Anybody watching the Grammys?

Me neither. Actually I watched the opening act. I think it was Beyonce singing drunken love, wearing skin tight stuff, sparkly hosiery then JZ came out and did his rap stuff. The whole thing was flashing lights, a chair that Beyonce did very athletic stuff on, hard to tell everything that was happening. Sometimes the smoke machine pumped out so much that the performers were obscured.

@glitterbag,
So, any hard core fans planning to watch the entire show? I just worry I might see, no I mean miss another fab Miley Cyrus performance. I don't know who's singing right now, but he appears to be in pain. The audience seems happy.

I think I'm going to finish reading the paper.

I quit watching it years ago. The Pro Bowl is on another channel. I quit watching it about the same time.

I only watched it to see Daft Punk win, now I’m over it.

@jcboy,
I forgot it was on. There was a golf tournament on earlier, and that usually means 60 minutes comes on late. When I tuned in there a ton of smoke and flashing lights with a women contorted around a chair. I did like her sparkly hosiery but it took me a while to figure out who she was.

I hate award shows in general. Hates a strong word, lets just say I find them dull.

@edgarblythe,
Sports Illustrated Game Cast of the Pro Bowl has the wrong team winning, unless they fixed it in the last few minutes. The usual scorekeeper must be having a holiday.

Meantime, in their live Chat, people are talking about baseball..

@tsarstepan,
I don't think I have either, and certainly not now, sans TV.

@glitterbag,
Most of it is not worth watching IMO but I knew Daft Punk was up for an award, only reason I watched it.

@jcboy,
A friend was up for a technical grammy this year. Since they're awarded before the televised show, I don't bother with the televised portion

@ehBeth,
I like Pink but I didn’t care for her performance with Nate Ruess tonight.

I guess if I want to see Macklemore I may have to wait until 11 but I’m not waiting up for it.

The camera is a harsh critic.

Madonna looked ill, does she have MS or something wrong with her gait?

And her face was pulled tight and overly made-up. Weird.

Those old guys (Nelson, etc) need to let go. They just don't have the vocal strength to perform anymore. Let the young ones sing their songs.

@PUNKEY,
Punky, what about B.B. King, should he burn Lucille and stop performing.

I think awards ceremonies are awful, I don't watch any of them. I'd much rather read the results post event. The only occasion that I enjoy seeing live is the FA Cup draw, and that only takes about five minutes.

I was restless;flipping through the channels.
The new Pro Bowl set-up was marginally better, but I dislike watching millionaire athletes going through the motions.

Saw Beyonce's choreography on the chair and was mildly amused.
She's more talented than I imagined.

Daft Punk? Gotta listen to them. Don't know their music.

Lorde? Don't get her. Amy Winehouse blew her away.

Macklemore and Thingy. No idea.

Best Pop Instrumental:Herb Alpert. Huh? Thought he'd left this earth.

Best Country Solo:Darius Rucker -- "Wagon Wheel" - Puhleeze!
He stole it from The Old Crow Medicine Show band.

Best Country Duo:The Civil Wars -- "From This Valley"
Americana music having an impact on Nashville...it's about time.
Good pick

Best Country Song and Album: Kelly Musgrave
Taylor Swift replaced by Taylor Swift Light.
Empowered young female artists still rule the roost.

Best Soundtrack:"Sound City: Real to Reel" - Wonderful Choice, Great Documentary.
