And The Winners of The 2009 Grammy’s Are:

The Grammy’s were held last night and I’m officially getting old. A lot of the music that took home a phonograph was won by people who probably have never heard of a phonograph.

Meanwhile, Coldplay won a bunch of awards for ripping off Joe Satriani, Daft Punk beat out Madonna for an award, and Ministry won a grammy for their industrial cover of the Rolling Stones “Under My Thumb.”

Now get off my lawn and check out who else won last night.
