PrintableAm I the only watching the Grammy pre-show online??
I'm watching the pre-show, it is streaming live at www.grammy.com. Some lady and a guy just finish singing "God Bless the Child that has its own". I read the list for the pre-show and Sheila E suppose to be there. It started at 1pm. I just it on a few minutes ago online, so I'm not sure if Sheila E came on already. Tia Carrere is hosting the pre-show. Right now, Roberta Flack announcing the award for Classical category. [Edited 1/31/10 14:55pm] PRESHOW: Additionally, the 52nd Annual GRAMMY Awards Pre-Telecast ceremony will take place from 1–4 p.m. PT at the Los Angeles Convention Center and will be streamed live internationally on GRAMMY.com beginning at 1 p.m. PT.

Charlie Wilson is performing now on the pre-show. Charlie got the party started and had the audience on their feet! [Edited 1/31/10 15:21pm] | |

Prince is the youngest by about a decade... Maybe that's it? | |

Yep, those should do it. Btw, I saw Christmal Carol too and I was very dissapointed. I soooo prefer the old Disney version.  Thanks for your answer. I liked that the Christmas Carol had 3D effects in it. That was really cool! RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you. | |

Maxwell just won his first Grammy! I thought he had some already for his first album.  Oh well, I'm glad he won. 
I can't believe "Blame It" by Jamie Foxx won a category though.  "You put water into a cup, it becomes the cup...Now water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend." - Bruce Lee

It required 10 people to write "Blame It?" That's ludicrous. "You put water into a cup, it becomes the cup...Now water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend." - Bruce Lee

I was trying to catch the names of the winners, because a lot of people here don't know they could watch the pre-show live. I stumbled upon it by error, when I was reading a little further down on the notes. I caught the show about an hour after it was on. I loved Charlie Wilson's performance. You can watch the pre-show later online, once it's recorded. [Edited 1/31/10 15:48pm] | |

They should show this pre-Grammy show on CBS. The entire program would take up about 6 hours on Grammy day, but so what, at least every artist nominated can be seen by more people. "You put water into a cup, it becomes the cup...Now water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend." - Bruce Lee
