As previously reported, Trent Reznor was pretty angry at the Grammys for cutting his performance with Dave Grohl, Josh Homme and Lindsey Buckingham short in favor of advertisements from sponsors. He tweeted, "Music's biggest night...to be disrespected. A heartfelt F*** YOU guys."
The tweet was meant to be aimed at the Grammys, but Vampire Weekend thought they were the targets of the tweet, according to Radio.com. They had just beat out Nine Inch Nails in the Best Alternative Album category for Modern Vampires of the City. When they saw the Reznor's tweet, they feared he was pissed at them.
"We saw that last night and we were worried for a second that it was about us because Nine Inch Nails were in our category," said Vampire Weekend drummer Chris Thomson. "So we thought, 'Oh, damn. Is Trent Reznor pissed at the Dubs?'"
Of course, the band was not the "YOU guys" Reznor had a hoped to call out, and their fears were put to rest.
