We're about a week away from the 1st ATRL Grammys, so it's time to start putting together the show! I'm calling on all of you to get involved.
I think it would be a lot of fun if all the awards were presented by different members, so let me know if you'd like to participate and if there's a category in particular you'd like to present.
I'm also taking suggestions for who should "perform" at the ceremony—both artists and specific performances. Think about who's nominated, what music has been meaningful to the past year and what's hot right now.
They'll be next Saturday, the day before the real Grammys. I haven't decided on the time, but I'll definitely do it earlier than the nominations ceremony so that more people can participate. I guess some time in the afternoon?

I'd love to present. I already expressed interest in it, and I'd be fine with presenting anything. I'd love to do one of the major categories. Not any of the rap ones, I honestly hate most rap music, but any pop one and some of the alternative / rock ones that artists like Imagine Dragons, OneRepublic, and Lorde are nominated for I'd be fine with. I mean, really... Anything you need me to do, I'd love to present. Just contact us about which categories we should present. And I'd recommend performances from all the big nominees. Definitely Lorde, um... "Just Give Me a Reason" should probably be performed. Adele should perform because she probably won't perform at the real Grammys. She can do "Skyfall" because she's nominated for it.
I'm still conflicted whether to present all the categories during the ceremony or just a select few like the real Grammys, with the rest maybe announced pre-show. I'm leaning toward the latter.
