Quote:"Grammy asshole weekend in LA. Yuck... The Grammys = the old guard / old media propping up their puppets trying to convince the outside world (and each other) they're relevant."

-- Trent Reznor, apparently not a big fan of the Grammys. (via @trent_reznor)

Crudely said yes, but I think it has some merit.

They all say that

Until they suddenly get recognized for something

Green Day probably said that some years ago.

Quote:NIN has been nominated for twelve Grammy Awards and won twice for the songs "Wish" and "Happiness in Slavery", in 1992 and 1995 respectively.

I'm not trying to start a riff, but rather what I think is an interesting discussion. Maybe it needs its own thread. My question is this -

Are the Grammys still relevant?

No problem, wasn't taking it that way.

Any awards show is just those that are involved patting each other on the back. It is very relevant to those in the industry and as much as I hate the tv ratings system, that's what they go by and the numbers look very good for the show.


The 52nd Grammy Awards soared 32% from last year to a 9.8 adults 18-49 rating (from 8-11:30pm), and lead CBS to a big win on Sunday night. It was the Grammys best performance since 2004 in adults 18-34 (9.1 rating), 18-49, 25-54 (10.6 rating), households (14.3 rating) and viewers (25.8 million).
