Seconded, really enjoy that album. They sound fantastic live, too.

Interesting, I thought they came together beautifully with Hamilton’s. I almost didn’t even notice they were Robin’s.

They sounded SO good. And I will always love white Jazzmasters.

That stage looks really cool. I like the purple.

He’s awesome.

I can understand how a TV producer would want to appeal to multiple demographics by having all these artists perform together, but I agree that it’s totally unnecessary. The novelty of it wears thin pretty quickly, and what’s the point of a Beach Boys reunion if they’re also playing with two other bands?

I’m not really the target market for the Grammys (at least I don’t think so) but a Beach Boys performance – a reunion, no less – is, like you said, totally enough on its own. Now it’s not really a Beach Boys performance anymore and instead an awkward mash-up that basically comes across like the Grammys trying to cram all the big names they can into their broadcast.

Every year I keep coming back to Sufjan’s Christmas stuff. Sister Winter is an especially awesome tune.

If you don’t already, you should follow Christopher Owens on Twitter – @Chri55yBaby. His tweets are awesome, and he’s done a few Twitter “essays” that are really beautiful and moving.
