The following is from Grammy.com (where, I might add, they have pictures
of TMBG winning the award!!!  PICTURES! so go to the site and get them...
or ask me to email them to you)
Oh, and they spelled Linnell's name wrong!!!   What the hell!?!?
figures.....  well at least They won!
----------------------------
Giants Party
John Flansburgh and John Linnel, collectively known as They Might Be
Giants, enjoyed a giant moment at the GRAMMYs today, picking up an award
(Best Song Written For A Motion Picture, Television Or Other Visual Media)
for "Boss Of Me," their theme song to TV's "Malcolm In The Middle." When
asked whether the pair had grown "sick" of hearing the song so much, they
responded with their trademark quirky humor. "Of course not! What kind of
crazy question is that? Where's Security?" bellowed Flansburgh. "We're
sick of many of our songs," added Linnel, "and sick of ourselves, but we
still like this one." The band has a Giants album, an album for children,
and a new theme song for "America's Most Wanted" in the near future, but
Flansburgh clearly spelled out his immediate post-GRAMMY plans. "I'm going
to party my face off." (2/27/02)

I just assumed that was our clue that we haven't suddenly been thrown into an alternate universe. That and the fact that their names will never, ever both be spelled correctly in one article.

I've been a fan for almost 10 years now and I'm 23. The first time I ever
saw them live was when I was 15 and my parents took me. (Aren't they cool?
They like Them and enjoyed the concert greatly.) Now I've seen Them 4 times
and at the last show I went to I felt just about average age as all the
fans. My friend's sister is a fan and shes 12 so that shows the wide range
of ages that They fans are.

On to the Grammys... yay! They won! That's cool. Someone good actually won
the grammys. Usually it's only middle-of-the-road pop stuff that you hear
about. (There are a few exceptions i.e. Dylan and U2.) But, does anyone
besides me feel a bit odd about the fact that now we are all fans of a
Grammy-award winning artist? Does this mean that those stickers that promote
that fact are going to be plastered on their albums now?

Well, ta ta for now.

Did anyone else notice that E-music gave Grammy congrats on their website
to Sonny Rollins and George Carlin,
but not to TMBG who were partially responsible for e-music's subscribers
and success as well as being one of their top selling artists.  That's
wrong.

Um, hate to state the obvious, but for the past, say, 10 years or so, U2 has
been the yellow line in the center of the road of music.  Besides, we're
overlooking an important thing here: TMBG is doing a new theme for America's
Most Wanted??

Does anyone know what the medal was that Flansburgh was wearing at the
Grammys?
