Couldn't someone have told Jennifer she forgot to untuck the dinner napkin from her dress. :whistle:

C'mon girl, you're representing Chicago, we have some class.

Damn guys, on the west coast (unless you're lucky and can see it live) it isn't airing just yet. Just want to know, what is Paul singing tonight? What is he wearing?!?

Just found that it is currently on the web at Grammys.com at http://www.grammy.com/GRAMMY_Awards/GRAMMY_Live.aspx

Damn, it's just the pre-telecast. Have to wait a couple more hours to see the show on the west coast.

I guess I better not read this thread. I didn't realize that you guys were already seeing the show. I'm on the west coast and still watching the red carpet arrivals.

You might want to add "spoiler" to any posts, in case there are others who don't want to know winners or other surprises in advance! ;)




Why?

Just type in the word *SPOILER* at the top of your post, then scroll down a couple of inches before you add in your post.

Like this . . .

Stevie Wonder and the Jonas Brothers just performed 'Superstitious'. Is this a sign of the Apocalypse or am I just too jaded? In other non-related rock news, Blink-182 announced they were reforming and three people cheered. Why did they make the guy with the broken arm open the envelope and announce that Coldplay won yet another Grammy? :ponder:
I'm with you on Stevie Wonder and the Jonas Brothers singing *Superstitious*. They should have left Stevie sing it by himself.

I love Taylor Swift. She has written most of her songs and even appeals to the older crowd. Hope she stays as sweet as she is today.

We Want Paul!!

Ok I'm seeing the broadcast from Denver and Coldplay was just on in their St. Pepper uniforms. Everyone keeps acknowledging Paul and he is right in front.

I guess it's to be expected but the crowd really went wild with the act before Paul (M I A or something like that my girls tell me) and then Paul plays a classic like "I Saw Her Standing There" and it was all they could do to stand up afterwards and applaud for like 15 seconds... :no: :duh:

EDIT: Jennifer Hudson looked a lot better when she came back out to sing without that dinner napkin on her dress.

Maybe people who organize the Grammy Awards asked him to play something old and he did. In general, people who work with music don't understand music and grammy awards, mtv music awards etc are examples of mediocrity and marketing, in my opinion.

The good thing besides Paul was the song played for the McDonalds commercial. :wub:

The funny thing is when they sing "pensando nela" that means thinking of her, people understand "salmonella" :giggle:

I hate McDonalds but I love the band...

Back in topic, for some reason I think Paul is looking cute these days... :wub:

People say making love is good for the skin :)

Apply those expectations in 1964.

The crowd goes wild for the Beatles and are merely respectful to someone singing a 45yo song.

Some would say that's as it should be. Especially since Paul released one of the best albums of his career last year.

OK! I thought so this is the official Red Nose Day t-shirt from Comic Relief -- designed by Stella, taken from a photo by Linda, now worn by Paul.

I'm getting one -- look in The Beatles section for more info...
