Robert Plant wins big at the Grammys

Was dumbfounded to see Robert Plant accepting a Grammy last night. Absolutely pleased as could be but very suprised as I didnt think anyone else was listening to Raising Sand. Although I feel the music he was up against was probably more relevant to the mass market I was wow'd to see him win.
One thing I must note is that I would like to smack the confused/dumbfounded look Ms. Krause repeatedly has on her face while she watches Robert speak. First of all he speaks with the utmost clarity and is very easy to follow. Secondly it makes her look like a dumb ass and is quite disrespectful. I hope she realizes she is there because of him, not the other way around.
I am so happy to see that he has allowed himself to age gracefully and carry himself with such deignity. I think it is amazing that he is alive at all with his gray cells intact after the 60's and 70's.
Each line on his gorgeous face has surely been earned!
I, for one, do not miss his trademark voice of his youth. We have that in all of his recordings then. I have come to love his warm, rich voice that he has grown into.
Kuddo's to the one and only Robert Plant!!
