The ONLY Axl @ The 2006 MTV VMAs thread

[Lara]

I have to get some sleep - I'm getting up early for work tomorrow.

I bet this thread will be 100+ pages long tomorrow morning. ?

I just hope there'll be a good reason for that! ?

[flickn]

not to ?continuely ranting but..



1.No official website , pulling any kind of gnr publicity , videos media lyrics you name it .
2.A north american tour with no new album
3.Showing up to introduce a rock band , that nobody gives afuck about , and not a word about CD

......Can some long time die hard fan please explain the logic here ?

......Can some long time die hard fan please explain the logic here ?

Patience.

i think this trumph's mtv's advertising effort , the goal is to get people to watch the show, and look at the commcericals.now if we ?know already that Axl is only going to introduce some third rate reality show wanne be rock group , thank god for youtube because I am not watching.MTv can go pick advertising dollars elsewhere.


...Axl is going to just show up , to introduce a rock band performing.....gimme a fucking break , that is pretty lame even on his part.Here is another golden opprtunity for him to cashin on Cd , and he is gonna fuck it up by just introducing a band ?


...Merck , have you bumped your fucking head and went overboard to allow this this is even more stupider then A North American tour with no new album support .

haha........I love honesty....we'll see what happens

I don't think there is anyone on here that could disagree with this. Its going to be beyond lame if that is what he just ends up doing.

It couldn't get anymore lame if that's all that happens...

[mega_music]

This will be an interesting evening!
I know I should not expect anything, but I guess I will be a little dissapointed if he just gives out  a award

It should be intresting and the flood gates will open on the boards, when the VMA's start.

......Can some long time die hard fan please explain the logic here ?

Soon is not the word!

If this is all that is in store...I would honestly rather Axl didnt even go on there at all.

Agreed...

[the dirt]

Axl will probably have mic problems when he goes up 

[jarmo]

Axl makes an appearance at one of the biggest musical events of the year (yeah, the channel might suck, but the VMAs are big) and still you whine...

You'd rather be back in 1997? ?

You're the ones hyping this. You're the ones building expectations. You're the ones who'll feel cheated if Axl does what MTV says he's supposed to. Present!

I would piss myself laughing, if he gets up to a podium and before he talks he starts fucking with and earpiece, and says fuck this, and leaves.

guys come on, your getting beside yourselves.
something has got to go down. he would not do this simply for pr, it's not axl.

[GUNNER]

There's any link to see it online? 

[flickn]

Who's whining brother? Saying its stupid shit for Axl to go on tonight to simply present an award or introduce some powder puff isnt whining. Its backing our boy who should use MTV and this airtime. Not let the machine use him.

[RageNirvanaNIN]

lol my final theory

"MR AXL ROSEEEEEEE"

AXL " Alright guys I'm here to introduce one of the greatest rock bands in the world today , I've been friends with them for the longest time , here is Red Hot Chili Peppers"....

CROWD: "WOOOOOOO"

AXL : " Oh Almost forgot FREE CHINESE DEMOCRACY CD'S FOR ALL "

thus him and RHCP begin to chunk cd's into the crowd. 

In reality he has to be doing more then just present , have we forgotten that this is Axl Rose people he does not just show up , he makes it known. I mean everytime axl was there something went down , preformance or a fight lol. Is this time to settle a fued with scott? Nah

Time to speak about old gnr? Nah

Talk about slash? Izzy? Duff? Steven? Nah

Although this was the year ( 20 years ago )  and the month that GNR began recording AFD... and Live Like A Suicide was released...and the year they got signed... This is a pretty big deal..

Nu Gnr talk? Probably...Hopefully


something will happen tonight...

[illusionone]

It seems that some of the fans in GNR nation need to step back and take GNR for what it is.

If Axl comes out and introduces a band - Great

If he plays a song while there - Even Better

If he sits in the crowd and watches and does nothing - his choice.

We really shouldn't get pissed when Axl decides to do things one way or the other - we should just enjoy what he does when he does it. ?I for one am just going to sit back and enjoy the ride - damn it's fun

Remember Axl doesn't owe us anything - if you feel that way you are truley disillusioned and need to sit back and rethink things.

I belive the only thing their showing online while the show is on is a backstage broadcast, thats what their advertising anyway, get uncensored backstage access on your computer at mtv overdrive while you watch the show on your TV. ?
