Since Britney is scheduled to open the show, there’s discussion about whether she will try to out-Madonna Madonna’s previous antics, or just try to redeem herself from her dreadful performance last year.

Yeah it is (and good for her). I like it for the laugh value. It’s on early here on the west coast, and there’s nothing on the radio anymore on Sunday nights anyway :/

I’m feeling a little more compassion toward Britney after reading that her mom has written a tell-all book slamming her. It seems Britney has seldom had anyone around her she could count on for healthy mature advice. Thank goodness Dad has gotten clean and seems to be genuinely helping her... and not just for the money. What a sad life.

Is there no getting away from Miley Cyrus? Walmart has become Miley Cyrus Land. I wish I could buy a filter.

I agree. It appears that she’s getting her act together — something you always want to see happen for a young mother of two.

Remember when MTV used to cool and edgy and actually play Rock N Roll videos...it quit being relevant in 1985....sad

For those of you that follow this sort of thing I have a question:

Was there any really good music created last year?

Something that my grandchildren will be playing and singing long after the Beetles, ABBA, Fleetwood Mac and the Eagles are long forgotten. If so, I would like to hear about it. I spend all my time reading FR posts so I really don't have the time to put into following the music scene. I'm sure you all understand.

It’ll be interesting to see how many of these freaks get up on stage and take awards for what their record labels and promoters put together (videos) and screech about McCain & Obama.

There is no escaping the Miley. Thank goodness my kids are already over her.

Speaking of Wal-Mart, I was reading yesterday about an AC/DC release that will be exclusive to Wallymart. How about that.. grandpas of metal are succumbing.

I do remember. And it was fun.

Have you ever tried watching their show “The Hills?” It’s literally unwatchable.

There was some. I’m not sure how much of it I’d go out on a limb and call ‘future classic,’ but it wasn’t all terrible.

I read she wasn’t performing, but that could be a lie to surprise people.
Will Drudge be performing? ;-)

To refresh your memory, this was Britney last year.
