    any award for art is a joke, totally disrespectful to all other artists in my opinion, especially when you have an award voted on by industry insiders who obviously have allegiances and are influenced, so the grammy's are a joke, a total waste of money and resources when there are people hungry and starving, just a big hypocritical bunch of nothingness, so glad Pearl Jam doesn't lower themselves to be part of the charade

    I didn't know where to post this, but Dave put this on his Facebook page from this year's Grammys.

    I'm not sure if anyone notices, but it looks to me like Paul is trying to grab Dave's Love Gun.

    In fact, I think Dave is grabing his own Love gun.

    I guess i'll be the first one to say that this is one moment in PJ history that embarrasses me as a fan. If he felt so strongly about it, he should have stayed in his seat and kept his mouth shut. All that tortured artist shit back then was BS.

    Just curious, why do you think that the Grammy's are such a bad thing? Besides that Eddie says so? It's a bunch of people reaching the pinnacle of recognition for their craft. Why be a hater, when you can just let other people have their fun at zero expense to you?

    I could care less about the Grammys, the Oscars, the S.A.G awards, the I have been an actor a long time awards, the ESPYS, Individual sports awards shows, Country Music Awards, the World Music Awards, MTV awards. You get my point. It's all ego stroking bullshit.

    Black Keys over Jack White and fun. over Alabama Shakes? The big award shows always play it safe thus making themselves irrelevant. I've been nominated for an Emmy 5 times and never won (lost to the same guy every year). But its honor just to nominated right? Yeah sure.

    Unless everyone in the band felt the same way he did, he ruined the evening for his bandmates.
    I cringe thinking about it. And I'd bet that if Ed had a flux capacitor, he'd go back in time and tell himself to chill.

    glad to see Jack White show how rock still reigns supreme amongst all the crap there.
    Beavis: All my friends are brown and red? What does that mean?
    Butthead: It means that his friends are like turds and that they like suck.
    Beavis: Heh heh. Oh yeah. Yeah! Get those spoons out of my face before I shove them up your butt!
    Butthead: Huh huh.

    No doubt that JW stole the show for me. Saw him in LA last year with the Buzzards (boys) and loved it so much went the second night and saw the Peacocks (girls) from the 4th row. Saw almost 20 different concerts last year (including Missoula) and the Peacocks rock the most! Rest of the Grammy's was pretty vanilla in comparison.

    Jeff -- yeah. I dont remember Stone saying anything about it aside from "Look! A Grammy!" :D
    Ed explained he was agitated because he couldn't get out to smoke; that's why I feel he regrets it.

    I am sure the band doesn't care they were making a move post Ten & Vs to be less commercial anyway, I have a feeling they booted Dave Abruzzese because of that, it seemed to me that he was trying to be the next Tommy Lee and I don't think that jived with the rest of the band who cared more about the music, but I could be wrong
