Here Today... Gone To Hell!

It is a rumor i read in a german? music magazine. I think it was musikexpress.
What do you think about? I dont believe it because most of them are doing their solo stuff.
Maybe Axl will be there to talk about Chinese Democracy who knows...
Tell me if anyone heard about this to.
Mr Deluxe

Can you put some link or something? I dunno about this rumor...

I don't know if GN'R will play the 2004 award shows, but I bet this topic gets locked.

You can connect the magazine here.
www.musikexpress.de
There is nothing about this on their site it was in their mag.

Germany? Sorry, I can't understand anything.

Mr. Del, translation please??

isn?t there a rumour that gn?r will play that fucking vma thing every year???  ;)

mtv sucks big time tho and i hope gn?r will never have anything to do with that piece of shit channel again.... although i understand if they do, sort of, to grab a hold of all the teenyboppers or whatever thats out there lol...

MTV sucks HUGE COCK  :drool: tune into Vh1.   NOTE: this is not an ad!  ;)

Agreed, but the amount of exposure Axl and GNR can get at the VMA's with an album slated for release in November would be incredible.

I don't know what to think, because GN'R has gotten a lot of attenion recently. But your right, MTV SUCKS and Vh1 and vh1 classic both ROCK!!!

It was just a matter of time before someone said this. I expected it a lot earlier though  ::)

GN'R will be at the 2009 VMAs. I was first!  :hihi:




/jarmo

Maybe it will go hand in hand with a tour.

Maybe he will present??  But I'm still putting odds on a Ad of some sort.  I.E. Oh My God from '99

Did they ever advertise OMG outside of the End of Days advertising?  I didn't realize they did that for just a single.  I think Axl is just doing what he wants on his own time.  He doesn't want to be involved in the media circus like he once was.

I really doubt it you know because they are all touring but there was a rumor going round that we would get an update on Chinese Democracy at the end of August

you are forgetting that there is a leap year in between, so actually it's 2010.

the other members have solo gigs around the same time, i think even on the same day.  I'm sure the most that we'll get is some form of an announcement.  Maybe Axl might be on as a presenter but I think that's way too risky.  The crowd may or may not react well.

The crowd would react great if Axl walked out

damnit he beat me to it :rofl: :rofl:

I doubt any member will be there.  But hopefully they will plug a chinese demecracy release date.  This would be great for exposure considering the amount of people that would be watching.

MTV just had a VMA special on this years upcoming VMA's and near the end they said something like "you never know what to expect at the VMA's or in the upcoming year" and then they showed Axl. They then said "and you prob wont see" and they showed Ricky Martin. Some kind of subliminal messaging....prob not, but its fun to mention

They were probably just showing an Axl referrence to support the idea that even the most unlikely event imaginable is possible at the VMA's...wouldn't read anything into it

Not to be pestimistic, but to teeny boppers the 2002 performance was a joke, I know we all love Axl but I dont know if the general public would be excited to see them. If Lars is in the VMA audience I am sure he will go WILD if Axl comes out.

What I can see from the 2002 performance was that the crowd was into it why wouldnt they be into it again espeacially with the resurgance of popularity in GNR this past year with Greatest Hits and all tthe VH1 shows, I think they would get a good reception.  I just dont think they will be there

I thought the crowd reaction was ok, nothing too over the top, but after everyone seen them on TV with the audio problems they all think Axl cant sing. My friends who are casual GnR fans didnt like it. Besides the fact the members have other things going on I dont think they were invited back.

I think GNR could get a fairly strong receiption given all the recent attention GNR has received.  But I also think that the average joe doesn't really care that much about GNR.  I've had a lot of casual listeners comment that Axl can't sing anymore after hearing them on the VMAs.  If GNR does resurface at the VMAs, I hope Axl will be able to prove these casual listeners wrong. 

I doubt Axl would force Tommy and Dizzy to drop all their plans for 1 gig right when they both are gearing up to hit the road nonstop for 2 months...but I believe this album is close to coming out, at least the closest its been in 2 years, so seeing something GnR related wouldnt surprise me.

I was kind of on the fence about writing this... but, if GNR did play again hypothetically on this years VMA's, I know that instead of the normal Fuck Yea GNR is going to kick fucking ass (like I would normally do), I would be silently thinking "God please Axl, don't fuck up. "

It is always great seeing Axl regardless though, and of course I hope they will be there along with the release date announcement.  But obla di obla da...

We will see no such thing this fine year, but GNR will be there en masse to collect all their moonmen next fall....bah-lee dat....

What issue of ME is it in? I subscribe to that mag and I haven't seen anything to that nature in the August issue.

One more time, with feeling:

They are not currently slated to play the '04 VMA's.? At this time there does not appear to be any incarnation of "The Frogs" on the list, either.

Will they be there in the audience?

Maybe....Maybe not.? I have no information on the attendees (meaning the "red carpet runners").

lol frogs....frogs are funny...hopping around burping on some leaf floating in a pond.

...damn frogs are trippy

In a commercial for the VMA's I could have swore I saw a quick flash of Axl's face - can someone confirm this???

I was at a bar and really bellieve I saw this...no rumor...no one post wonder....no conspiracy intended.......and even though I am in Canada...I saw this in a bar with hacked US signals......before you trace the IP... I totally saw a flash of axl with a bandana - younger years...... and by all means I am not trying to read into this because I don't think they will appear - did anyone else see this - or  was I hallucinating?

The volume was out - and could hear the commercial......

Help?????  ???

ill check out mtv (god help me) for a few hours and see if i see it,  I know that in the VMA 2004 uncensored program they have a peice of about 4 or 5 mins dedicated to gnr's 02 performance

funny shit :rofl: i find it hilerious that they where slated as the frogs

If its the same thing I saw, I believe they said something along the lines of "expect the unexpected" and showed a pic of axl, implying that the 2002 performance was unexpected by most people, and more unexpected things will probably happen on future shows.

just saw is! a clip of Axl. Im starting to belive we will get to hear something.

When is The VMA?

Forget it guys... A short clip of Axl means nothing....

Read the Dizzy interview... He knows nothing at all, about C.D....

There will be no gnr at the vma's this year (I thought we did this rumor a while ago)

alright jarmo... this thread can be closed now  ;)

I think if Mysteron's convinced enough that GNR won't be there, a week before the show that he subtitles the thread 'False Rumor', we know our answer. I for one won't be tuning in.

I can see the logic behind the rumor

Tommy does Cali dates on 28th and 30th Aug but not on the 29th. Dizzy does Cali dates on 25-27th Aug but then there is a gap. And BT have cancelled their tour (as far as I know). So everyone is available and Tommy and Dizzy are in the Cali area

The official word though is that they are not at the VMA's.

so it still might be a possibility ? ???

I didn't say that. I was only pointing out why people are probably thinking it might happen. Thinking out loud to myself :smoking:

damn it!!
they really need do something now!
well, the VMAs are always worth a watch anyways

Which would make sense....except the VMA's are in Miami this year. :)

So, being in Cali around the 29th wouldn't be of much help.   :hihi:

True  :hihi:

Not that I'm calling anyone a liar, but I really don't think MTV would divulge in any top-secret performances. It's just something we have to wait and see. There's a very good chance they'll be there, but there's also a very good chance they won't be there. Only time will tell...

From what I can see, the performers at this years VMA's arn't exactly 'exciting'! lol! Who's gonna do the big finale? Last year it was Metallica (another fav band of mine), and of course the year fore was GN'R... what was 2001 anyone? ;D
