DUDE! The Meaty Cheesy Boys RULE! That's so cool.

So, does my multi-spot stint as the Budweiser Frog "Er" one up you?

Don't sleep on Prince, I listen to a bit of him and have seen a couple of concert videos of his: He's tight as f**k on the gat!
He also looks so nonchalent as he performs which can fool you to think he ain't playing and it's almost hard to tell he's a human player sometimes, he's so on point.
I thought people knew this already?

Peace

I struck out as predicted. I sat next to Chris Lord Algee, and around Tal Hetzberg, Tony Maserati, Dave Pensado, and several other top notch cats. I disappointed myself by not working a "Neve 1176" joke in by night's end, but oh well. Maybe next time.

Highlight of the evening for me was 50 Cent walking up on stage when Evenescence were accepting for "Best New Artist".

The sound completely sucked ass, to the point than when Celion Dion began singing a tribute to Luther Vandross, her mic wasn't up at all for a good couple lines into the song.

Yeah, I missed that too... what was the story, did he think he'd won or something?

Nah, he didn't think he had won. When homegirl from E-scence started giving her acceptance speach, 50 walked up on stage and basically just did a circle around the band and back to his seat.

A typical hip hop thing. Kinda like O.D.B. or Flava Flav a couple years back.

Well, I thought the most interesting moment in the Grammys was definately the whole Celine Dion debacle . I actually woke up! Hilarious, I wonder if anyone got fired? I actually did feel bad for them though.

I thought the "I Saw Her Standing There" performance was horrible. What a mess. I didn't think Chick Corea with Foo Fighters were that bad, but it isn't something I would recommend them doing often. The whole notion of putting different celebrities together can get weird, not just because they play different styles, but also because each of them is used to being the lead. I have respect for each of them in their own right, but together it can be chaos. All that said, I thought that Prince and Beyonce made a good team.

Also, a quick sidenote...I just did a project with Alison Krauss. I think she is a great talent, and a really nice person. I think its great how she is immersing herself in different areas. Unfortunately I missed her performance on the Grammys, as I had long before become disinterested
