That look back on Bruno Mars performing looked amazing … I wish he was performing tonight (don't know if he is or not) – love Bruno Mars!!ReplyCancel
Oooh – don't watch if you have photo-sensitive epilepsy … it's a bit of a flashing spectacleReplyCancel
Mitzy it's on CBSReplyCancel
So now that Bey has short hair … expect Kim K to get hers cut too.ReplyCancel
Beyonce sounds fantasticReplyCancel
Yo. Yo, just got off work…still settling inReplyCancel
That's an odd dance, do you think she's shaking oot a leg cramp?ReplyCancel
Yay! Steampunk's here!ReplyCancel
Hellooooo lipsynchin'ReplyCancel
That Beyoncé song sounds better the more I hear it. She's doing good.ReplyCancel
Oh … he's ruined her song!ReplyCancel
Watch her head spin for the camera red light…ReplyCancel
Beyoncé' has an awesome bum, propsReplyCancel
That was as about as authentic a cuddle as Lisa Marie and MJReplyCancel
Miranda Lambert looks lovely – gosh, she's lost a LOT of weight …ReplyCancel
Nice hug , looked real 😀ReplyCancel
Can we PLEASE get the ass-kisser off stage.ReplyCancel
But WHY that hat, Cool James??ReplyCancel
I still loathe hats, but have to admit LL Cool J does look very suave in hisReplyCancel
Love LL!ReplyCancel
He just needs to stand there and lick him lips and say nothingReplyCancel
'Mama said knock you out' used to be a good tune to do kickboxing to …ReplyCancel
They were already standing..ovation redundant…ReplyCancel
lol im slow —I'll go get Orvilla–she was lost too lolReplyCancel
It's dry in there, isn't it, boo?ReplyCancel
surfboard surfboardReplyCancel
Yay! A Bruno shout-out! Ooooh there he is – love him! <3
Oi! Keith is a NZer first and foremost!ReplyCancel
@Susan – he's insecure about his balding head …ReplyCancel
Paul McCartney's new wife looks lovelyReplyCancel
I am ready to get to it!!ReplyCancel
@Derek Harvey – here's our boy! 🙂 🙂 🙂ReplyCancel
I love Bruno too!ReplyCancel
Canadian Mountie meets StreetwiseReplyCancel
Charlie! Anna's here! Boobs out!ReplyCancel
Oh what is this…ReplyCancel
I've said it before but … wow, Pharrell is just so beautiful! Wow …ReplyCancel
Pharrell looks like a little boy wearing his dad's hat.ReplyCancel
Smokey wants his hat backReplyCancel
Cmon! She has to mention the hat!! If she doesn't, she loses all credibility!ReplyCancel
I don't think Macklemore should win this … they're not new!ReplyCancel
Hey everybody! I'm in good company 😀 😀ReplyCancel
who are some of these artists?ReplyCancel
where is Lorde? and how is Ed Sheeran new?ReplyCancel
Dang! I wanted Ed Sheeran!ReplyCancel
I LOVE Macklemore and Ryan Lewis! But – they're still not new … not new …
Tricia and Macklemore are such a gorgeous couple 🙂ReplyCancel
Best new artist = Kiss of DeathReplyCancel
* Waves to Steampunk *ReplyCancel
Ha, Kristin. Too funnyReplyCancel
I'm sorry but I love Kendrick!ReplyCancel
I know they're straight. I know they're straight. I know they're straightReplyCancel
Let's hear it for Lorde!
Woohooo! Do us proud, lady!ReplyCancel
Think Lorde is loaded on Oxycontin???ReplyCancel
Truthfully, I don't listen to this stuff, I'm just here for you guys( just like the blinds) 😀ReplyCancel
NZ! Stepforded! Represent!ReplyCancel
she scares meReplyCancel
Her voice is like smoked chocolateReplyCancel
Fun fact: Joel Little, who co-wrote this song with Lorde, has parents in the media biz … his Stepmum was editor of a weekly woman's magazine here in NZ and now writes columns, and his dad is a columnist for a Sunday paper. His dad is at the Grammies too.ReplyCancel
@NN YESReplyCancel
Why is she doing the Thriller dance?!ReplyCancel
This is the devils music I swear—If I see those shadow people tonightReplyCancel
I don't understand why she let Talbots dress her, thoughReplyCancel
These people seriously need 'how to lipsynch in a realistic manner' classes. Love how she just hit a note with her mic down by her kneesReplyCancel
H3y, I think she i s singing! Go girl! Rock this house!ReplyCancel
Ginge power, Kristin!ReplyCancel
Was that poor girl having a petite mal seizure?ReplyCancel
@TTM too right! 🙂
And we have Keith Urban there too, even though he identifies himself as an Aussie.ReplyCancel
She's actually listening to some emo music thru her headphones while performing.ReplyCancel
wheres the Illuminati tonight? lolReplyCancel
OT during whatever this is—anyone wake up with scratches on their back for no reason–eg. no sex, bed bugs etc I do and I looked it up and google said demonic possesion lol–hence my shadow people quote cause I never heard of that–pbvis dont believe that shit but does anyone wake up with weird scracthes?ReplyCancel
@ninotchka for the first time ever, and only after much protesting from the public asking WHY we can't see one of our best exports perform live. So the network parted with some ca$h to make it happen. It probably won't happen again though.ReplyCancel
@derek Ha!ReplyCancel
Makes Beyonce and her overdone overworked fog crap show off her lip sync song for what it was…ReplyCancel
like 2 huge scratches like a cat or something—should I see a doctor? cause like I said I dont have a cat or anything–and Im not being weird ghosts and shit are not what Im thinking—but random scractches anyone?ReplyCancel
@Derek Harvey – simple explanations could be that (a) you laid on your stomach and your cat laid on your back and scratched when you moved; or (b) you scratched yourself during a dream.ReplyCancel
@Derek Harvey – oh, no cat? Do you have sharp nails? If not, set up a camera in your room while you sleep to see what happens.ReplyCancel
Lena did it, Derek.ReplyCancel
@NN hahahaReplyCancel
@Orvilla – well according to "some" … *eyeroll* … you can only ever make it in the entertainment biz if you sign up to the Illuminati which would mean in theory that all these people have sold their souls … not buying it tho'!ReplyCancel
Did I just see a trailer where Lady Mary kicks ass on a plane?! Good way to get over Matthew!ReplyCancel
lol @ NN at 10 yeah maybe I scratch myself–i need those mittens for special people lolReplyCancel
Derek …I'm sorry I won't do it again. I just love scratching backs, feeling those muscles ripple…I got too …excited :-\ReplyCancel
every word? reallyReplyCancel
I like Lorde, she's different and not in a manufactured way. She's weird, that's basically what I'm trynna say. And I love her album.ReplyCancel
@ninotchka – yep; she has a new song on the charts now too. I guess people like her because she's a bit different.ReplyCancel
Look! Justie' s replacement. I bet he's filling his diaper about now…ReplyCancel
This is one talented kid.ReplyCancel
haha steampunk—be lucky you dont get the grammys ….snooze….ReplyCancel
@Derek 1) you're scratching yourself (I do that sometimes) or 2) STIGMATA
@JSierra I believe those were Dark Chocolate Bugles on her hands.
You're welcome, everyone. I'm here for you.ReplyCancel
@stepforded word!ReplyCancel
wheres the Biebs when you need him?!ReplyCancel
Is this as bad as it sounds?ReplyCancel
I'm really looking forward to Macklemore/Ryan's performance if the rumours are true.ReplyCancel
If you put Hunter Hays in a dress you'd have Julianne Hough!ReplyCancel
Blaine Larsen did the anti-bully thing years ago (look up "How do you get that lonely")
I like this kiddo's voice, though. Great range
He suxReplyCancel
@Kristen lmaoReplyCancel
I would like to have a word with whoever told this nice young man that he can singReplyCancel
Hey, Icelandic, Karen!!ReplyCancel
I hope Stay winsReplyCancel
That Pharrell song's great …
And that P!nk one …
Oh gosh, no, please NO to Douchebag …
That JT song's awesome too …ReplyCancel
Go RoboCop, Go RoboCop!
Nope, gotta be Blurred Lines!!ReplyCancel
yeah really WHERES MILEY?!?!? never thought Id ask thatReplyCancel
Yay RoboCop / Deranged Mountie!ReplyCancel
Whoop! Whoop! Whoop!ReplyCancel
I've heard 2 of those songs! * excitement, maybe*ReplyCancel
over the cutaway shots to Paula Patton! who cares?ReplyCancel
Heeellloooo Micky Ekko!! Where have you been my entire life?!
I'm glad Daft Punk won, but I would have preferred Pink/Nate. I saw Fun at ACL in October and they were incredible. I wasn't a huge fan before the show but I left there with goosebumps and obsessed with the band. Nate has a spectacular voice that is even better live.ReplyCancel
What a gracious lady P!nk is 🙂ReplyCancel
I love Daft Punk!!!ReplyCancel
Hey @NaughtyNurse! I'm seriously awake at 1 am watching this shit. I just can't look away.
p.s. I LOVE Daft Punk.ReplyCancel
Stop sucking Paul McCartney's assReplyCancel
Okay, this guyReplyCancel
Watching this with my kids. I really hope Katy Perry keeps her boobs in her dress.ReplyCancel
I swear I thought it was just meReplyCancel
@JSierra – I understand … P!nk is amazing in concert too, and left me feeling goose bumpyish after I saw her in Brisbane a few months ago – amazing, amazing performer.
Another great performer whose concerts are like a true show is Taylor Swift. Not really my cup of tea in music, but she gives an amazing performance.
I'm so sick of Katy Perry – time to make a cup of tea!ReplyCancel
Oh dear Katy…derek RUN! They're coming for you!ReplyCancel
I missed who this is; I see an egg and I am afraid for the Gaga…ReplyCancel
more devil/gothic stuff lol better trim my nails extra tonightReplyCancel
Oh wait! The one new Katy Perry song I can stand!ReplyCancel
Hmmmm…light-up boobs?!ReplyCancel
people dancing in black @derekReplyCancel
Quit with the Katy hate people. It gets even older.ReplyCancel
She's so boring! Why does she keep getting nominated? She's never gonna win anything, the grammy folk know they'd be a laughing stock if she ever got one.ReplyCancel
i like the trippy beat in this song though kinda tricky/massive attack styleReplyCancel
It's like a depressed Cirque du SoleilReplyCancel
What the hell??!? Maybe lightning can come through my window and strike me dead.ReplyCancel
i love grinding to witch broom trees…my favorite past timeReplyCancel
I think the stripper pole needs to go. It's so 2008.ReplyCancel
Did Steeve Coogan actually say that rapper has an Oscar? Bleeh.ReplyCancel
@kristen I will discuss it with Farrah Abraham –we share a camera manReplyCancel
Like the horse though.ReplyCancel
Maybe that wasn't fair, but I'm more rock orientated.ReplyCancel
No no Derek, camera person.
..and she never said that 😉
I know I miss the good old days of music—The Thong Song anyone?ReplyCancel
Karen, that rapper is Pharrel Williams, producer extraordinaire. RespectReplyCancel
Thank god for commercials. I need a break after that Katy Perry mess.ReplyCancel
I like it when the beat go.
Baby make you booty GOOoooooo…
That's my thought Susan (lipsynching), seems more about the dancing,special effects than actual talent.
Wanna see that? Give Keith Urban a guitar and a mic. He would show 'em how it's doneReplyCancel
@TTM I know my Pharrell honey and he's only been nominated 😉 He was talking about that guy with Katy P, Juice J or something.ReplyCancel
While your trimming your nails , moisturize @ derek.
You're probably scratching from the dry skin/heat
Thong tho thong thong!ReplyCancel
Yay, my pizza man just got here!ReplyCancel
I think it says a lot about an artist when the winner is announced and it's not them, then the camera pans back to them when the recipient starts their acceptance speech and that artist is looking happy and clapping for them. That was P!nk … nice lady.ReplyCancel
Lol, and then you get a Katy commercial. Sorry!ReplyCancel
Glad to hear, SusanReplyCancel
They need to up the ante on these talent shows … a cool concept would be to take people who have no talent and are severely overweight, yet strive to be famous … put them through a Biggest Loser type programme, then bootcamp with someone like P!nk to train them up, and then kick off the auditions … I think this would be a huge hit! 🙂ReplyCancel
OT, has anyone seen the cirque de soliel is a tribute to Michael Jackson? YeeeshReplyCancel
Since we're on a commercial break, I must say that I am really upset by all of this lip synching. I quite enjoyed many of the performances last year. And I told all 12 of my piano students to watch this mess. Argh. John Legend better bring it. I'm trying to stay sober tonight, but I don't know….ReplyCancel
This would be better if LL Cool J wasn't wearing a shirt.ReplyCancel
Wish I could share with you guys and whiskey!ReplyCancel
I used to love the thong song … but I changed the words to suit myself as I sang it. It had a fantastic tune and beat to it.
I hated the douche that sang it though – he ate dolphin meat for crissakes!!!!ReplyCancel
I'm lovin' this Chicago/Thicke combo!ReplyCancel
I love Chicago!ReplyCancel
Okay, major doucheness aside, I'm LOVING this McCartney / Thicke collaboration! 🙂ReplyCancel
Let's all join hands and give a prayer or thanks that whatever is going on with Robin Thicke, it does not involve either Miley Cyrus or a Beetle juice suitReplyCancel
Robin Thicke is a couple of beats off. He sucks.ReplyCancel
Thank you Robin for ruining a good song songs …band. Fuck!ReplyCancel
Saturday in the park!ReplyCancel
Okay, I do love that song…guiltyReplyCancel
Oh, um … that's not Paul McCartney at all, is it? #MyBadReplyCancel
He looks like he wants to kill Thicker. Go for it!ReplyCancel
They are all thinking, "Whose lame idea was it to have this jerkwad sing with us?!"ReplyCancel
Okay, Robin is really great tonight!ReplyCancel
Where is Pharrell in this line-up? He needs to get up on stage pronto!!ReplyCancel
bring on MileyReplyCancel
Okay, somehow my beloved Robin Thicke got even cheesier…ReplyCancel
I think Robin Thicke is a great jazzy type singer … shame about his douchenessReplyCancel
Did he need the bouncer to be his camera mark? Jerk..ReplyCancel
Kimba, I'm with you!! YUM!ReplyCancel
I could imagine lovely Keith practicing at home, and Nicole shouting "Would you stop with that racket? I'm trying to get some rest!"ReplyCancel
so much makeup on Urban. Jeez! Maybeline muchReplyCancel
Now THIS is music 😀ReplyCancel
@Jsierra OH MY GAWD!!!! hahaha LOLReplyCancel
@Kimba and @NaughtyNurse – I think Paula Patton is gorgeous. She was interviewed on E! late last year in the studio and came across so beautifully – true heart of gold that one, and very, very pretty.ReplyCancel
Keith Urban sounds just like Gordon Lightfoot. Hmmmmmm.ReplyCancel
Man oh man Urban is fine. And I'm liking Gary Clark too, great guitar player.ReplyCancel
@J fuck I miss that showReplyCancel
@JSierra – LOL! I've always found his look a bit feminine … and weirdly, with short hair, he looks even more feminine! Seems like a lovely man though.ReplyCancel
@Jsierra …maybe! you are killing me;DReplyCancel
Whomever decided on the collaborations deserves their own Grammy #FineWorkReplyCancel
Dang, this is a great Grammy show this year. I'm bummed I won't be able to watch much more. Gotta get up too early to do my nurse thing.ReplyCancel
Susan my love for you does not extend to Robin butchering some good songs.
I actually like his jazz smoke but…this over sing thing was insulting
Why do we need this annoying backstage Twitter media person? Ick!ReplyCancel
It's trouble having to listen to this bitch. Trouble trouble troubleReplyCancel
@Renoblondee – I think I just heard that our Bruno is going to be performing!!! WOOOOOHOOOOO! I loved him on Graham Norton, where he sang 'Feels Like Heaven' – all of his band danced with him and were just so brilliant …ReplyCancel
@stepforded i'm wondering the same thingReplyCancel
I agree @J this music is not my scene…Tila has gone CRAZY now though she is a nazi and all this bad stuffReplyCancel
Naughty! Don't GO :'(
Who'll tuck us in tonight?
OK…group spongebath before I turn in, Steampunk?ReplyCancel
Hey TTM… you good? Did the kiddies get up?ReplyCancel
These commercials suck.ReplyCancel
John Legend! That is all.ReplyCancel
@Kristen with Ashlee Simpson on vocals?!ReplyCancel
Gosh, so many performances – not a complaint though, this is superb!ReplyCancel
Well, my skin is too tender for loofah but a peppermint scrub would be sweet… 😉ReplyCancel
lots of talent just the songs are so slow paced etc. and its so dark in thereReplyCancel
@Derek Harvey – not a peep from Tila lately though, she's taken a self-imposed hiatus from her bloggingReplyCancel
Nice…who is this?ReplyCancel
LOL @ Kristin
I'd love a collaboration between Pharrell and Common … even though Common is incredibly racist I still like his musicReplyCancel
@Kristen—alright I will contact the make a wish foundation and make it happen—now that Bieber will be behind bars maybe Sisqo will be their frontmanReplyCancel
I wonder when David Bowie and Lorde are going to be collaborating …ReplyCancel
@Step yay! He was amazing on SNL too!ReplyCancel
Ouch! Toothache! #TooManyChocolatesReplyCancel
Woohoo! Charlie Wilson and Kevin Hart!ReplyCancel
I wish Uncle Charlie would push Kevin Hart off the stage #AnnoyingReplyCancel
I love John Legend. He is amazing. Kevin Hart is soooooo short. He make Tom Cruise look tall!ReplyCancel
Oh, lawdy. John Legend sounds GREAT!ReplyCancel
weak choices for rock song nominationReplyCancel
Fake Paul! He looks as happy as his botoxed eyes will allow him to … the real Paul would be happy.ReplyCancel
I've heard of John Legend a lot, but I don't think I've ever heard a song he sings ever.ReplyCancel
Ive never heard this songReplyCancel
I imagine Dave Grohl's studio would be very dark and full of smoke …ReplyCancel
saw john legend with sade. it was AMAZING.ReplyCancel
Sir Paul is amazing in concert. Saw him at MSG.ReplyCancel
@JSierra – that's what I wondered … Faul got real-Paul's voice during the changeover tho'ReplyCancel
I love Taylor's dress!ReplyCancel
Is Paul MacCartney wearing a Member's Only jacket???ReplyCancel
I never thought THAT was going to happen. Jesus, this wasn't bought for an appearance…ReplyCancel
For my bootcamp-style popstars show idea, I think Taylor should definitely be the other 'coach' … It would be TeamTaylor vs TeamP!nkReplyCancel
I whip my hair!!!!ReplyCancel
Omg, did they electrify the piano? That hair flinging was just sad….ReplyCancel
@writergirl +1ReplyCancel
I'm still annoyed that this is not on here.
Also not on here, the Bachelor "wedding" at the Biltmore. It's been fucking traffic around the Four Seasons all day and is being broadcast live on the East coast. Can't these hos stay in LA where they belong?ReplyCancel
Oh, no. Taylor's tossing' her hair?! I love her, but nooooooo.ReplyCancel
That is some hella hair goop, it fell right back into place!ReplyCancel
We need some energetic songs mixed into the slow ones … otherwise we're all gonna fall asleepReplyCancel
Taylor has talent but its all just downer music tonight—I am gonna get my beauty sleep and PVR my lena night nightReplyCancel
I'm still waiting on the west coast, Is Chicago there? I love them!ReplyCancel
Taylor's parents are so proud – did you see her Dad?! 🙂ReplyCancel
standing ovation? really?ReplyCancel
I'm the same age as Taylor Swift. I loved her when I first heard her 8 years ago, then I grew up and thought she was very childish and now I'm back to liking her. Or at least her songs. Just letting everyone know.ReplyCancel
Yay Bruno! He's such a little pocket rocket. I would love to scratch his back…;-)ReplyCancel
Ooooh – a performance by Macklemore, Ryan Lewis, Madonna AND Queen Latifah! Allllright! That's bound to be awesome – can't wait 🙂ReplyCancel
@califblondy – yes, they collaborated with Robin Thicke … it was an amazing performance (the best yet)ReplyCancel
OK, everyone. Consider your tushies clean and yourselves tucked in. This nurse is off to bed. Enjoy the rest of the show.ReplyCancel
i don't know how long i'm going to lastReplyCancel
Im not gonna lie I flipped over to The Kardashians lolll –GOOD NIGHHHTReplyCancel
I'ma get more shine in a little bit
Soon as I hit the stage applause I'm hearing it
Whether it's black stars black hearts I'm feeling it
But can't none of them whip it like I do
I, I gets it in mmmm ya… I go hard
When they see me pull up I whip it real hard
I whip it real hard, real hard, I whip it real hard
I heard through the grapevine that gay couples will be married onstage during Macklemore's performance!ReplyCancel
Derek, Who's gonna read us a bedtime story after NN gives us a bath?
priceless surprises? wow!ReplyCancel
Night night naughty nurse, may all your dreams be as sweet as you…O:-)ReplyCancel
IT'S PINK TIME! Been waiting for thisReplyCancel
Bruno! Awwww … I thought he would be performing 🙁ReplyCancel
About 32 random people will be married with Queen Latifah officiating.ReplyCancel
@kristin exactly!
@derek dont go
goodnight @NN miss yaReplyCancel
Yipppeeee – P!nk! She's an amazing performer. I wish she was singing one of her 'poppier' songs though.ReplyCancel
Lord I love me some Pink!ReplyCancel
i know you can do it Pink. Good Gawd, already!ReplyCancel
Oh shit! Go Pink!ReplyCancel
I wish she would do something different.ReplyCancel
Nitey night NN – don't let the bed bugs bite (or scratch your back)ReplyCancel
Not to sound ungrateful, but … this is exactly what she did at her concert #NotNewReplyCancel
They should've had Cory play that role with her …ReplyCancel
This is 'Fun', right?ReplyCancel
WHAT!? GO PINK!ReplyCancel
No, it's not – ignore me …ReplyCancel
Jeeze, she joined the circus! I wish they had name captions…who is this guy?ReplyCancel
Gosh, P!nk's out of breath! Honestly, at her concert she just kept going and going and going … it was surreal (but she'd been performing in Oz pretty much non-stop for months on end).
I love her voice … this is a great collaboration … the guy is great too.ReplyCancel
@JSierra – who is Lena? And is Nate from a band, or a solo artist?ReplyCancel
Come on Lorde … come on … come on …ReplyCancel
Who are these people singing the artists' songs???ReplyCancel
why are the min pops on/ReplyCancel
AAAAAARGH!!! Go Lorde and Joel! #SoProudReplyCancel
Bless Bruno and Katy for being so gracious 🙂ReplyCancel
Good! They deserved it. I'm surprised they didn't show the music board " as best band backup"ReplyCancel
Lorde is nor a pretty thing is she?ReplyCancel
I love Pink, I don't care if she's done the trapeeze (sp?) thing a million times before, it's 1000x better than anything that's been on that stage tonight. And now I just need Daft Punk/Pharrell/Nile to perform!
Oh and GO LORDE!
@JSierra Isn't Lena dating that other guy in Fun, the one with the big ass hipster glasses?ReplyCancel
I know what you mean jsierra,I though she was southern in her sluuur. I wasn't expecting an Anglo ish accent…ReplyCancel
@Renoblondee – I think she just takes the 'goth look' a bit too far.
@JSierra – I know what you mean. I think she sounded incredibly nervous, hence why she went up a bit at the end of one of her sentences. I don't sound like that – I work in Oz a lot too though, so my accent is very neutral. I thought she sounded a tad British.ReplyCancel
@JSierra An easy mistake 😉 I'm kind of ashamed that I actually kind of knew you were wrong. Lena is bleeh.
I love seeing Ringo sing 🙂ReplyCancel
What is up with the whole Beatles thing? Its pissing me off. Yeah, OK …yada yada can we get on with this? My buzz is dying here…
Love you Ringo, truly
@JSierra – thanks for that! I thought he looked like the guy from Fun. Wow – it could be a 'showmance' between those two? Otherwise, interesting combination …ReplyCancel
If you are playing by your drinking game rules, you are indeed drunk JSierra.
Don't we honor the Beatles every other year? Do we just do a rolling tribute between Springsteen, Prince, and the Beatles on alternate years? When will Sisqo and Dru Hill get their due?ReplyCancel
I think JT definitely deserves it – voice of a male angel, that one. Not necessarily Jay Z though …ReplyCancel
Step he is in Fun, I at least got something right in that equation, surprisingly. This boxed wine is good, someone take it away quick!
Karen I too know things I am ashamed of, mainly things about reality stars that I have no business paying attention too.ReplyCancel
Jay Z made a lovely tribute to his wife, but where was his mention of "sorry but JT couldn't be here tonight because" … self-centred twat made it all about him.ReplyCancel
dick move JayZ. typical thingsReplyCancel
It may not be saying much but Ringo still sounds as good as he did in Octopus's Garden 😀ReplyCancel
@Kimba – I sort of get the impression that they're not talking to one another, even though they're seated beside each other. Something is amiss there. Or maybe they made a pact not to perform without the others (RIP)?ReplyCancel
@JSierra Fortunately we don't get a lot of reality shows over here so I haven't gotten accustomed to them and therefore don't feel the need to look them up now that I know how the internet works. But regular Hollywood gossip is my Achilles heal.ReplyCancel
I think we lost the kiwi contingent. Only stepforded is left to represent… But I could be wrong :-\ReplyCancel
I hope the trolls don't get to Lorde – she received some really nasty comments on Twitter about her boyfriend James … no wonder some of these acts get shielded from all the media stuff by their minders.ReplyCancel
@Steampunk – who else here is from NZ? I think I've missed something!ReplyCancel
Oh cool – love this!ReplyCancel
Who? …speaking of old, I got new glasses today…:-DReplyCancel
Kendrick Lamar is great, I can't believe he lost to Macklemore in all of the Rap categories. Loving this performance!ReplyCancel
LOL! Go Taylor, go (dancing)! Who is that with her?ReplyCancel
@JSierra – there were two other people dancing – I think (couldn't quite make her fact out though), one may have been Katy.
They just flashed to Lorde – I don't want to diss my fellow countryperson, but her expression was a bit nana-like! LOL …ReplyCancel
@Steampunk – what colour frames?
I got some a couple of weeks ago – cats' eye frames, dark blue, with cute paw prints on the side – Collette Dinnigan designed. Love them!ReplyCancel
Hee hee – Steven Tyler singing along from the audience …ReplyCancel
Here's Catt Sadler's Dopelganger …ReplyCancel
Lololol I just looked at your pic step! Hilarious! I'm not sure who else, I'll get back to you on that but I remember going another NZ? Wild!ReplyCancel
Step yeah it looks like a lot of people are standing now, idk if it was the angle or what but at the beginning all you could see was a sea of seated audience members and Taylor dancing in the first row.
Jeez I hate this girl's music, I feel bad because she was really sweet and cool on the red carpet but her "Blowing Smoke" song drives me absolutely bonkers. Her dress is not okay though. Not okay.ReplyCancel
@Steampunk – Dame Cate rules! Hee hee 🙂 I wasn't aware of another Kiwi posting here.ReplyCancel
I just have to say again .. Hurrah! Kendrick + ID tore it up!ReplyCancel
Now that shit is Texas not Southern. I will not represent that xmas lite country be….ReplyCancel
Okay, neon cacti…i'm outReplyCancel
Best part of that song was that it's now over.ReplyCancel
This is a letdown after Kendrick. I like her merry go round song though.
p.s. How did Kendrick lose to Macklemore? I just don't get it.
pps. I'm in love with that man.ReplyCancel
Good night, all!ReplyCancel
@Orvilla – don't be a piker! The best is yet to come!ReplyCancel
Why do they keep mentioning acts that we still haven't seen? This last half hour is going to be packed!!!ReplyCancel
@JSierra I have to admit I'm late to the party, I've known about him for a little over a year but man oh man what a year it has been! He is clearly the best thing to come out of the rap world since I don't know when basically. He's incredible consistent.ReplyCancel
Night or villa, sweet dreams, better morning…
Blogger is holding comments so I hope I catch you
Hshit! Who was with Imagine Dragons?? If that was Kendrick Lamar, I take back all the boring talk, that was FANTASTIC!ReplyCancel
I'm still here. I'm trying, buddies.ReplyCancel
Am I right in saying that there's still an hour and a half left? When are Daft Punk coming on?! This is so loooong. /rant overReplyCancel
Julia sure is getting around a lot these days!
Gorgeous dress – she looks great.ReplyCancel
Julia Roberts?? Rilly? Who knew she had boobs?? NO MORE MCCARTNEY!!ReplyCancel
Why is Julia introducing my Paul? Go away.ReplyCancel
@Karen – according to my TV schedule, it finishes at 5pm … so an hour to go.ReplyCancel
Lol jsierrahey no doubt texas Would blush for that act in front of these blue state slickers.
Contain your people and there wouldn't be trouble… 😉
my boyfriend is swearing that Paul McCartney is going to die in 2 years or go into hiding!ReplyCancel
See, I was wrong again – here he is, performing with the only other remaining Beetle (or, should that be performing with the only remaining Beetle, given it's Faul, not Paul).ReplyCancel
@Orvilla – your boyfriend is 50 years too late with that prediction – 'real Paul' died back in '60-somethingReplyCancel
Is that Johnny Depp on the screen or am I having one of my dreams?ReplyCancel
@kristin hahaReplyCancel
Ok Kristin, don't make me grab your glass….. Just hang in and…
Aw fuck it , I'm going for a smoke…
Oh dear … Nancy is singing along but doesn't appear to know all the words :-/
Haha – look at Yoko …ReplyCancel
@stepforded good one! i will tell him that.ReplyCancel
Yoko'll probably sue, saying he stole the lyrics from some catalogue John owned or something …ReplyCancel
Look at Ono grooving to this shitty song! She's beloved here in Iceland.ReplyCancel
@Jsierra niceReplyCancel
@JSierra – he's probably rolling in his grave over what Faul did to his hair …ReplyCancel
seriously, love you guys but deuces!ReplyCancel
The Camel did not approve.
p.s. If I think Jay Z is hot, does that mean I have a camel fetish?ReplyCancel
Another one for our boy, @Derek Harvey! <3 Pharrell <3ReplyCancel
Come on Lorde, Lordy, Lordeeee …ReplyCancel
@Renoblondeee – are you jumping up and down? 🙂ReplyCancel
That's his consolation for not getting an AOT nod!ReplyCancel
I haven't liked Paul since the Beatles broke up.ReplyCancel
So is the lovely Jessica Bruno's other half? Nice tribute to his Mum there … love Bruno 🙂ReplyCancel
Oh piss off, stupid Twitter woman!ReplyCancel
I need to start watching NCIS again. I miss Pauley Perrette's crazy.ReplyCancel
So that would be 40 years?
I agree JSierra, but it would be nice if they had their names captioned along the bottom of the clips or something – I mean, who are these emerging superstars?ReplyCancel
These Mortein fly ads are so annoying … they must've scrambled to get the cool advertisers to pay for a slot during this telecastReplyCancel
O have visions of them dragging ho! Onstage like a WW1 vet..ReplyCancel
Yes beth,very lameReplyCancel
Hi Beth! No, it's been quite good … there've been a couple of fantastic collaborations; I'm sure there will be more in the next 45 minutes …ReplyCancel
The Isley Brothers! I love their music …ReplyCancel
All I need is for Kris and Waylon to fuck up and my night will be complete…waste that isReplyCancel
Please tell me it's time for Daft Punk.ReplyCancel
Hey, Jeremy, 1994 called and want their leather jacket back …ReplyCancel
This is not Daft Punk.ReplyCancel
Oh FFS … Willie Nelson??!!!
Time to feed the cats their dinner, methinksReplyCancel
Love this song!ReplyCancel
It's our Kris, ladies!ReplyCancel
Love me some Willie though. Have him and Snoop ever gotten together for a little relaxation I wonder?ReplyCancel
Kris Kristofferson looks to be in pain … crikey, this is just awful.
Hopefully these next two will rev things up … not looking great though.
Where are all the gangsta rappers???ReplyCancel
There's TTM! I thought you'd gone to bed too!ReplyCancel
LOL!!!! Willie and Snoop – gosh, imagine them getting together for a collaboration of the music sort … that would be a must-watch.
The audience are lapping these two up.ReplyCancel
Oh, wait – I know this song!
Katy Perry does too … she looks happy … is that Bradley Cooper standing behind Ringo Starr (checking his phone)?ReplyCancel
Hate to say it but this is the Texas whup ass that I was raised on. Jsierra this is my Texas!ReplyCancel
Blake has a sexy voice and a look to match …
Oh look, Tricia and Macklemore like this song …ReplyCancel
I will always be attracted to Sean Lennon. Met him last year in Reykjavík. He's just hot, can't explain it.ReplyCancel
@Kimba Seriously? I need to look that shit up!ReplyCancel
Not too bad. Shelton did better than I thought. Kris man…you needed to do more shots 😀ReplyCancel
I think we all know this is going to Taylor.ReplyCancel
Taylor isn't really 'country' though, is she?ReplyCancel
@step yes mam I am!ReplyCancel
Oooooh – Taylor looked pissed before she realised the camera was on her … great win for the Catt Sadler lookalike!ReplyCancel
Taylor is not winning AOT! Love thisReplyCancel
Ahhh Steam now I get what you were saying earlier, I agree!! Nothing beats some good ole Texas country or Southern Gothic. I hate country, unless it's Texas or southern gothic.
Speaking of good country, we need a new Civil Wars album, please!
NPH! Is it safe to assume we are onto the musical portion of the awards?ReplyCancel
Here we go!ReplyCancel
Where is @Derek Harvey …
Ooooh, Stevie Wonder too! Whooop!!!! Whoooop!!!!
*And up goes the volume*ReplyCancel
Lololol jsierraReplyCancel
Oooh, Pharrell's going through the change, voice keeps crackingReplyCancel
I bet a certain radio host here who I cannot stand is feeling stupid now, having commented a while back that she interviewed Pharrell and he was "stupid, didn't seem to know how to answer questions and probably wasn't destined for a long-standing career in the music industry". HA!!!!
The Grammys need to sell these collaborations on iTunes!ReplyCancel
I thought RoboCop, but it's reallly more like FanFic Analog style, isn't it?ReplyCancel
It's so cool seeing the other musical superstars bopping away to the performances 🙂ReplyCancel
Renoblondeee, look at Bruno go … dancing away! 🙂
Steven Tyler is just so cool – he dances away to everyone and sometimes sings, too. He'd be an awesome party guest.ReplyCancel
This song is so Earth Wind and Fire kicked up to me…ReplyCancel
This was everything I've been waiting for. Thank you France for doing one thing right and giving me Daft Punk.ReplyCancel
Maybe they changed the collaborations … because Lorde definitely said she'd be performing with David BowieReplyCancel
That performance saved my night. Good jam!ReplyCancel
That performance reminded me when, a few Grammy's ago, Jay Z did the New York anthem, his performance built and built until everyone was vibeing and you could feel the electricity through the TV, this was something like that, everyone was GROOVING drunk or not, that was the BOMB.ReplyCancel
Song of the Year up next, says my source. Watch out for Joel Little, for Lorde.ReplyCancel
Lorde and Taylor Swift hugged after Lorde won her Grammy, apparently #BestiesReplyCancel
There are so few of us left here, I can here the echoes …
Drinks are on me! 🙂ReplyCancel
Get it Carole! You go girl! Nice harmony with whositReplyCancel
That wasn't who I was expecting Cindy to announce.
Drink up bitches, because Cindy sounded a little wastey.
I hate Sarah's music with a passion unparalleled, but I really love her as a person. I also really like this version of Brave, the original one can disappear forever.ReplyCancel
Here we go …
Dum-de-dum-de-dum … drum roll …ReplyCancel
There were people on a forum I'm on actually saying that Taylor Swift is the next Carole King. I like Taylor's songs but no. No no no no no.ReplyCancel
Come on in! 🙂ReplyCancel
I really want Pink to take this but i'll settle with Bruno/Lorde. Anyone but Katy really.ReplyCancel
Hey sherry, we are hanging on but this last hour has been the best so you're in good timeReplyCancel
And the Grammy goes to …
Oh gosh, I love Macklemore and Bruno …
But it goes to:
Wooohoooooooo! xxxxxxxxReplyCancel
Please let Joel speak …
Yay! Good on ya Joel 🙂ReplyCancel
I think Ella is trying to sound British – she doesn't normally sound like that :-/ReplyCancel
So is Mary Lambert not singing with Macklemore? We get Madonna and Queen Latifah? Is she gonna get married to her girlfriend on stage? So many questionsReplyCancel
Agreed this last hour has been waaaay better than the first.
Lorde may say some stupid stuff in interviews but I am really impressed/refreshed by her excitement and genuine happiness at the awards tonight. She is extremely talented and deserves it.
Shout out to Marlena in the Chevy commercial right now!!ReplyCancel
One more nomination for Lorde to come …
I don't feel bad that Bruno and Macklemore didn't win because they've won soooo many other awards and their popularity is likely to remain, whereas Lorde's might fade … especially as she relies on Joel to co-write her songs – she's not like Taylor Swift who is self-sufficient.ReplyCancel
@Karen – the last time they performed this song, they had Jennifer Hudson do the vocals with Mary … they might do something similar agin this timeReplyCancel
@Stepforded I really hope so, I love her voice.ReplyCancel
I think people interpret Ella ("Lorde") as being uppity based on what they hear and see in the media and her image; the reality though, is she's very humble, down to earth and kind of ordinary. I always laugh when people guess the blinds about drugged-out tweens being her … the reality could not be further than that.ReplyCancel
Jared, please sing that next time … it would add to your hotness 🙂ReplyCancel
Okay, time for the volume to go down … right down low … Metallica!ReplyCancel
The last time Metallica performed at the grammys Lorde wasn't even born.ReplyCancel
I fucking love MetallicaReplyCancel
This dude looks far too clean cut to be a heavy rocker!ReplyCancel
Think they could turn up the Singers mike so we can hear the Song?!ReplyCancel
Taylor Swift has just Tweeted a very cute picture of her and LordeReplyCancel
I like some of their songs. My older brothers were huuuuuge Metallica fans and I grew up listening to them. Ditto for the boys at my school, every school dance was basically a Metallica concert.ReplyCancel
LOL @ Kimba … gosh, this is hurting my ears … and I'm a self-confessed turn-it-up-loud-house-music-fanatic!ReplyCancel
Damn if they didn't wake up the room!!!ReplyCancel
However, all the smirking is making it lose a little gravitas…ReplyCancel
IS Steven's fly undone?ReplyCancel
I like Metallica, but that was crap. Is Hetfield's voice shot, so they put his mic level so low you couldn't hear him sing?ReplyCancel
Smokey looked like he had been hit with a fish! Completely non plusses 😀ReplyCancel
Here we go … here we go … here we go …
And the winner of record of the year goes to:
Pharrell and Daft Punk!
Count! Nice of you to drop by 😀ReplyCancel
Sorry for sounding smug and annoying about Lorde's wins tonight … just really needing to celebrate a win after losing the America's Cup (yachting) last year! 🙂ReplyCancel
Daft Punk!!!!!ReplyCancel
Our Prime Minister will probably declare a public holiday – "Lorde Day" – and insist on her parading through the biggest cities on a float with her Grammy Awards – in celebration 🙂ReplyCancel
JSierra, I am going to forgive you for hating me for Metallica, and imma gonna tell you why: you are too young to know what they were back in the day. Plus, I live in Canada AND Alberta, they wouldn't let me in unless I did some air guitar to One. That's right, I pulled the age card.
count: voice was totally shot!ReplyCancel
@Karen – have you stopped jumping up and down and celebrating yet? 🙂
They were awesome and SO deserved to win! 🙂ReplyCancel
Step naahhhh you have the right to gloat! When a foreigner wins it is a real accomplishment versus a lot of Americans where it is all money and influence. Mostly money and influence, there are some who sneak by without their souls being sold or stolen. Don't shoot me!ReplyCancel
The fact that they are going to make a lot of money on the album sales iS what keeps this thing going in overtime. Can't sell what wasn't heard, I guessReplyCancel
@Stepforded I'm trying to handle myself with grace until album of the year is announced. I' probably break the floor if that one goes my way. 😉ReplyCancel
@Sierra – 🙂 I couldn't help but notice on Swift's Twitter feed that there are already those replying to her photo, saying Lorde is the devil and what-not … siiiiiigh …ReplyCancel
Cool – Super Fun Night is on tonight … love Rebel Wilson! 🙂ReplyCancel
TTM the words you speak are true. I was brought into being at the very end of the Metallica hayday so I will never understand the appeal. As for it being a Canadian requirement, we are stuck with JayZ and Beyonce. They play Holy Grail on the rock and alternative stations. All hope is lost.ReplyCancel
Queen Latifah looks fantastic!ReplyCancel
Get your dancing shoes ready, folks!!!! Here they come!
So this thing runs over?
I just tuned in and am currently being tortured by Beyonce Knowles.
Oh here's her gangster husband. At least he's better than she is, I can't believe she even has a career singing like that.
Oh no wait, there's Madonna. I guess I can believe Beyonce's got a career.ReplyCancel
@Karen, I thought that was the Album of the Year?
Wow – Mary's voice!!!! Beautiful …ReplyCancel
Macklemore uses his hands the same way my four-year-old does. Voluptuous hottie singing backup needs her mike turned upReplyCancel
It's like visiting my Grade 9 dance in a time warp, with that string tie and hairReplyCancel
That backup singers is in a flattering gown . she looks beautifulReplyCancel
… But they didn't say their vowels!
Madge looks rough … really rough … why's she acting elderly?ReplyCancel
They're all crying! Maybe me a little tiny bitReplyCancel
Hahahahaha – Madge can't sing as well as Mary! So there you go …ReplyCancel
Remember when Madonna's music was fun?ReplyCancel
Some of those audience members did not look impressed (not Katy Perry – she looked ecstatic)ReplyCancel
Oh, Album of the Year IS still to come … wrong again …
Darn TV guide said this was meant to finish at 5pm; now it says 5:30pm … #ThingsToDoReplyCancel
John Mayer just pooped his pants when Katy Perry caught that bouquet so happilyReplyCancel
That was so touchingReplyCancel
Oh good Lord that was sweet!ReplyCancel
@ ninotchka, going on 3 1/2 hours :-\ReplyCancel
Oh my. My eyes may have peed a little.
@Stepforded, no that was records of the year which I think is the same thing as song of the year. I'm don't understand myself. I think song of the year is for the songwriter and record of the year is for the producer/mixer.ReplyCancel
Well, she never COULD sing, as a singer she was a great dancer, but her music used to be fun at least. It was kind of excruciating when she was butchering the part there with the hook singer who actually CAN singReplyCancel
Madonna sounded shaky and thin. I think this is the first time we've heard her sing in 20 years…:-DReplyCancel
30 minutes? What are you smoking, a hookah?ReplyCancel
@Kristin – because a whole lot of people – same sex, mixed sex, same race, mixed race – got married during Macklemore's song.
Are you watching The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills?ReplyCancel
Heya Steam, THREE AND A HALF HOURS?
I have some things to do this evening. I'll have to come and go.
It's funny watching the beginning while you guys watch the end. Doesn't matter. I probably won't know any of the big award winners anyway, unless it's Led Zep.ReplyCancel
Maclemore sang his song , latifah came out and announced couples were going to marry while Madge sang. Latifah pronounced them married by the power vested ..and bouquet then cryingReplyCancel
I'm thinking Taylor Swift might not win the big one, just because she's won over and over before … and she'll win over and over again … I could be wrong though (wouldn't be the first time)ReplyCancel
Ninotchka, the first hour is dryyyy. You won't miss a thingReplyCancel
My cat Dennis is getting really cross … I went to feed them when Metallica was on but returned and he's not impressed. #ThisBetterFinishAt5:30pm!ReplyCancel
@JSierra – that sounds like fun but the only shows I have here post-the Grammys are the news #MondayNightInNZ 🙁
These tributes are nice, but why only air a snippet of one of their work?ReplyCancel
Actually, this last hour and a half are the best of the timeReplyCancel
Miranda Lambert looks a lot like Kristin Chenoweth in the faceReplyCancel
@nino… did you like her in that hilarious Steve Martin movie?ReplyCancel
Has Miranda Lambert lost the chubby? (I'm not talking about Blake)ReplyCancel
Acckkkk make that hour fifteen. This shit is awful with Miranda. They arecdesy PPP trying the everley bros song. And its all her!!!!ReplyCancel
That was a very flat version of that song …ReplyCancel
@Karen – for sure, she's a lot slimmerReplyCancel
Taylor won album of the year only 4 years ago and she's only 24. I don't think they're going to reward her the big one again so soon. I think inly U2 and Stevie Wonder have multiple AOTY wins. I might be wrong but I don't thing the grammy people wanna put her on that pedestal with them.ReplyCancel
Phone! What did you do?
They are destroying…
I love these threads that Enty puts up – it's so cool hanging out here with you guys!ReplyCancel
@Nino – no, and no mention of where he is, eitherReplyCancel
I smoke too ninotchka, but I'm a outside dog..:-D what can I say , it gets me out of the house periodicallyReplyCancel
This new butterfly lash mascara from L'Oreal looks good …ReplyCancel
Bwawhaha! She called him John Legend not LennonReplyCancel
Last one …
Album of the Year …
And the winner is:
I hope it's Macklemore …
The Grammy goes to:
Daft Punk – Karen's favourite!ReplyCancel
Anybody see manga anime " Black Butler"? Yoko looks like one of the charactersReplyCancel
Yay for Karen!ReplyCancel
What a great way to live life as a celeb, in those outfits – nobody would ever bother you … all the money and fame but no hassles …ReplyCancel
That would be awesome if it was like Joel McHale in there, just pops his helmet off at the endReplyCancel
Beautiful Pharrell is such a gentleman …ReplyCancel
I've decided Pharell looks a bit like one of my horses – very sleek, with a long narrow nose, and beautiful bone structure …ReplyCancel
Is that Paul—-? WhatReplyCancel
NIN and QSA????? Plus Dave Grohl?? My 90s head just blew offReplyCancel
I feel like I just won a Grammy.ReplyCancel
@TTM – wouldn't it just! I love Joel McHale!
… Or it would be really funny if it was someone else you would never think of that jumped out … from another music genre entirelyReplyCancel
LOL … imagine if Julia Roberts jumped out – she is everywhere at the moment, after all …ReplyCancel
Is that guy at the back singing the same song? #ConfusedReplyCancel
Josh Homme is hot hot hotReplyCancel
It must be past Lorde's bed time over there, surely …ReplyCancel
Right?? When the taller one lifted his arm I thought, hey, he's a tall drink of water…love Queens of the Stone AgeReplyCancel
I'm not watching the Grammy Awards and can't keep up but I wanted to pop in and say I started Girls last night and… nice! Solid writing, interesting premise. I'm biased against Lena for her posture and attitude (I know, I know, shallow much?) but she's actually a good actor and writer. WTG, Derek & Lucas!
Lorde, how I love Lorde. I hope she wins all the awards.ReplyCancel
I'm going to have to go and blast some Ministry of Sounds remixes to clear my head of all this metal …ReplyCancel
Tell me about it, left to my own, its rhythm and blues, 60 s motown the 70' s balladeers like Dylan , Kristofferson .. Hell the 40 s too. Big band, blues,honkytonk,…
This stuff…meh
Good night ladies!! Another fun night! See you cool peeps aroondReplyCancel
Make that 3 hours 45 minutes . It is Ovuh!ReplyCancel
Apparently they didn't start airing the Grammy's on the left coast here until 8PM so the roomie is ensconced on the sofa but she's sharing her champagne. Hate to say it buy Robin Thicke actually makes the Chicago songs better. For a moment I thought it was Justin T..Oops!ReplyCancel
Night TTM. Sleep wellReplyCancel
Those bastiges left out Monsters and Men.
Goodnight everyone!ReplyCancel
I know ninotchka, Chicago should have put a contract out on him while making the Grammy album. Such a toolReplyCancel
@Seven Preach it! What's a band gotta do to be nominated?ReplyCancel
Okay, I saw Chicago. Sorry Robin, but Robert Lamm is hotter. I wonder if there's a Frasier or Friends' rerun on somewhere?ReplyCancel
Night step, rise like the sun , bright and warm 🙂ReplyCancel
Is it just me? Keith Urban looks like that Garth Brooks album where he tried to disguise himself and sing rock? Is it me…..just me?ReplyCancel
Understood, its midnight here in Virginia and I need to get a CIG break. Y'all have fun. NightReplyCancel
I would have been glued to my chair ninotchka. Lol. What was the premise?ReplyCancel
@kimba: How were the Ks? What the K-trashes? I wasn't watching that, I was watching True Detective. In tonight's episode, we got some titty outta the broad who plays Harrelson's wife.
The fact that the music scene is so shitty nowadays that they have to trot out broke down 'tallica shows the Grammys aint worth watchin.
Paul McCartney's droopy, bulldog cheeks, deflated mouth and nose are just make him look older and more decrepit when coupled w/ that wig/hair do/whatever that is.
Ringo was just happy to get a call.
TTM: Alberta is all Heavy Metal and Bret Hart huh? Poor girl, you probably see mullets every time you leave the house.
The best album Metallica ever put out was their first, Kill Em All. Some say it was the Mustane influence. Great speed metal, perfect background music for booting someone in the head. After the Black Album, Metallica's stuff aint worth a buck a CD at a flea market.ReplyCancel
V!just saw you! Hi!ReplyCancel
Oh god, Steam, it was so convoluted.
Old rape/murder cases resurrected with a new rape/murder case.
They have the guy but his DNA doesn't match one of the old murders.
They go back and the murdered chick's husband is a low-life cheater with a thousand pieces on the side. Three of them are Anton, Ann Margret and Fairchild. (Anton looked like absolute hell – worst of the bunch).
Smith was a young cop on the case back then. Now retired.
They try to figure out which one of the mistresses killed the wife.
The cheating husband burned up in a car crash.
Wait – was that Taylor Swift having a seizure? What the FUCK?ReplyCancel
Ninotchka: That SVU, it was the Mattress guy episode, right?
I watch that show so much on USA that I try to play Name That Rape, and see how long it takes me to remember the plot synopsis.ReplyCancel
A couple of Lorde updates for anyone who's interested:
She was booked to play @ the Laneway Music Festival in Auckland (NZ) today, but then when the Grammy nominations came out, had to pull out. So, she's going to put on a free concert for ticketholders in a couple of days' time!
Lorde was apparently so nervous that she decided to avoid the red carpet and just get into the show.
Joel (co-writer) is staying on in LA to do some recording stuff for the next few days, but Lorde is returning tomorrow.
Lorde and her bandmates have been reading through all the Twitter messages, with the guy on drums weeding out all the nasty negative ones, including those that are comparing him to Ellen DeGeneres.
I hope Lorde stays grounded and cool … and remember, any BVs that mention a starlet on adderrall or similar, unable to handle their success, definitely do not relate to this one (whose Mum travels with her everywhere, by the way).ReplyCancel
@Karen, I'm not watching, but Grammy.com has a poll that has Little Talks as an option for viewer choice as favorite video. I loved Little Talks but King and Lionheart is my absolute favorite.
The behind the scenes on King and Lionheart is fascinating.
Do you still live in Iceland? That's on my bucket list!ReplyCancel
@V, I've missed you!ReplyCancel
Meant to say – @steampunk jazz, the King and Lionheart video reminded me of your name. 🙂ReplyCancel
@Seven They've sold over a million singles I believe, that's 3x the population of Iceland. A huge accomplishment. And I still live in Iceland, you should definitely come over, we'll have some shitty Icelandic booze and some shitty Icelandic food (as a native I love me some putrid shark and brennivín, doesn't get more Icelandic) and go look at some pretty waterfalls 😉ReplyCancel
Ninotchka, JayZ's comment wasn't so bad. I mean he was really thanking God for Bey, and let's be real, I think men/women would do the same if married to her.
@Karen, I think I'm going to be headed to Iceland next year. I may need to get some insights from you!ReplyCancel
@V More than happy to help and give some insights! It's a lovely place.ReplyCancel
Sorry, V, I am not a fan of musicians, actors and athletes blaming god for giving them awards, or touchdowns or wives, or anything else. In the immortal words of Sweet Brown, ain't nobody got time for that – least of all god.
And I absolutely loathe and despise Beyonce Knowles. I would curse the baby jebus if I had to deal with her on a regular basis. Seriously. Sorry.ReplyCancel
She was introducing Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr doing a number together.
A bad number, sadly, at least so far.
Oh, Yoko's dancing in the audience. How weird.
Well, that was terrible. TERRIBLE.
They're still rock royalty trapped in a room full of gnats.ReplyCancel
Hi guys, just checking inReplyCancel
I thought Blake did a good job. Shocked me actuallyReplyCancel
Wait til Miranda Lambert comes on in the last 1/2 hour. She ruins an Everley bros hit.ReplyCancel
Kris needed more tequila shots to loosen up his voiceReplyCancel
This is actually when the show turns around, as far as I am concernedReplyCancel
I know right?ReplyCancel
It seems the awards don't take as long the second time around. Not watching them again, just hanging around here. School in a couple of hours, no use in going to sleep.ReplyCancel
They do seem to be shortcutting it somehow, I wonder where?ReplyCancel
I'm thinking its like Kiss, never without the makeup, them never without the fencing masks. LolReplyCancel
Are my beloved Daft Punk on again? I'm such a screaming fangirl.ReplyCancel
Some people on a forum I frequent were saying that TSwift is going to be the next Carole King. Just let that sink in for a minute.ReplyCancel
Want me to find a caterer?ReplyCancel
Karen ,when you said it the first time I let it go… Those people are idiots. DO not play with them anymore 😀ReplyCancel
I'm still trying to let that comment sink in. It's been a few days but I still can't grasp it. Now I'm just enjoying watching gifs from when AOTY was announced. Classic is all I can say.ReplyCancel
If Swiftie ever grows up, she might be able to write a Folger's xmas commercial, even then it will follow a girl brewing coffee for her home from college lover…:-\ReplyCancel
Still hang in Sherry, I like you guys 😀
I'm actually watching Leverage and reading your comments…
@Sherry I have school in three hours, If I go to sleep now I'll never wake up 😉ReplyCancel
Its a Lil after 2…
No one in the place except me and youooo
Who was Tyler signaling with the ear pull? He mouthed "hi" to someone but I couldn't catch it. Some piece, no doubt.
Aww.. Smokey. A classic.
They're bringing out some big guns in this show. I'm going to have to stop saying so and so's a giant among gnats every 15 minutes.ReplyCancel
Have you heard the Lambert monstrosity yet?ReplyCancel
Where are we in the show? Has Macklemore made you cry yet and has Madonna threatened to steal your kids and/or sleep with them if they're over 18?ReplyCancel
You have to stick for that ninotchka, everyone else was too numb to comment…or to stunned to…ReplyCancel
@Sherry Song of the year is a songwriter award, record of the year is a producer/engineer/mixer award and album of the year is for everyone.
@V I liked it a lot, it was emotional but I'm with you, I think they're overrated and it was a travesty he won over Kendrick in the Rap categories.ReplyCancel
@Sherry And of course all of those awards are always for the performer too.ReplyCancel
Wait, what did I miss cleaning up the dishes… Karen Dögg is hosting a party?ReplyCancel
All of this goes on my tab.ReplyCancel
Mary the singer is beautiful and looking gorgeous for a big girl. Melissa McCarthy should ask her advice on dresses…ReplyCancel
BTW, Madonna looks ridiculousReplyCancel
@V, this second half was based around this song and ceremony, so they really pushed this song to its votersReplyCancel
But sherry when's the wedding? LolReplyCancel
Teheeeeheeeheee ninotchkaReplyCancel
V,O was rather dry myself. Rushed, staged and forced, I couldn't take the vows seriously.
Wonder if its legal?
Oops, froze up on meReplyCancel
Why is it that the only rap categories that are ever televised are the ones that Jay Z wins? Do they just really want him to show up or what?ReplyCancel
Oh… Richie Havens, that's a big loss.
And Jonathan Winters – genius. Big loss.
Still don't care about Corey Montieth.
Lou Reed – another big loss.
Oh god – here comes that Lambert chick. Looks like she was attacked by a tanning booth and she's going to destroy an Everly Brothers tune.ReplyCancel
That one year while they included everyone went on forever and the stars all complained…:-\ReplyCancel
Steam, as you advised it would be – that was a painful interlude.
I don't know that it's really necessary to enshrine the Everly Brothers with a musical tribute but whatever, they didn't ask my opinion.
God – there's that Shakira commercial again. That girl has ABS OF DEATH.ReplyCancel
Frightening hunh…
No energy, couldn't get in the right key til the other guy had to take lead…
The deal is
The tight harmonies inspired the Beatles
Who inspired this generation
And so on….
So ultimately, all music is descended from the Everley bros,.. 😀
It only took them 21 years to get a non-genre Grammy. And first EDM artists to get AOTY. Proud of my boys!ReplyCancel
Williams! That's the name , all I could remember is Paul!
Thank you thank you
Did anyone else notice the areoles showing in Beyonce's dresses ?ReplyCancel
I love Lindsey Buckingham. He's on my list.ReplyCancel
I only remember Paul from Smokey 2 or3?ReplyCancel
Who woulda thought Lindsey Buckingham could kick ass like that with NIN? Loved it! And always love me some QOTSA … I'm simultaneously attracted & repulsed by Josh Homme – the attraction def wins.ReplyCancel
My god, I haven't seen Lindsey Buckingham in a hundred years.
Once upon a time Lindsey, Christine, Stevie and the one I can't think of at the moment had to hold the concert together for about an hour, while Mick Fleetwood puked his guts out off the side of the stage. Good times.ReplyCancel
I'm sure that YouTube has her opening number , go for it. But it better be a good recording that damned fog went everywhere,… 😀ReplyCancel
Well guys, I hoped you enjoyed it as much as we did earlier:-\ 😀
I got to go for reals, its 3 am and even leverage is over.
I stag up any later, it will be church pastors and energetic choirs…
Night guys
Night V, safe trip 🙂ReplyCancel
Well I'm off, this has been fun!
Goodnight all.
Night ninotchka, bright butterfly dreams…;-)ReplyCancel
Night karen Dogg, stay awake girl , stay safe…:-DReplyCancel

For the first time in more than two months, City of North Augusta officials returned to meet with Aiken County Board of Education members with a new economic development proposal on Tuesday – hoping to stir some serious interest over a major initiative they call Project Jackson.
The City of North Augusta seeks support of a new tax incremental financing mechanism that would lead to major projects – a new minor league baseball stadium to bring in the GreenJackets baseball team from Augusta, as well as a conference center, a parking lot and a wide range of private development in the riverfront area near Hammond's Ferry.
The key for the City is that it has to have the approval of the School Board and the Aiken County Council – both agreeing to defer tax revenue to the City as a way to help the City finance Project Jackson.
However, Aiken County Council surprised North Augusta officials by voting down the request in March. The School Board never voted after North Augusta officials decided to regroup with financial advisers and private developments involved in the project.
North Augusta Mayor Lark Jones and the City administrator, Todd Glover, said they have addressed some concerns of the School Board members. Over the past two months, Glover said, the City of North Augusta and the other groups have considered 30 configurations of Project Jackson. Tuesday's presentation to the School Board was the 31st configuration of Project Jackson.
The Board members agreed to hold a public hearing at the district office Tuesday, May 21, at 6 p.m., giving people, pro and con, a venue to address the issue.
Opponents of the plan – among them Steve Donohue and Scott Gudith – expressed frustration that the School Board and administration gave them no opportunities to address their concerns after the City's presentation. They also were upset that the likely format at the public hearing will limit their ability to counter the City's efforts.
The latest proposal would reduce the tax revenue deferral from 30 years to 15, Glover said. Board members in March expressed skepticism about the use of public funding to finance the baseball stadium.
Now, the plan is to build the stadium without any funds generated through the School District's deferred revenue.
"The School Board never did vote on (the first plan)," said Glover. "We hope the changes to the model will get the five votes we need for the plan to pass."
North Augusta City officials also will make another appeal to the Aiken County Council. North Augusta officials need both entities to accept the plan, or it will never happen, officials said.
The expectations of the City of North Augusta, Glover said, is that officials expect to continue to negotiate the proposal with the School Board before a vote by Board members.
In effect, the School District would be deferring tax revenue that it currently doesn't have. The intent is to build up the 24-acre riverfront site that will provide a major source of revenue, said Glover – not only for North Augusta, but for the entire county.
The North Augusta City Council and other City residents visited Greenville on Saturday and attended the Greenville Drive baseball game.
Jones, Glover and other officials cited the impact the stadium has in that community. The difference between North Augusta's TIF proposal, said Jones, is that private development has a prospective contract in place to build new facilities in conjunction with the construction of the baseball stadium.
Gudith, a North Augusta resident who lives near the proposed initiative, visited the Greenville stadium. He acknowledged the facility was outstanding, and he had a good time. He has serious doubts about a similar effort in North Augusta, that there is no way to cram all the anticipated facilities in an area that's far too small.
Yet the opponents wouldn't support the plan no matter what the City proposes, Jones said. They simply don't want Project Jackson near their homes, he said.
The project will benefit the entire county and the region, Jones said, bringing in young professionals 22 to 35 who want to live in communities where such activities are.

Herndon Gone
The Blue Jays claimed right-hander David Herndon off waivers today.
The Phillies removed Herndon from the 40-man roster, which was not a surprise. He is recovering from Tommy John surgery and had been eligible for salary arbitration. Plus, several relief pitchers had moved ahead of him on the depth chart. Interestingly, to make room for Herndon on their 40-man roster, the Blue Jays designated Tyson Brummett for assignment. They claimed Brummett from the Phillies last week.
The Phillies have three players eligible for salary arbitration: left-hander Antonio Bastardo, outfielder Nate Schierholtz and infielder Kevin Frandsen.

Guess the Blue Jays just really like young Phillies players/prospects.
One minor league pitcher down, about four more to go!
It there no end to this great moves by Ruin? No, I am not alluding to his being released but to his being drafted under Rule 5 and retained in the first place. Will Michael Martinez be far behind?
Michael Martinez was taken off the 40-man roster a couple of days ago. Try to keep up.
I noticed nobody claimed Michael Martinez. That means he will still be around, probably at Lehigh Valley.
I noticed that also. I was really hoping that this signaled the end of the Michael Martinez "era". He was pretty useless.
Martinez made $900,500 in two years in the Major Leagues. Proving the grand separation between real life and pro sports.
The Phillies have picked up the 2013 option on Carlos Ruiz and will pay him $5 million instead of a $500,000 buyout. All option decisions must be made within three days of the end of the World Series. I think they still have options on Polanco, Wigginton and Contreras to decide. I don't expect any of them to be Phillies in 2013.

Searching through the postcards at Haywards Heath last weekend I came across a postcard of Worthing Pier that reminded me that I had some postcards of the pier in my collection. As I was down at Worthing last week and showed you a photograph of the pier as it is now, I thought I would show you an earlier postcard of Worthing Pier from my collection.
There picture really speaks for itself, the pier was partially destroyed in a storm on the night of the 22nd March 1913. According to the National Piers Society website Worthing Pier was re-opened a little over a year later on the 29th May 1914 by the Lord Mayor of London.
The news of the destruction of the pier was reported in The Times on Monday 24th March 1913:
Shortly before midnight on Saturday about 200 yards of the pier at Worthing was swept away. During the winter work has been in progress on the pier, the intention being to enlarge the shore end of the structure preliminary to the erection of an arcade leading into a shore-end pavilion. It was the swaying of a big crane used for lifting the ironwork into position that gave the assembled crowds on the front the first indication of danger. A few minutes later loud reports were heard above the noise of the gale, and three-fourths of the pier disappeared, isolating the pavilion and landing-stages at the far end. The electric arc lamps were extinguished by the severing of the supply, and the lamps on the parade and in the town were extinguished.
The pier was built in 1862 and represented a capital outlay of something like £17,000. Only the pavilion and the landing stages at the far end now remain, and the damage done is established at about £10,000.
At daylight the beach for a distance of nearly a mile was strewn with timber planking, iron seats, and other wreckage from the pier. The roadway along Worthing Parade and the adjacent streets were yesterday flooded to a depth of from one to two feet.

Add in Dudley being demoted and the starting wings and Pg are doing what we suspected from them but suppose to be off the bench.
Aaw, man. Clips got my hopes up in that 4th Q.
Just dug ourselves too deep a hole, but fought back valiantly. I still think we could take Miami in 7 if we were at full strength.
If we'd only had SOMETHING from anyone else but Blake, Jamal and DJ, we could have beaten the champs without 2 of our top 3 scoring options. 5 points from the bench is pitiful.
Would have liked to see Jamal go to the rack more... make the refs make calls. Although they fouled more, it seemed like Miami made their fouls count... a lot of ours were weak.
Straight up beast game from Blake. No, I would not trade him for LeBron.
I watch in the ESPN and I heard them talking that CP3 will play on Friday.
Dudley, from the bench is not producing, I think he is not motivated after he sign with us for how many years? I am not really a fan of him even if he is already a clippers, I hate him when he said that he is not coming to Clippers because we are like a JV (Junior Varsity).
I like Dudley as a person. He's a good dude.. I just wish he would knock his shots down.. I wouldn't mind him being here.. but he just isn't producing..
Doc said he won't play Friday but might play on Sunday
Skip bayless had the rockets 3rd and us after them. We are better than the rockets. Not sure how they can have a debate about the clippers v heat when our starting back court was out.
What's all the more impressive about Blake's performance was how hard earned it was. Usually when Blake puts up 40 it's because he's on fire, and incredibly efficient. Last night he put up a lot of shots, aggressively earned his way to the FT line. It was dominant in every way. Because he had to be. It was almost like a determined effort to have a big game, instead of just being "one of those nights".
didn't get to watch the game so I don't want to comment on highlights. But I need a confirmation from you guys on this...Sasha is in the books for 1 MINUTE of playing time and his +/- is shown as -11.
Did he really play only 1 minute in this game and we lost that minute by 11points? That is really hard to do, got to be a typo right?
Ha, that is amazing. He came in and Ray Allen made a shot on him for an and-1. He may have come in at the end of another quarter, but that has to be a typo on the -11
^ Nope. It's actually correct. Battier hit a couple of 3's at the end of the first and beginning of the 2nd, there was Allen's and-1 and he was on for a couple of LeBron FT's.
Just click on the play-by-play tab...
http://www.nba.com/games/20140205/MIALA ... tml?ls=slt
Amazing stat.
thanks Gents. Wow!!
What killed us was defense pure and simple. Getting behind 20 pts and getting carved up inside. No rotations, no perimeter defense. Was it 75 pts first half? Our offense was OK but ultimately they played like Champions. If only they could win on TNT. Barkley now has up #2 n the West. He won't call us "Tissue paper" any more.
We should have handed them their heads on a plate. You would have thought they figured out something but they got carved up second half. I'm sure Matt's hand is bothering his shooting. On one of those bunnies he missed he got fouled.
I don't know if I've ever seen a player in Beast Mode like BG. He physically challenged LBJ. James once tried to drive to the rack and BG made him pass it. Bosh couldn't stop him. At this level he's right behind Durant as MVP. FT's and a jumper and it will be close.
Another subject. Did anybody see the Cliff Paul comm with Kenny Smith and Ernie? He has one tremendous agent. With all this $$ would he really have gone to Houston? Probably but he would have given it a bit of thought. Is he the highest paid player overall in the NBA?
A sad note. Oden went to the locker room after only a few minutes. I pray he's OK
He is not right behind Durant - okc beating elite teams , we aren't
If he continues to play at the level he played against Miami who is better except Durant? He out beasted LeBron. Miami is an elite team. While winning helps it does not always. Except missing FT's this was an MVP performance. He should have had 46 if he had his usual 70%+. When was the last time anybody saw a game like that by a guy who took only a few outside shots? Posterizing gets more votes that a jumper. Nobody can stop Durant but who can stop Blake if he's like that every game? It has been said by a lot of commentators that he may become unguardable. When Paul gets back they should be a two man wrecking crew especially since Blake is capable of running the offense. People have been calling him the next Malone and he may be.
You're also forgetting that he has high visibility. Commercials don't hurt, they make him a household name. Why was Kobe an allstar when he didn't play?
My point is that a team's success matters - we aren't beating elite teams without cp3 - i won't argue that blake deserves to be in conversation, but you can't put him ahead of lebron, Paul George, or maybe even Lamarcus
Chalmers got fined for that flop on Blake...http://espn.go.com/nba/truehoop/miamiheat/story/_/id/10415273/ mario-chalmers-miami-heat-fined-5000-second-flopping-violation

Easy to do business with!
Ordered. Hurricane Matthew arrived shortly after the order. Did not know how it would impact the order. Parts arrived while I was still wondering. Well Done!
It took longer than usual for my order to come. When I checked the tracking site I saw that its was in route and should have been dilivered. I drop a note to CABINET Parts and asked if it got lost. They replied back immediately that it should be delivered
Great source for hard to find hinges.
Ordered the complete replacement hinges(2) they recommended because the original hinge was no longer made. I found that I needed only the one mount that I had specified originally and they said was no longer made but they supplied with both assemblies.

Blake Griffin has been amazing this season. You see spurts of greatness in the playoffs, BUT he is going against him self at times and mentally trying to overcome some hurdles.
Thunder can NOT stop Griffin. Only he can. When Griffin faces up and is confident and just is mentally focused Ibaka can not really stop him without fouling him. Griffin made some reckless and bad mistakes in Game 4 just forcing some post-up shots but he still had his regular dominant numbers.
If Blake can just mentally become more tough and just overcome these mental hurdles he himself puts on himself I think it will elevate his game to the next level even more. And I think it will come with more time in the league and just seeing it all. He still needs to mature and he will. I have faith, Griffin can be MVP within the next 2 seasons. He is so good, he stops himself by simply not being confident and being aggressive enough. He needs to face-up and be quick in Game 5 and Game 6 for the Clippers to beat the OKC without the games coming down to the wire as much. He needs to set the tone early and just feast on Adams and put Ibaka in foul trouble. I still think the Clippers will win in 6 games. Just hope Blake plays without "doing too much" as Doc likes to say.
This summer I want him to actually work on post moves, I love his faceup game, He has the Dream's shake on faceups with those hesitation jabs UNSTOPPABLE, love it. But I want to actually see some post moves.
Definitely man. He'll get there. He needs to spend a lot of time with Malone. He's his second coming and Malone has publicly already stated that he respects Griffin and would love to work with him.
The funny thing to me is that he is making big steps every year. He isn't a guy that has a gift for being a jump shooter. It will take time and effort just like any other profession. Seems like he is trending in the right direction to me!
free throws getting better
jump shot getting better
post moves getting better
I am sure he will work on his weakness as that seems to be his style.
I wonder if we will ever hear the commentators not say "he's been working on that in the summer" I love Blake his work ethic, and I think he will carry us to a few championships...
We are this year bro believe it. And I want to get tickets to game 6 know anywhere I can get good cheap tickets?
Let's give some credit to Serge Ibaka here. He's making life so difficult for Blake.
He's a way better defender than I've given him credit for in the past.
That being said, he's a dirty ass player and deserves to be castrated.
Bro have u seen Blake face him up? It's crazy how quick Blake is. Ibaka either fouls Blake, gets away with a foul, or gets scored on. If Blake misses then he misses, but like I said, I think Blake makes life more difficult for himself than Ibaka. Blake is too good to be stopped I truly feel that. And Ibaka usually gets some help on Blake.
There's no question that when Blake faces up and attacks quickly he can light up Ibaka (or anyone for that matter), but there's been a lot of instances where Ibaka has been able to match Blake's quickness and use his length to make Blake either miss the shot or pass into a turnover.
Besides the fact that I think Blake is a little hobbled, I think Ibaka has been defending out of his mind.
I'm sure OKC fans are pissed about KD not taking advantage of little Chris Paul guarding him at the end of the game, but we are here saying Chris did a great job on defense.
If we are going to praise Chris for defending Durant well, we must praise Ibaka for defending Blake just as well.
It's a bit of both. Ibaka is a great defender and is very athletic himself. But as stated before, he needs to face up more and use his quickness instead of trying to back down Ibaka. But Blake has also been neutralized many times when facing up so credit must go to Ibaka. But in the grand scheme of things, a true alpha dog superstar should be destroying single coverage. Blake is not there yet. He is still struggling with single coverage. Guys who get physical with him and/or has good athleticism bother him. So the next step for him to get to that highest level of superstar play is to destroy single coverage. Most greats worry about the double and don't sweat the single defender.
Blake has been neutralized many times even when facing up.
No doubt he's improved immensely (especially the jumpshot) but he really has no post moves. His game right now is really bullying his way into the paint, and throwing up an awkward shot at the basket while getting fouled. Effective, but it's not going to age well with amount of abuse he always gets.His footwork is also horrendous. He needs to fine tune these areas over the summer and develop some real post moves. No doubt he'll improve on this because he has a great work ethic.
Actually Blake has really good footwork. You hear Ralph and Mike praise
him all the time.
Blake actually is near exceptional footwork. What he doesn't have is finesse nor many back to the basket
post moves, and that
is what people want blake to have more of. Honestly I don't think that will ever happen.
He will never be tim duncan or Lamarcus. His style of play is more of a bull,
and it works for him. It seems to be who he is, and trying to get away from that
only makes him worse.
As far as Ibaka Guarding him I don't think anyone is saying Blake will beat Ibaka
every single play. No one in the history of the NBA except maybe Wilt,
has ever beating their man Every single play. That would result in a 100 point game.
However I do agree with this post. Over a span of an entire game, if Blake is aggressive
and plays to his strengths, and doesn't hesitate or over think it, he will dominate ibaka
and put up big numbers over the course of an entire game.
I was at the game yesterday and watched in disbelief for 3 1/2 quarters, truly epic come back, OKC has to feel snake bitten at this point.
I think it was BG's first drive to the basket and he went up and Serge punches him in the family jewels, once just once, I'd like to see how Serge like getting punched in the jewels. Send in Ryan Hollins and let him get suspended for a game or whatever. That's the same crap Serge pulled last year, when is enough enough?
After that play BG was very tentative (cant understand why?), he started to put it together but OKC has done a pretty good job defensively on him. Plus when we shoot 15% from the field in the first quarter all OKC has to do is pack the paint making it easier to double BG. I look for BG to rebound back huge in game 5 and have one of those games like when CP was injured.
Well this is what I started the topic about, it's Blake himself who neutralizes himself. He hesitates and doesn't operate "naturally" at times and overthinks. When momentum is with the Clippers you see Blake just attack the basket more freely and simply succeed. And it's cause he does often get double when he drives it in when he's facing-up. Ibaka needs help. No doubt about that.
Ibaka has neutralized Blake quite a few times even when Blake was facing up and without help. But I agree with you, it's more a mental issue with Blake rather than physical. He seems hesitant and unsure of himself sometimes when guys get physical with him. If he plays freely and attacks, he should have success because as athletic as Ibaka is, Blake is more athletic. Quicker, faster, more explosive, however you want to slice it.

text: Testimonial: we couldn't have asked for a better experience when it came to booking a monthly rental from key west hideaways. It was such excellent customer service and such an outstanding property for a reasonable price that we would never even think of going through anyone else in the future. Not only did our rental property look even better in person, but it came fully stocked with items that turned out to be so convenient for us. When we needed maintenance a few times during the month, the response time of coming and taking care of the problem was within an hour and was usually the owner of key west hideaways, Kevin. He was fantastic, super friendly and made us feel like friends. He even brought over bikes free of charge during our wedding weekend when he knew we were having people in from out of town. I highly recommend lost hideaway for the fantastic pool, perfect location and for being totally pet friendly. I was sad to hear that the sunroom we loved so much will be no more, as the owners of the home are doing renovations. Thanks again key west hideaways…you made our wedding month so incredibly special!

What to make of spring numbers?
Often during lulls in spring games, press box conversations often drift into unlikely directions. Today was no different with topics of Carrot Top, Gallagher, Matt Stair's new slim figure, Jamie Ramsey's "nickel and dime" blog and other oddities popping up.
During the lengthy Tuesday game, lost by the Reds to the Padres by a 7-5 score, the press box conversation actually fell back into a good baseball topic. What can be made of some of these spring results by the Reds?
After today's outing, Aaron Harang has a 9.88 ERA and had lousy-looking lines in his last two starts. Jared Burton has a 5.63 ERA and a team-high four home runs allowed, including one on Tuesday. Aaron Miles, coming off of a bad 2009 season, is batting a paltry .143 while regulars like Brandon Phillips (.125) and Orlando Cabrera (.175) are struggling.
When do we stop saying "it's just spring" and start worrying — if at all?
Keep these 2009 statisitics in mind:
Francisco Cordero had a 12.10 ERA in spring. He saved 39 in the regular season with a 2.16 ERA.
Arthur Rhodes had a 5.63 ERA in spring and 2.66 ERA in regular season.
Bronson Arroyo had a 5.95 ERA in spring and a 3.84 ERA in the season with 15 wins.
On the flip side…
Micah Owings was lights out with a 1.52 ERA in spring and had a terrible season (7-12, 5.34).
OF Darnell McDonald batted .300 in camp to make the team and was sent out by May.
Jay Bruce had a nice spring with a .300 average and batted .223 when the games counted.
Do Burton's numbers mean he's no longer a roster lock, especially with Logan Ondrusek looking great and throwing 7 1/3 scoreless innings? Is Harang headed for another tough year?
They say numbers don't lie, but in spring, they don't always tell the truth either. That's why I try not to make a lot out of anything based on spring stats, unless it's a position battle between two guys without much of a track record (ie: Stubbs and Dickerson for center field).
When it came to Harang, Dusty Baker was not worried.
"I definitely look beyond [the spring numbers]," Baker said. "He's throwing the ball with better velocity and coming inside, and using his legs. If you don't get the results, you have to find some positives in there. The positive is he's throwing the ball good."
*Baker will be in Las Vegas with the Reds for their evening split-squad game on Wednesday night. The club was scheduled to fly out on Tuesday night. That means bench coach Chris Speier will manage the Wednesday afternoon game vs. the A's in Phoenix. Pitching coach Bryan Price will be at both games because he wants to watch both fifth starter contenders, Mike Leake and Travis Wood, make starts. Price will fly to Las Vegas right after the A's game.
*There were six errors committed during the sloppy game. Drew Sutton's two at shortstop probably did not help his cause for the last couple of bench spots.

If Aaron Miles makes the team we'll know it was because of money and nothing else. Imagine if he didn't have the contract owed to him, he would have ZERO chance of making the team based on his last year and being so bad all spring. He not only hasn't hit, but he has been unreliable in the field at positions other than 2B, so he really doesn't give the Reds the same flexibility that other options (Sutton, Cairo) do.
Gentlemen, it's called spring training. New things are being tried by both sides of field. Base decisions off of career numbers. Averages are what they are because people do better or worse than their average. Let's just wait till Monday to see if the players are ready.
Ok, spring is just spring. Nonetheless, Harang's two tuneups for Opening Day were not good, and he's coming off two bad years. How can we not be worried? I found myself wondering yesterday if he were hurt, but Dusty's comments seem to rule that out.
