Grammy's 2006

Well, what a dilemma last night of TV viewing. The IU game, American Idol and the Grammy's. Now last year I was on the road going home ,so I missed the grammy's and I heard it was the best ever. Awesome line up of stars and music. The Grammy's are usually entertaining and I love all kinds of music.
So it was pretty cool to see Paul McCartney, and if I do say so myself the old guy can still rock and roll.I enjoyed a lot of the hip-hop music, although I really don't know their names, but I do recognize their songs.How about Kelly Clarkson? But I was also looking forward to my man Sly of Sly and the Family Stone. First I was annoyed all night with the microphone dysfunction. For God sake this is the Grammy's .....If you people don't get it right, how do you expect every other little po-dunk telecast to get their sound right. I hope heads rolled, or that the headliner performers made a big fat stink because the sound stunk! And what was with Sly? Sly does not have a mohawk! What was that? I think Sly Stone must be in the Brian Wilson state of mind. You know like for all those years Brian Wilson stood at the organ and really didn't sing or play with the Beach Boys, cause for whatever reason he was stunad. That troll looking man could have been anyone. He wasn't too brain damaged because he realized he sucked and left the stage. In my opinion he had less brain damage than the idiots that put him on stage to begin with.They could have done tribute to the man, given him his little trophy and just let him smile.I am sure he would have felt more at home with an afro than that troll looking mohawk he had on.
And then what a letdown of a finale. After the last award, This guy gets on and tells us all to go to New Orleans and support the musicians there on our holidays. Where the hell are people staying when they get there in tents? They have this ecclectic group of performers sing the blues.....and again the microphones don't work. EEEEEE! Goodnight folks, better luck next year.

I watched some of it too. I like your review of the Grammy's. I know it was a crazy night for TV with all those good programs on...and I'm a big Veronica Mars fan. Imagine that being thrown in the mix?! I survived and got to see everything I needed to see. Hope to see you soon...it seems like it has been a long time!
