Should be interesting to see if Glen Campbell will remember the lyrics.

Is the Grammys taped or is it a live show? I'm already getting Grammy winners announced on my Twitter feed.

Yeah, I know that's an often-used line of his, but maybe he should have tabled it for tonight.

Wow, twenty-something (fairly) newcomer Bruno Mars telling people like Paul McCartney to get up off their "rich asses."

Good performance though. Nice James Brown moves.

Pretty ballsy, but they stood up.

LL handled the opening really well, I thought.

It plagues a lot of live broadcasts lately. An electronic beeing sequence that repeats every 5-10 seconds. It was the worst on the Emmys. Primarily hearing it now during applause.

So I guess the guy with the brown teeth sitting next to Adele will be the topic of the songs for which she wins a Grammy in a few years?

Something has to get cut to make room for the Whitney tribute. I wonder if he's drawn the short straw?
