I'm disappointed. The sound is absolutely HORRIBLE, and LL Cool J is doing nothing for me as a host. Yawn.
The only standout performances were Carrie, Kelly, and JT; everyone else sounded terrible. When are they going to get a decent f***ing sound system for these awards shows? Good Lord.

Carrie - Great vocals, but the dress wasn't needed. It kind of took away from the performance. Some movement would have been better. JMO.
Vocals = A+ ; Dress effects = C
I'm glad the Grammy awards are spreading out the awards this year.
IMO, there a lot of worthy nominees and winners this year - Fun., Gotye, Kelly Clarkson, Carrie Underwood, etc.
Now, it's time for the yearly Grammy speech. This looks like it will take a while. Fun. has time to go to the bathroom now.

I thought this was the first awards show in a long while to finally get the sound right and because of that the artists have all sounded really good, IMO. ???

With how slow they're going, it may pass the 11:30 mark.

OMG, who is that girl singing in this group number with the glasses? I saw her in the audience and I honestly thought she was a girl off this new reality show about Nerds. I thought maybe she won a seat in a challenge or something. OMG :lol:

The In Memoriam section is always bittersweet; sad to see so many who are now gone, but nice to spend a moment remembering what so many talented people accomplished during their lives.
I'm a sucker for the kind of multi-artist jam we just witnessed with "The Weight". I mentioned earlier in this thread I was anticipating this as it seemed like a very good job of selecting the artists and producers. I wasn't disappointed. They all came together wonderfully for a fitting tribute.
