234.0. "1993 Grammy Awards Show" by SALEM::TAYLOR_J (Pickin' and a grinnin') Thu Mar 03 1994 02:02

    any thoughts on the Gramy awards ? Bono (from U2) swearing
    live on network TV , Followed by an impassioned speech/intro
    for Frank Sinatra ( Made Frank tear up ) , The network cutting
    Franks speech , Billy Joel stopping in the middle of his song
    " River of dreams " and saying ....We are wasting valuable advertising
    time...in response to channel 7 cutting Sinatra's speech . Even
    Gary Shandling(sp?) the M.C. commenting on it . Aerosmith winning best
    song and Steven Tyler(singer for Aero.) Saying tyhat you wouldn't
    believe how much it costs to dress cheaply and How he love's
    music because it " gets me off "  and all the other things that he
    likes are fattening , sinnful or grow hair on your palms .

    Bono was fine (minus the "F" word)
    Gary Shandling was fighting a losing battle with CBS (not channel 7 btw)
    but he gave a few digs at CBS for (insert the word Bono used) up.
    Aerosmith...Steve is Steve, whats wrong with what he said ? he has
    always said RNR gets him off....if people think with a dirty mind
    then thats their problem....
    Billy Joel....the people should have given him a standing O when he did
    that in the middle of his number ! way to go Billy !
    Frank will get back !, as Bono put it he is the chairman of bad
    attitute :')
    
    CBS couldn't even get the graphics right most of the time...to bad CBS
    didn't have a 6 hour grace like they did with the olymipcs, guess they
    couldn't handle a live show to save their soul....
    
    I won't even start in on THAT SOUNDTRACK WINNING best album....GEESH !

    Loved the Pepsi commercial about Woodstock II with valet parking ,
    a driving range and cellular phones . Great commercial .
    
    Frank Sinatra deserved better . 3 cheers for Billy Joels commentary.
