Adele pretty much swept the Grammy’s last night, winning all six categories she was nominated for, while Foo Fighters took all the Rock awards. This was the first year the show included a dance tent outside the venue featuring the Electronic acts like Skrillex (who took home two awards) and Deadmau5. Bon Iver won Best New Artist, even though his first album came out four years ago, and Best Alternative album, The Beach Boys reunited with Foster The People and Maroon 5, Nicki Minaj gave a bizarre performance and Chris Brown was all over the show, performing three times and winning Best R&B Album.
