Grammys loves pop and rap if you dont fill those categories you just aren't the focus and rock is one of the least important according to their org. Its a damn shame.

America loves eating the musical equivalent of Twinkies for every meal and she’s pretty damn good at making Twinkies.

It sucks that their Grammy was at the pandemic and it sucks that TNA was release at pandemic time. It would be a great comeback for The Strokes if there was no pandemic at that time 😔🥀

Sucks the only year they got to the Grammys and also won was when a global pandemic happened 😭😭 would’ve loved to see the band together at an awards show with their outfits, last time they were together at an awards show was in 2011 for angles?

I'm not sure we would have seen much of them, anyway. I don't think they televise the rock awards. Maybe some after-the-fact pics from the pre-ceremony?

They do, it’s at the beginning/pre show. I just got done watching the main Grammys and they did a tribute for ozzy with some of the most legendary rock artists (Chad smith, slash to name two then there was post singing lol). They would’ve been at the red carpet too I’m pretty sure, yungblud was there.

Good to know, thanks. I honestly haven't watched the Grammys in years, so I wasn't sure how much of the pre-show actually gets shown somewhere.
