Are you watching the Grammys tonight? Why? The Grammys are boring. CORRECTION: the Grammys used to be boring. This year, Lindsay and I will be joining up with the Stereogum team to liveblog the show. It’s a party! That’s what a party is, right? Refreshing a website while the TV plays in the background? Perfect. This will be even better than the party where you logged onto the internet during the Super Bowl to party with Will Arnett brought to you by Pepsi. Remember when you did that? All alone? Just you and your computer? Nerd.
The show starts at 8, so you should probably log onto stereogum.com around 7:45 and just get ready for all the great jokes and Grammy coverage. You won’t want to miss a single second. Blogging! You can also follow us on the Stereogum twitter. Siiiiick.
Party on, Garth.

Let’s talk about why the Grammy’s are going to be fucking awesome this year:
1. 9-month pregnant M.I.A performs with Jay-Z. Tonight’s her due date. Nothing makes Taylor Swift and the Jonas Brothers more tolerable than the prospect of seeing some real, live placenta.
2. Radiohead + The USC marching band. I am rolling a special fatty just for this.
3. Lil Wayne is nominated for 8 awards which means we are likely to see a man who is stoned on cough-syrup make a speech on live television. Reason enough.
There’s crazy breaking news that Chris Brown was arrested and charged with felony battery charges last night, so he won’t be appearing at the awards tonight. Apparently he got into an altercation with an “unidentified woman” in a limo and roughed the woman up pretty good.
Even worse, Rihanna won’t be appearing/performing at the show either. (The show’s producers are reportedly “scrambling” to fill a big chunk of time. Justy Timbs and/or Al Green may fill in.)
Let me just say this, if that 12-year old shit Chris Brown put his hands on Rihanna I am personally flying to LA to kick his punk ass.
I’m dumb. Where’s the blog?
It is here:

God if your there, please strike Justin Timberlake with lightning for taking the spotlight off Al Green, and for just being an overall douche.
No. You are overreacting.
God, can you please explain to me why you made Katy Perry famous?
Admit it, you fell asleep at the wheel a bit on that one.
Who exactally are you refering to killahmcgillah?
It wasn’t me, I was at a She & Him concert at the time.
Gabe, I am eagerly awaiting a literary evisceration of Chris Brown, corporate-casual style. Have at it!
