MTV European Music Awards

A new FB friend was at the MTV European Music Awards in Madrid this weekend. He posted on the social network photos from the event - all of which reminded me of how horrid our time was at the awards show when it was held in Munich. Seriously, that had to be the worst year ever for the show. No big names. No big reason to watch. But this year, there was plenty to relish: Rihanna (whose latest, I hope, is a bit better than last), Ke$ha (sure she's a tramp but Dr. Luke writes catchy music for the over vocalized "artist," and Miley (whose new song remixed by Alias is quite good). I'm just sayin'.
