Last time I watched the Grammys was 1989. They started a new category, Best Heavy Metal. Metallica who was probably the top heavy metal band at the time, presented the award to the winner, Jethro Tull. That's correct, Jethro Tull. It's obvious the people voting didn't know prog-rock from metal. Haven't watched it since. As a side note, in 1991 when Metallica won for their Black Album, they thanked Jethro Tull for not releasing an album that year.
