The 1989 Grammys Fiasco is one of the most famous examples of how bullshit the Grammys really are.

At the 1989 Grammy Awards, a new award entitled "Best Hard Rock/Metal Performance Vocal or Instrumental" was presented. It was widely believed that Metallica's ...And Justice For All would hands-down take the award, with Motley Crue's Dr. Feelgood taking a close second place. Instead, Jethro Tull won the award. Jethro Tull hadn't released anything worth mention in a good 20 years at that point, and their lead singer plays the flute.

There was a great upset, the award was never presented again, and everyone now knows how retarded the Grammys really are.

This entire debacle can be summed up in one thought: Nuts and bolts, nuts and bolts, Metallica got screwed.
