This further proves it's an elitist panel that would rather be a "private club" than a celebration of music. One news item is not surprising in a genre merger that shows it that I do not need to get into in order to get a reaction but that is not the only thing.

We know the Grammy awards are from an elitist panel that doesn't celebrate music.

What I'm curious about is how this is Prog news or a Prog press release?  Question

Do we actually need another reason? LOL

These idiotic awards shows are just some people trying to tell us what we should like. Angry

Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

As are ALL, yes ALL. awards.. Nobel prize - forget it, an elitist committee goes through all of the candidates. Alternative Nobel prize - you must be joking; there is another committee which YOU don't sit in.

The only award that counts for me is the "good neighbourhood. award" which is given to people in our neighbourhood that have been active in the community. And that's only because I happen to be on that committee!


BaldJean and I; I am the one in blue.
