olyclimber Posted February 9, 2006 Posted February 9, 2006 who won Rap Performance by a Duo or Group featuring a chimp in a dress? Quote
marylou Posted February 9, 2006 Posted February 9, 2006 High point: Mary J. Blige singing "One" with U2. Low point: that weird Madonna thing at the beginning. Quote
Dr_Flash_Amazing Posted February 9, 2006 Posted February 9, 2006 How come there wasn't a category for "music that's worth a damn that might not be available through your local ClearChannel Cyborg Media Dissemination Outlet?" (OK, aside from like three jazz and classical things on that loooooong list.) Quote
Alasdair Posted February 9, 2006 Posted February 9, 2006 Who really gives a shit who won the Grammys. The KEXP top 100 list is a much more relevant list of music that anything on Billboards top most promoted crap we want to sell to the masses. The record industry deserves to loose the money they have the last few year. Quote
dalius Posted February 9, 2006 Posted February 9, 2006 Congrats to Del and John Prine! And Tim O'Brien! Quote
seawallrunner Posted February 9, 2006 Posted February 9, 2006 Polka Album: "Shake, Rattle and Polka!" Jimmy Sturr and His Orchestra. there's a Grammy for polka albums ?!?! Quote
underworld Posted February 9, 2006 Posted February 9, 2006 probably has more substance than a lot of the other 'pop' (read: hip hop) albums Quote
murraysovereign Posted February 11, 2006 Posted February 11, 2006 Polka Album: "Shake, Rattle and Polka!" Jimmy Sturr and His Orchestra. there's a Grammy for polka albums ?!?! Jimmy Sturr? WTF!? Walter Ostanek absolutely owns the polka category. Walter Ostanek has forgotten more about polka than Jimmy Sturr has ever learned. This reeks of a fix - someone got paid off to screw Walter, just 'cause he's a Canadian. The whole music industry is corrupt to the core. Bastards! Quote
