Ben Folds Five
The Grammy Awards are tomorrow so I’ve had to put together a few different mini-pieces to help advance that event. These include:
Tegan And Sara accusing their mom of being high.
Melanie Fiona assessing her chances of beating Beyonce.
And the important internet grabber, “what time are the Grammys?”
I did a few other briefs recently, including:
Another SEO-bait story “what time is the Super Bowl?”
And the story of Ben Folds Five encountering characters from Fraggle Rock.

Neil Young
Neil Young gets no respect. From the Grammys. Just like Rodney Dangerfield.
According to Aaron, that is. He went deep into the Grammy Award archives and found out Neil has won Grammys only twice in the 22 times he’s been nominated. And one of those was for packaging.
Heck, Weird Al has won more Grammys.
CBC Music wanted a closer look, so the resulting article tracked what other Canadians had won more Grammys than Neil, and what won in the years that Harvest and After The Goldrush didn’t.

Dream Theater
The fantastical new universe known as CBC Music has now launched and Aaron has begun contributing to it.
His first story was a Grammy Awards advancer with James LaBrie of Dream Theater about the band’s hard rock nomination. Both Aaron and James were born in the same hometown so the conversation quickly deteriorated into talk about mental institutions and local hockey games.
