Just a head's up on my grammar: I don't know whether it should be Grammys, or Grammy's, and either way my computer says it's wrong, so I'm just going with Grammys for now.
So, I did a search here on TalkCSI to see if there was a thread for this year's Grammys, and I didn't see anything, and heck, I like you guys and want your opinions on this. Here goes nothing. A little info on the Grammys (as of Sunday, January 28, 2007) (all that follows came from Wikipedia, so I don't know how reliable it is):
They are going to be on Sunday, February 11th, at the Staples Center in LA (obviously).

There are LOTS more categories, but I had neither the time nor the patience to put them up, you can see a complete list here on my LJ. . Or, if you want to go laugh at all the random awards they have (they have awards for Polka. I never would have guessed). Or, if you are a fellow music geek like myself and like to know about all the producers and classical music recordings and stuff like that.
So, are there any surprises on that list? Are you looking forward to any of the performances (or the presenters somewhat lame jokes
) Will you watch 'em at all? Are you lookin' forward to the crazy get-ups the attendees wear?
(I'll post my opinions later... my brain's fried for now.)
Enjoy!
