39 geeky Grammy facts Well i didn't know that....
http://www.musicradar.com...cts-195159 Sunday 8 February marks the 51st Grammy awards ceremony in Los Angeles California. That means a night of glitz, glamour, large amounts of back-slapping and usually a little controversy about who wins. As with The Brits in the UK, the Grammys aren't popular with everyone. Maynard James Keenan of Tool reckons: "I think the Grammys are nothing more than some gigantic promotional machine for the music industry. They cater to a low intellect and they feed the masses. They don't honor the arts or the artist for what he created. It's the music business celebrating itself. That's basically what it's all about." All true, perhaps. Then again, Keenan has never won, has he? Da, Da, Da....Emancipation....Free..don't think I ain't..! London 21 Nights...Clap your hands...you know the rest..
