Joe Walsh at the Grammys?
David Wild posted a couple photos of Joe backstage at Grammy rehearsals that indicate he might be performing as part of the Beatles tribute. That and Lindsey Buckingham's appearance definitely mean I'll be tuning in!

Re: Joe Walsh at the Grammys?
Thanks for posting, Soda. I saw it in the same tweet, but since I was on my tablet I figured I'd 'post it later', then forgot! I'll record the show so I can fast forward over the 98% I don't want to see.

Re: Joe Walsh at the Grammys?
He's crazy busy this month. I think it's wonderful. There's been a real resurgence in his career for the last few years. That makes me so happy. Joe has become the 5th or 6th or 7th (whatever number we're on) Beatle! That must make him so happy. Those guys all worshiped the Beatles and there's Paul McCartney going to an Eagles show. That must blow their minds.
I'm rambling and not necessarily on topic so I'll add, sure hope I get to see Joe at the Grammys. I don't watch TV anymore so I'm hoping for a clip on youtube.

Re: Joe Walsh at the Grammys?
I'm with you, MV. It's great to see. When I see Joe thriving now compared to where he was 25 years ago, it's staggering. For most rockers his age, it's the other way around. :(
I'm guessing he'll be playing guitar as part of a band rather than taking center stage singing, but you never know! The odds are good that it'll be on YouTube, at least for a little while.

Re: Joe Walsh at the Grammys?
well...of course he's gonna be there to salute ringo...they are bro in laws.
cant wait ...
that and Chicago too :grin:

Re: Joe Walsh at the Grammys?
I haven't watched the Grammys in years. I might watched. I use to watch all the awards shows. I stopped many years ago.
Wasn't it a few years ago, Joe was on stage with Paul(ok maybe it wasn't him. I don't remember) with other musicians. Maybe I'm imagining that.
I bet Joe didn't think in a million years that he would be brothers in law with a Beattle
-
Re: Joe Walsh at the Grammys?
Yeah, Joe backed Paul McCartney at the Grammy MusiCares tribute in 2012. He also backed Paul McCartney on a late night show last year when Paul was promoting his latest album. I forget the details, though.
-
Re: Joe Walsh at the Grammys?
Thanks, Soda. I knew I wasn't crazy. lol I remembered that in 2012. I remember Paul coming on at the end of the live broadcast and I was waiting patiently for Paul.
-
Re: Joe Walsh at the Grammys?
That's why I joke about Joe being the 6th or 7th Beatle. Other then the Eagles I think he plays w/Ringo & Paul more then anyone else.
-
Re: Joe Walsh at the Grammys?
It definitely seems that way, MV. I was thinking last night, IIRC, every time I've seen Paul perform at a special event or on TV in the last couple of years, I think Joe has been with him. Yep - even The Beatles say that he's cool! :thumbsup:
-
Re: Joe Walsh at the Grammys?
I've got my TV set to record, but I'll be watching in real time tonight, too. I hope he gets a lot of camera time!
ETA: Just saw Stevie do the red carpet. I guess she wanted to see Joe and Lindsey in action!
-
Re: Joe Walsh at the Grammys?
I saw Joe a few times in the audience. He even got face time on camera when they were talking the New Artist. He's in the front row with Ringo and Paul. So we'll be seeing him a lot on camera.
-
Re: Joe Walsh at the Grammys?
Yeah I saw him in the audience too. I definitely want to see him perform!
-

Re: Joe Walsh at the Grammys?
Since I'm bored by most of the acts, I'm spending the next few hours playing "Spot Joe, Stevie, and/or Lindsey in the audience." Joe is easy-schmeezy with his prominent Beatle placement! I haven't spotted the other two yet.
-
Re: Joe Walsh at the Grammys?
Maybe they will pop on camera. Now why are they there again? I forgot.
-
Re: Joe Walsh at the Grammys?
Lindsey's playing with Queens of the Stone Age, Dave Grohl, and Nine Inch Nails. That won't be 'til the finale.
There's a Beatles tribute tonight, and Joe will be a part of that, judging from the photos David Wild tweeted and his status as official Beatle BFF.
Stevie's just there as a spectator, unless there's some surprise thing going on.
-
Re: Joe Walsh at the Grammys?
Thanks, Soda. I knew about Joe. I just didn't know about Lindsey and Stevie. Hmm Stevie there with Lindsey. She has to be there some reason.
-
Re: Joe Walsh at the Grammys?
Just saw Lindsey. He's diagonal behind Paul McCartney on the side opposite of Joe. Can't believe I missed him! Maybe he just sat down before Chicago went on, lol.
Stevie said on the red carpet she didn't even know she was coming until two days ago. Her outfit was not really red carpet worthy (love Stevie so much but it's the truth) so I think she might not have anything going on tonight besides being a spectator. Maybe Lindsey had an extra ticket, lol. I'd be happy to be wrong!
Side note: I like Pink but this sexualized circus act is ridiculous.
-
Re: Joe Walsh at the Grammys?
I have sooooo many comments I could make regarding the current state of today's 'music'.....ugh!!! Since when did music be more about the looks and flair than the music itself?! These pop stars are driving me crazy.... Some more than others.
-
Re: Joe Walsh at the Grammys?
I don't get it either lol
-
Re: Joe Walsh at the Grammys?
Wow, Joe didn't accompany Ringo! Guess he's going to come out with Paul later?
-
Re: Joe Walsh at the Grammys?
I will sound like an old fogey, but I feel like people are really embracing bands like the Eagles, Stones, Beatles, Fleetwood Mac right now and hanging on like grim death to them because there is simply no music that will fill the void when they stop performing - nothing, really nothing for the past 20 years, and none coming up. U2 and Pearl Jam's music will have some viability, maybe. None of today's music will sound good 20 or 30 years from now. I do like Get Lucky, but that's because it sounds like it's straight out of the late '70s.
TIVOing the show so I can fast forward as needed later tonight. Yay Joe!
-
Re: Joe Walsh at the Grammys?
They just said "Paul McCartney with a very special guest" coming up.
-
Re: Joe Walsh at the Grammys?
I spotted him in a clip, too. Hope he's on soon.
As for modern music, I actually enjoy Pink, Bruno Mars, Lorde, Beyonce... but I hate how much spectacle and vulgarity is inserted into it now. There's always been sexuality involved, but the lyrics having to be bleeped in pop tunes... that used to be reserved for gangsta rap. The special effects, acrobatics, etc. are lame, too. I want to hear the music, not watch you show off your trapeze skills.
Hey, someone tell Beyonce and Jay-Z to stop dancing and sit down, they're blocking the people behind them. ;)
-
Re: Joe Walsh at the Grammys?
I know, Soda. I was like Joe didn't sing with his brother in law. It was good to see Peter Frampton with him.
-
Re: Joe Walsh at the Grammys?
I have found that the mute button comes in handy for these shows!
I saw a tweet from last night's Eagles concert that said it was so nice to go listen to a group that knows what music is and knows what guitars are for. He was with his parents and lamented that he wouldn't be able to take his son to a concert twenty years from now because music would be dead by then.

I couldn't agree more. Teens today absolutely love the artists you mention. I agree that it's simply because it was great music and there's nothing at all like it today. I feel sorry for today's kids. Graduating in 1985 I really caught the tail end of all that was wonderful in popular music. It was all down hill from there.

Re: Joe Walsh at the Grammys?
Beatles fans - has it been a while since Paul and Ringo played together? Because apparently he is the "special guest." Joe's still in the audience.
-
Re: Joe Walsh at the Grammys?
I don't think Joe is performing, but it was good to see him on the camera.
-
Re: Joe Walsh at the Grammys?
I guess I will see Joe during the Beatles tribute. Will he be part of that?
-
Re: Joe Walsh at the Grammys?
That's what David Wild's tweets led us to believe.
-
Re: Joe Walsh at the Grammys?
Well it was a great shot of him next to mrs mccartney
Maybe he is performing on the beatles special next Sunday to celebrate them coning 50 years ago
-
Re: Joe Walsh at the Grammys?
Joe is having fun. He was trying to dance to this artist name Da Funk and Stevie Wonder.
-
Re: Joe Walsh at the Grammys?
They showed the clip when Joe was playing with Paul at the Grammy awards years ago.

I saw that. Love it!
-
Re: Joe Walsh at the Grammys?
They are being very secret of who will be on the Beatles tribute on February 9th. They just gave a few names.
I really hope Joe is going to be part of it, but he probably is. It was cool to see that old clip when Joe played with Paul years ago on the Grammys.

Re: Joe Walsh at the Grammys?
What the freak is up with Daft Punk not losing the lame robot outfits to accept their Grammys? Do they not know English or something? Talk about taking a gimmick too far...
Well, Lindsey Buckingham will be on soon, so it will all be worth it for me.
As far as Joe not performing... at least we got to see him stand up and dance at a concert!
-
Re: Joe Walsh at the Grammys?
Seriously?! A mass wedding ceremony at a music awards show?! This is too lame for words!!!
Sorry, Negative Nancy strikes again, lol.

It was good to see Joe there and supporting his brother in law. He got a lot of camera shots and seeing Joe dance. That was funny. LOL
We probably will see him during the Beatles special. Now I need to remember February 9th.
