Boston Not Much of a Grammy Winner

The closest we came to a big Grammy award this year may have been Berklee grad John Mayer, who pulled in Best Male Pop Vocal Performance for "Say" from Continuum and Best Solo Rock Vocal Performance for "Gravity" from Where the Light Is: Live in Los Angeles. If we're counting Boston collegiates, we could include Bruce Springsteen's Best Rock Song win for "Girls In Their Summer Clothes," since his son's at BC and all. Inexplicably popular UK artists Coldplay, Duffy, and Adele raked in several awards, as did Frenchmen Daft Punk. How did the association ever pass over NKOTB?
