The reaction of the general public will be "hey, it's Axl Rose, what happened to him?". That's about all.

Exactly.? ?Jarmo and I? both posted this yesterday. This thread got to 52 pages due to people creating their own little case scenarios when all we had as fact was that Axl is ONLY presenting.
Therefore, NO AXL BASHING
It's not his fault people speculated bullshit.
Just wait until the show is OVER with to discuss what he did and be HAPPY with that.
Why should we be HAPPY if he
only
introduces The Killers or whatever it is he's scheduled to do? ?And what if he agreed to do something really lame? ?We shouldn't bash him for that?
THIS IS AXL and we, his fans, deserve nothing less than something "AXL-ish" from him!!! ?We expect the unexpected from him!!! ?The fans of all those other performers/presenters can be HAPPY with
only
what their person is 'scheduled' to do ..........
BUT NOT US!!!
We want AXL BEING AXL!!!

Normally that is my argument too... but this is different man. People are getting themselves all worked up about this when all the guy is commited to just presenting. Jesus, let him have his fun.

Axl having fun can only be a good thing for everyone.?

Id like to see the ratings figures for this years VMAs compared to the last 10 years.?
Considering every crazed GNR fan on all these message boards will be watching from the pre show to the post show, you gotta figure theres gonna be a spike.
? MTV must know the rabidness of the GNR fans.? Anyone here do any kind of Nielsen ratings research? might be an interesting thing to look into
I could possibly check them... I wont get to look at them until Tuesday at the earliest, but I doubt I could do it on Tuesday as it will be catchup day.? Also, its proprietary data and if I get caught leaking out numbers that aren't supposed to be leaked I could be... well fired.? I will see what I can do.?
Ratings are published in major newspapers everyday
What?? ?Show me a newspaper that has specific demographical ratings that are published everyday.
If any ratings are provided in a major newspaper everyday then they are ratings provided by whoever aired them. Believe it or not most networks do not want some one from another network posting their ratings (especially if they did poorly) around the internet for anybody to see. It is considered proprietary information. Ratings are used for internal decisions and are not meant for the public to see
unless if marketing does some bullshit "we are the #1 most watched network in america" which usually isnt true anyways. ?
I can get the ratings Friday morning. Don't have access to last years to compare it to. But I can say the amount of ppl watching purely for GnR will have very little impact. How many GnR fans in US will watch only for Axl, 5,000?? 20,000 max?? Out of what, probably 5-10 million viewers.
As for 'Propietary information' It's not. While they do subscribe to Nielsons ratings, it normally is let public and Networks use it to brag when selling advertising.

I mean, would I like him to do something unexpected and that pisses the censors off. ?Sure! ?But if he doesn't I won't get annoyed at him for it. ?Remember when he did the 'Win Axl's Condo' Contest for MTV? ?He did the commercial the way the producers asked him to do it and it was fine. ?Its not like this is the first time he would have ever cooperated with MTV or any kind of authority. ?I just hope that he doesn't look nervous when he presents and makes it obvious that he is reading the script. ?

Those arent going to be the official national ratings. But if you want to look at those then go for it. If some one remembers the VMA schedule for the past few years (2002 specifically) I can compare at some point.
