Thanks for starting this post. Would have never known it was on tonight. Shows like this were made for a DVR. I'll FF through most of it and hopefully enjoy a couple of performances.

Glad the Foo's and the Boss took home a few...but they've only done 6 fucking awards in 2.5 hours... and some of these performances are long and boring. Loved Kanye and Foo though.

I'm glad she's looking better and that look on her face when she won record of the year was just great. I really hope she gets off all that shit she's been on.

Just starting here on the west coast; Carrie Underwood's legs looked nice.
Reading the winners, i'm surprised Winehouse won, but then again I don't get the appeal and thought her song was terrible.
