Kept switching to the grammys from a movie I was watching so I wouldn't miss the Dixie Chicks and Springsteen. Two things I noticed. One black girl singing (children were brought on stage during the song dressed in occupational clothing) couldn't carry a tune; what an embarassement. Second, when the memorial was done near the end of the show for those in the industry who died (last year?), the only ones who got any recognition from the audience were the twenty something dead (I believe most died from illegal activity, not natural causes). Hardly anyone recognized any of the deceased who were over thirty. I guess that says something about the grammy audience.

That was the same with tonight's applause.
