Good for Peter Gabriel

[acroyear]

He's not performing or attending at the Oscars tonite 'cause

1. They reduced the number of nominees for original song from 5 to 3
2. They're going to perform them in one single medley instead of the traditional means of all of them getting their own spot in the night

I'm with him on that: quit short-changing good work, Academy.

I'm still hoping Wall-E wins everything it's up for, of course...

• score
• song
• screenplay
• sound
• sound editing
• animated film

and pretty much could care less about anything else that happens tonite...we may skip it entirely and just watch Ledger's nominated Dark Knight performance instead...or finish the West Wing. :)
