So it turns out there was a very good reason for Twenty One Pilots accepting their first ever Grammy in nothing but their underwear.

You already know WHY if you watched them accept the award.  But for those who missed it, here’s the transcript (from Buzzfeed) — and the reason:

The story, it starts in Columbus, Ohio, and it is a few years ago, and it was before Josh and I were able to make money playing music. And I called him up, and I said, “Hey, Josh, you want to come over to my rental house and watch the Grammys?” And he said, “Yeah, who is hanging there?” And I said, “A couple my roommates coming to watch the Grammys with us.” And as we were watching, we noticed every single one of us was in our underwear. And seriously, Josh turned to me — and we were no one at that time — and he said, “If we ever go to the Grammy, if we ever win a Grammy, we should receive it just like this.”

So, not only is this amazing, but I want everyone who is watching at home to know that you could be next. So watch out, okay. Because anyone from anywhere can do anything. And this is that.

Congrats to Tyler & Josh!  Now put some pants back on…you’re award winning musicians now!  — [eric]
