F7sound - Posted February 8, 2004 Share Posted February 8, 2004 Long ago, I used to look forward to the Grammys. Nowadays I can't help but think of it as a lame pat on the back - celebrating lots of sales of music that's been shoved down our throats. Could be that it's Sunday am, and my coffee hasn't kicked in.

doc taz Posted February 8, 2004 Share Posted February 8, 2004 Looking forward to the Beatles tribute, as well as Evanescence getting at least one Grammy. From what I've gathered about Amy Lee, I'd sure love to see her get one. She doesn't seem to be the prima donna type. Oh yeah, how about another Grammy for Jimmy Stuur? sevenstring.org profile my flickr page Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raymar Posted February 8, 2004 Share Posted February 8, 2004 I remember McCartney running up from the back of the room in '70 or '71 to get the Beatles' grammy for Let It Be. It was the first time I ever saw a guy in a suit with white sneakers(with two black slanted stripes on the sides). Haven't cared much for the Grammys since. I would like to see the "pre-Tel" grammys for the instrumental types sometime though. You shouldn't chase after the past or pin your hopes on the future.

tnb Posted February 8, 2004 Share Posted February 8, 2004 I can't remember the last time I watched the Grammys. I think I was in high school (class of '81). Obviously, I could care less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedro Posted February 8, 2004 Share Posted February 8, 2004 I never watch the Grammys anymore. However, I am always surprised the next morning when someone like Steely Dan beats out Eminem. If I watched, that wouldn't happen. I bring too much negative karma to tlevision awards shows. Everybody knows rock attained perfection in 1974. It's a scientific fact. - Homer Simpson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

videoeditor1 Posted February 8, 2004 Share Posted February 8, 2004 There are two acts up for awards that I am/was peripherally associated with. I hope they win. Outside of that, the Grammies are tonight? What channel does it come on? Is it pay per boob, view? NYC Drew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sylver Posted February 8, 2004 Share Posted February 8, 2004 I have been snubbed for a Grammy for the last time! I refuse to watch it anymore until they finally nominate me for SOMETHING. I really don't know what to put here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doc taz Posted February 9, 2004 Share Posted February 9, 2004 Evanescence did get the New Artist award. I would've chosen different guys to play "Saw Her Standing There". The drummer seemed to miss a beat or two. Interesting take on the solo by Vince Gill, though. He's one of the better songwriters and players in modern country music IMO. The funky portion was way awesome! Damn! to get P-Funk, and that slide player dude from new Jersey, and the others... The big downer was the sound, though. It did improve after about an hour and a half, but still, considering the tape delay, the entire broadcast should've been virtually flawless. This was never a problem when the Grammys were in New York City, in the Radio City theater. sevenstring.org profile my flickr page Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
