Sly Stone, isn’t he dead?

Apparently not. Finally a reason for me to watch the Grammy Awards. But theres always a catch:

Ron Roecker, a spokesman for the Recording Academy, wouldn’t confirm that the reunion is on the Grammy-night schedule, which already includes an all-star tribute to Sly and the Family Stone. The tribute — featuring John Legend, Maroon 5, will.i.am of the Black Eyed Peas and Steven Tyler of Aerosmith, among others, performing a medley of Sly classics — was announced yesterday by the academy. (All the artists appear on a Sly and the Family Stone tribute album that will be released the day before the Grammys.)

$10 says somehow Sly gets caught up in a performance of ‘My Humps’ with Fergie and humanity succumbs to the cultural vacuum created by the performance, all on live network television.
