The 2021 Grammy awards, scheduled for January 31st without an audience, have been called off due to high Covid levels in Los Angeles.

California recorded 74,000 new cases on January 4.

It is hoped to restage them in March, still without an audience.

    And I was so looking forward to hearing self important people of questionable talent give vapid acceptance speeches and lecture the rest of us on environmental and social issues. Guess I’ll need to look elsewhere that evening for a dose of hypocrisy and virtue signaling.

    To all of you who posted above – I wish I’d said that!
