Striking writers guild members have decided against picketing the upcoming Grammy Awards, but the Writers Guild of America's board of directors has yet to grant the music industry show a waiver that would allow its members to work on the ceremony, the guild said Tuesday.
The guild previously said it was unlikely to grant the Recording Academy a waiver for the Feb. 10 show, the music industry's most important event, set to be broadcast live on CBS from Los Angeles.
Recording Academy President Neil Portnow has insisted that a full-scale Grammys will continue no matter what - and Beyonce and the Foo Fighters announced that they still plan to perform at the event.
