Grammys hahaha c'mon..David Gilmour is a God and you are bringing up a shitty phony award show that means absolutely nothing. Grammys are a joke and a popularity contest at best.

fun fact: grammy awards are worthless

Maybe so, but they did nominate David Gilmour! I can see why, that guitar solo is David's soul at it's pristine best. So clean and pure.
