Checking out the Grammy’s…

Since we are a bit out of the loop when it comes to popular music, we decided to take a peek at the 65th Grammy Awards on Sunday night. 

We watched the ceremony for a little over one hour and after being served with a wide variety of demented Mardi-Gras or Halloween (?) costumes, a retrospective on Hip-Hop to marked its fiftieth anniversary we had enough of fancy celebrities competing for the evening’s limelight but not much good music that could sooth our hearts and souls and decided to call it a night. 

It’s incredible how the public has become attracted to the celebrity status over what it can produce and what the real needs and problems are on the planet. I even thought that instead of parading in a Los Angeles arena, all of these beautiful people should be sent for a full week to Ukraine, Somalia, Afghanistan or anywhere they could help out, clean up and make themselves useful! 

Well, thinking that way probably shows that I’m now too old for watching the people and the Grammy’s when there is so little good music to hear...
