree...I would rather just watch Mayer play guitar and not hear either of their voices.
9:09 - Flake in Arizona reminds us the Grammys are just starting by him and he is hoping for a ton of H&R commercials hearing "Get your billions back you rat bastards"

9:00 - Another CSI...really? Next year I fully expect CSI - Woodside.

8:49 - This shoudl be great....Madonna has had what 7 years to work on something?
8:48 - That performance really didnt do anything for me......in any event, 1979 called and would like their outfit back.....and yes Nicky Minage I like to see woman on top!
8:45 - You would think a genius would be dressed better. Is he sconsed in Valour?
8:40 - Everyone all over Sam Smith with comments all saying basically how proud his boyfriend must be....or ex boyfriend.......and is it going to be Katy Perry all night?
8:39 - How can Bangerz still be up there...been out for like 2 years! Ed Sheerin should win this....but smith cleans up
8:37 - Now if you want to win me over have Jimmy Fallon come out as Barry Gibb!
8:36 - okay, lets leave the Gangsta to the rappers please.

8:32 - Brian Williams just sent me a text reflecting on his first grammy win several years ago.....right now he too is wishing he were Glenn Campbell
8:29 - multiple people sending me messages of agreement that Pharrell was the worst nominee in that category....ladies and gentleman, the grammys
8:27 - apparantly pharell was ready to step in for Angus Young!
8:26 okay, i like pharell....and his hat...remember the hat from last year...when this song was already out...it should not be nominated this year....and it should not have won...great song.....fun song....big fan of it....worst one out of the nominiees.

8:17 - Apparantly Fish Moody did Ariana Grande's eye makeup
8:11 - As we go to our first break....someone txts what a travesty it is having Ariana Grande's idiot brother sitting in the vicnity of Dave Grohl....while I ponder whose the dude that broke Sam Smiths heart to make him write that record...is it John Mayer? If so, we may need a new category...this years best song written about love affairs with John Mayer.
8:10 - Joey asks if Tony Bennet is up for best new artist.....no but the blond sitting next to him...her tits are. Sam Smith runs away with this.

8:01 - AC/DC kicking it off......I for one am okay with this!
8:00 - Might be time to replace LL as the host....We (Eternal Sounds DJ's and LL) have performed at the same event....seeing Tom Haggerty & LL stand next to each other is the ultimate black/white contrast! Here we go!
7:45 - Beyonce does not deserve to win Album of the year....and before Kanye grabs the keyboard from my hand.....calm down, because she is actually going to win it.
7:32pm - Alright, don't forget to join the phone via email (thedirtyjobs@gmail.com) or txt (917299336)...we will keep our usual running totals....and don't forget the screen will update every 90 seconds on it's own....newest entries will be on top.
7:28pm - Okay, so having a few drinks before this gets started is either a very good idea, or a very bad idea....on beer # 5. The 7:30am flight tomorrow morning is not going to be fun!
9:03am - It's Grammy Day...we wonder who will win, we wonder how CBS will mess up the broadcast, we wonder how the Grammy's will embarass themselves, and we wonder which Brown (Bobby or Chris) will get arrested. See you tonight!
