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!

[torchthemummy]

pretty sure someone will beat me to the punch but they didn't show what aviril's shirt said.

[weegee]

The MAN IN DRESS! is reference to Harvey Firestein in case you are on the left coast (or not watching).

[FoxGirl]

Is anybody more flamingly boring than Robin Williams?

No. But has any one seen the One Hour Photo movie? Good? Bad? You can write me privately since this isn't a movie thread.

[dead]

I'm I allowed to not the Anvil Legree (or whatever her name is) is really hot?

I can't go to jail for that can I?

[jhofmann]

Looks like white pygmies have taken over the stage. Where's Motorhead these days?

[AF68]

"Best concern hands down for me was years ago,,Willie Nelson,,he is fabulous in concert."

Stoned or straight? When I saw him he was so stoned that he couldn't remember the lyrics of some songs. It was pitiful.

[smith288]

oh....didnt think of that.

[CaptRon]

Just what we need, advice from an 18 yr old "star".

[ewing]

[areafiftyone]

LOL - I total agree

[Cosmo]

Thing is, Perahia's etudes will never stack up against Pollini's. But god, his Goldberg variations from a couple of years back were really as good as I've heard. I prefer Gould in many ways, but this recording is just as good. (if you don't already own it -- get it!) I'm surprised it didn't win a grammy, to tell the truth.

Feel the gin

[mccann]

Thanks.

My boyfriend is in the Air Force and deployed to the ME.

Hmmm, hope these ladies don't distract him! Posted for the ladies (and men) in case they missed it last night:

Ladies' night over Afghanistan

[wimpycat]

Oh! I don't expect much anti-war activism on display at the Grammys anyway. Musicians are quite a diverse lot. I mean, some of them are activist types, but a lot of your hard rock musicians aren't political (in public) at all, and a lot of your country artists are very patriotic.


It's the actors who are the real pains in the ass.

[Slyfox]

What was with the Trent Lott comments?

Sounds like ax-grinding to me.

[SwatTeam]

I saw George Strait when "Amerilla by Morning" was a hit and I fell in love.

[cajungirl]

I think he was straight,,can't remember if I was,,,never mind.

[Shaka]

Yep...she just flashed something that the network did not show...must be anti-american. Amazing. They come here take our money and criticize our country. hate em'.

[kemathen7]

Ahhh - Harvey. I'm trying not to watch (studying), but I got sucked in. I have no will-power.

I'm not quite left-coast (I'm in Colorado, Tancredo country).
