Bon Iver Give The Finger To The Grammys 

Four-time Grammy nominees Bon Iver turned down an offer to perform at the show this year.

Bon Iver is the least-known artist to be nominated in the top categories and would get help from a live performance. But... frontman Justin Vernon thinks the Grammys are "ridiculous".

Vernon told Billboard, "We wanted to play our music, but we were told that we couldn't play. We had to do a collaboration with someone else. And we just felt like it was such a large stage.

"We're getting nominated for this record that we made, me and Brian [Joseph] and a bunch of our f--ng friends, and we were given accolades for it. And all of a sudden we were being asked to play music that had nothing to do with that. We kind of said 'f--k you' a little bit and they sort of acted like they wanted us to play, but I don't think they wanted us to play."

Bon Iver is nominated for Best New Artist, Song of the Year, Record of the Year and Best Alternative Album.
