We're All Getting Old...

It's been 30 years since the Recording Academy screwed up and gave the best hard rock/metal Grammy to Jethro Tull instead of Metallica. Jethro Tull won for their album Crest of a Knave.

I've never been a Jethro Tull fan. I just don't get them. I went to high school with a guy who was an absolutely rabid Tull fan. His dad was a fan and he passed that love on down I suppose. I remember going to school after the bizarre Grammy win and Aaron being so pumped. We were so incredibly young back then, but I was already obsessed with music and so were a lot of my friends. I'm talking like 4th grade here. We would watch MTV after school and loved all the Glam bands we still talk about here today.

On this day in 1989, the very unheavy Jethro Tull win the first Grammy for Best Hard Rock/Metal Performance, beating out Metallica. pic.twitter.com/M4HODTRBnV
