Last year on the 56th Grammy Awards live broadcast, Daft Punk, Nile Rodgers, Pharrell Williams and Stevie Wonder performed an inspired medley which included contemporary hit, "Get Lucky." A little later in the show, Daft Punk, Nile Rodgers and Pharrell Williams won both the Album of the Year and Record of the Year awards. During the acceptance the Daft Punk guys wore their robot outfits, Pharrell Williams had that ridiculous hat on his head, and Nile Rodgers even got to thank some people. Stevie Wonder didn't win a thing. He was not invited onto the stage, and no one thanked him. No one appreciates the classics.
The point is--aside from Stevie Wonder deserving more respect--if you are invited to perform at the Grammy's, it's a good sign. The converse is absolutely true: if you are not performing at that current year's ceremony, you probably aren't walking away with any of the major awards. You may not even win any of the minor ones.
