VMA 06

[Thorazine Shuffle]

Wow, we're getting the VMA threads early this year!

People who have been around this forum for awhile will understand this.

The only reason I started this one is because there is so much action this year (as opposed to the last 4).

I'm just having some fun.

If there will be an emergance of GNR on MTV, then this would be the year and the VMAs would be the show.

Since GNR will be heading back to the States sometime around September, I was thinking maybe they'd "redeem" themselves on the VMAs this year.

I thought the were going to head back to the States in August ?

I think its a very good possibility they show up this yr. If Axl mean swhat he says and the album is gonan drop in the fall, then the 1st single will be coming out right around the vmas. And guess where the best place to debut ur new single live and prepare for ur new album...u guessed it the vmas....

a nice better,single, twat medley would be steller....

but hopefully they move the vmas back to nyc. cause its horrile in miami. Liek the stage setup and the shows blow.....plus its been dropping in the ratings....must be the music...rap overload....time to rock.....

gnr need to do that this yr and have 1 of those big banners drop down and have the release date on it.....

Oh I wasn't taking offense, I just wanted to explain why I started it.

Personally though, if GNR have a US tour lined up ?before the VMAs, Id rather see them not do the show. ?MTV isn't all about the music anymore, and I dont want to see the media take any cheap shots at GNR after the show like in 02. ?Although it would be good publicity to support a tour bc then everyone in the US would see it. ?But if they wanted to be on TV charge like 15-20 bucks for a PPV of the hammerstein shows. ?IDK

[pasnow]

I dunno, I don't think it'd be a very good idea. Kindof a 'Been there done that' type thing. I think we'd all love to see them, but most music fans would simply think "Oh, didn't they do that already."

While this fall is alot different than the 02 tour, as video clips & performances can be seen online, and can vouch that this band puts on a good show. I think it'd be better to do something new. Maybe "Saturday Night Live's" season premiere.

But yeah, I'm sure MTV would love to have them!!

[Tomorrows]

Id actually prefer an unveiling of a new music video as oppose to a medley performance ala 2002.

[SourBaby]

I don't think VMA want's them.

Why would they? GNR isn't GNR unless it's got Slash, Izzy and Duff....

[pasnow]

MTV would be smart to have GnR open... Then at the end, have a surprise performance by VR!!

(And for those who think GnR should close out... no way would Axl play after NOT being informed VR would be there, hence have GnR play first.)

And you people have yet to found a method of reason and understanding...

[younggunner]

and they never will...dont even bother

and then have izzy make a guest appearance and have a full reunion of the original band (minus adler of course)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

that would be perfect for the VMA's...how could they say no???

You know Axl has an open contract with mtv, when ever he wants to do the VMAs he can.
also if they do it, just do one new song, no melody this time. Just do the first single.

This is news to me.

[Mr.Intensity]

It would only be worth it if he played the first single.........

to go on again and look like a cover band would be dumb or too do a medley....

[A Private Eye]

If the album is coming out in the autumn then by september GNR (should) be in full CD promotion. A return to the VMA's might just work if CD really is just round the corner. An old song followed by a new would work for me, perhaps jungle as it's a good opener for the general public because everyone knows it, then hit them with the first single whatever that may be.

If GNR want to go on the VMA's providing they have something to promote I'm sure MTV will be more than happy, the last time GNR were on the VMA's it broke all sorts of viewing records, I'm sure MTV will want a piece of that again. ?

Already done.


What do you think da_pope?

Here is another topic that belongs in dead horse,  yet the relevent stuff like that I or others post gets deleted...

GNR at VMAs...Wow   how about your next topic be

Should Axl release "better" as a single,

you know so we can keep with the ongoing theme of repeating no threating, non-abusive Axl Rose comments....

No it didn't...

GNR was not responisble for any viewing records.....
