what are the numbers on the side for? That is how many points they have. How many of the six categories that I've recorded so far they got right.

Sorry, for making the first post so long, but I tend to do that... Anyway, who are you guys excited to see?! I know everybody is going to be shocked by this , but I am really excited to see Bruce Springsteen. Unless things have changed, he is supposed to open the show with his new single. The song is "eh" at best, but it will be good to see the band back performing together again. When your favorite artist is in his 60s, you learn to appreciate every opportunity you have to see him out there still making music. Here is the song for those interested and Bruce looking like a dork in a music video like he always does: I am also excited to see The Beach Boys who were the first concert I ever went to and Sir Paul, of course. I am THRILLED that Adele is healthy enough to perform on what will undoubtedly be "her" night as far as awards go. Interested in some of these collaborations, especially Maroon 5 (who I kind of hate) with Foster the People. I really wish that they would have been able to come to an agreement with Bon Iver to get them to perform, but no such luck it seems.

Official 54th Annual Grammy Awards Thread LIVE FROM THE STAPLES CENTER IN LOS ANGELES, CA - 8E/5P on CBS Unfortunately, "The Biggest Night in Music" is being overshadowed by the tragic and untimely death of Whitney Houston. However, the show will go on with a tribute to the legend already being planned at this late hour. As fans of all types of music, we hope that you will join us while you watch the telecast in discussing the winners, the losers, the performances, the fashion, or anything else that you find interesting. I hope that everybody has entered into our latest contest which involves trying to predict the winners of this year's Grammy Awards. If you haven't entered yet, CLICK HERE to go to the contest thread and get your predictions in before the telecast begins. Please be sure to fill out BOTH Part 1 and Part 2. Even if you aren't interested in competing for a prize, we hope that you will enter anyway and play along. My goal for this contest is to update the standings three times on this thread throughout the evening. Since we are including 18 categories in our contest, I'll try to update after 6 of the awards have been given out, after 12, and then a final tally at the end. If all doesn't go as planned, please forgive me. I'll do my best to get the standings posted ASAP after the telecast is over. Details about this year's show have been slowly revealed over the past weeks and I definitely think that there is something for everybody. There will undoubtedly be touching tributes to Amy Winehouse, Etta James, and now Whitney Houston. Also, besides the normal performances we all expect from the nominees, there will be some interesting collaborations and a few music legends making appearances. Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band will be opening the show with their new song "We Take Care Of Our Own" and will be performing together for the first time since the death of Clarence Clemons last year. The Beach Boys will be celebrating their 50th anniversary this year and will be performing together for the first time in years at the Grammys. Paul McCartney will be closing out the show with two songs. One of which is to be from his album Band on the Run. FULL LIST OF PERFORMERS INCLUDE: Adele; Jason Aldean and Kelly Clarkson; The Beach Boys; Foster the People and Maroon 5; Tony Bennett and Carrie Underwood; Chris Brown; Deadmau5; Foo Fighters; David Guetta and Lil Wayne; Glen Campbell, The Band Perry and Blake Shelton; The Civil Wars; Coldplay and Rihanna; Alicia Keys and Bonnie Raitt (Tribute to Etta James); Diana Krall; Bruno Mars; Paul McCartney; Nicki Minaj; Maceo Parker; Katy Perry; Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band; Taylor Swift; Joe Walsh FULL LIST OF PRESENTERS INCLUDE: Marc Anthony; Dierks Bentley; Jack Black; Reba McEntire; Drake; Fergie; Lady Antebellum; Miranda Lambert; Gwyneth Paltrow; Diana Ross; Ryan Seacrest; Ringo Starr; Amir “?uestlove” Thompson Perhaps most interesting to a group of Greyson Chance fans is that he has been tapped to be one of 25 official "couch commentators" on the telecast. So be sure to follow @greysonchance on Twitter and let us know if you agree or disagree with his impressions of the proceedings of the night. More information here --> blog.twitter.com/2012/02/watch-grammys-unfold-on-twitter.htmlFor our international fans, we will do our best to post a link to a live stream for those that live in countries where the show isn't televised. Right now, this looks like a promising, but there is no way to know until tomorrow night --> tvsatelliteplus.com/I think that is the end of my spiel. I hope that everybody can check in as the evening progresses and join in the discussions!

He better come over to the UK soon and actually release the album properly over here. This tracklist would be perfect! It is weird to be that the album hasn't been released over there. I know he doesn't have the fanbase over there that he has in Asia, but I would think that he is popular enough to make releasing it worthwhile. It is quite clear that I just don't really understand the releasing of albums in other countries though. Did everybody see the picture Greyson RT of people coming out to buy his album in The Philippines?

Pretty terrible news. I can't say that I am all that shocked, but I think EVERYBODY hoped that she would be able to turn her life around. So much talent. Her version of the Star Spangled Banner is still one of the best. Also, a friend RT this and I saw it. An isolated vocal track of hers from the song "How Will I Know". What a voice! --> jakefogelnest.com/post/17460767716

Just figured I'd note that this morning Greyson had slightly over 1.5 million followers. So it took him a little over 2 months to gain half a million more. I bet his trip to Asia will gain him even more!

Just a few things I found while searching the internet: --The Manila venue is actually called the Smart Araneta Coliseum, not Sarenta. Interscope listed it wrong. --The Singapore ticket site says that Greyson's concert will be approximately 1 hr. 15 min. long. --For anyone flying over from the U.S. to catch a concert ;D Your best ticket prices appear to be in Malaysia: $29.26, $45.90, $62.53 (U.S. currency) You can also get an early-bird discount of 20% if you order by Feb. 29. --As previously mentioned the ticket prices for Singapore in U.S. dollars are $56.21, $77.91, $92.37, $100.40. --For Jakarta the prices are $43.13, $55.46, $73.94, $92.43, $123.24. --The Manila ticket site hadn't listed Greyson's concert event yet. --Of course, there are also the extra fees they charge whenever you order tickets. Thanks so much for the information! Let me just call Delta and hop a flight over there. I've actually flown from Atlanta to New York for a concert before, so I guess it isn't that much of stretch. I would LOVE to go to Asia though. How cool would that be? I wonder if Greyson will get to do any touristy things this time around. Looks like a very quick trip if that is all the dates they are doing. I wouldn't be surprised to see more added, though.

Why would your mom get angry if you asked to go? The worst she can do it say "no".
Good luck to you, but I don't think you can hide taking a flight to the capital to see a concert from your parents.

Yeah, idk what the problem is. I can't get any of the links to work. At lease for me, when I click the link above, the picture pops up. Give it a try. All I get when I click on it is "AccessDeniedAccess denied" Maybe now is the time to learn how to do a screen shot

That's cool. I think I first saw him in February or maybe it was early March. I can't remember now. I'll have to look it up.
