BB King was just asked about political comments during the war and he said "I think that there are going to be alot of things said tonight that I don't agree with."

Way to go B.B!

[Mo1]

Who is this chick and why is her drummer wearing a bra ?

And Why do I feel old?

[StarFan]

I think Hoffman is half in the bag!

[mccann]

Hello everyone. I am a newbie here. Watching the grammys too.

[Semper911]

Hey, be on the lookout for a C/W band called Bering Strait. I saw a piece about them on 60 minutes. I thought they were great. Hard workers and very talented, from Russia. Anyone know what they are nominated for?

[RummyChick]

the great thing about sheryl is that she just keeps generating fodder for us...the Peace Diamond comment is going to come back to hit her hard ..or at least I hope so

[rhodyrep]

NO DOUBT about it, this REALLLLLLLLY SUCKS! Gwen Stefani sounds like she's trying to pass a kidney stone.

[Hazzardgate]

Hello and welcome to FR!

[blarneystone]

>>>That Chic needs implants!!! <<

Normally I wouldn't take notice of such things but MY that is the flattest chest ever!!

[MotleyGirl70]

I agree about Norah Jones and I hope she won't burst my bubble and say anything inappropriate. Keeping fingers crossed she'll win.

I don't think she will. She seems to have enough class not to do so, unlike Sheryl Crow. I really hope she wins too.

Dustin Hoffman is acting a bit too pompous! He is waiting for a performer to make the first anti-war statement. I think he is leery because they are in NYC. Remember last time they did that they got booed. You never know how the audience is going to react. If the first jerk gets away with it then that it the go ahead!

[Dan from Michigan]

Time to "put her picture away" as the song says.

[areafiftyone]

HEY WELCOME TO FREE REPUBLIC!!!

[xp38]

hehe...as always the FR thread is far more entertaining than the actual show.

[catherine of alexandria]

I saw them too. I don't know what they're nominated for. They are good.

[MotleyGirl70]

Did you know Nora Jones' dad is Ravi Shankar ??

Who is Ravi Shankar?

[Hillary's Lovely Legs]

She said she was wearing a Peace bracelet- she said "nothing says peace like diamonds."

I guess Sheryl Crow never heard of BLOOD DIAMONDS. At least 20% of all diamonds sold are blood diamonds. How many children died for her lovely bracelet?

Dustin Hoffman's doing his Rain Man routine.

Yeah, but in that flick he played an idiot savant...these days he just does half the role.

[mccann]

Thank you, hazzardgate. Been reading posts here for about a year now.

[Timeout]

Aren't THEY the audience? Are there "regular" folks in the audience?

[Clara Lou]

He played the sitar in the 70s.
