Entertainment Weekly suggests GN'R could perform at VMA's

[TomFriend]

Mysteron, please say something

Nothing is booked for GN'R as of today.

I would rate an appearance as extremely unlikely.

This does not mean "no".

Probably a last minute agreement, eh?

Probably you're yanking yourself.

Man...what a downer. Seemed like such good timing, too.

Again, I'd LOVE to see GNR at the VMA's, or anywhere for that matter.  Not the end of the world though.  The VMA's haven't been cool since, well since 2002 IMO.  Not much relevance there anymore, at least in the rock world.  I've gotta imagine there's better places to re-emerge.

definitely. Id love to see them there too, but I think it would attract negative press since it would be the second attempt to re emerge at the VMAs and take over the world

Good point, it would be kind of weird for "round 2" to take place 6 years later.  I'd take it though, take my chances with the negative press.  Then again, it's not up to me.

damn guess its going to metallica instead

[grog mug]

I guess the question is, WHAT IS BOOKED FOR GN'R MYSTERON?

[GNRFAN20]

the biggest reason why it isnt happening is because robin isnt in the band

[ben9785]

Fair enough, didn't have any expectations for VMA but hoping anyway..

Mysteron, even if plans aren't set as yet, what is the possibility of any special one off live performances of "Shackler's Revenge" or interviews or any other press to promote the new song?

[Nytunz]

I dont see this VMA as exciting anyways.. But i would struggle through it if GnR were to play.. yes!
There are millions of other ways to promote this comeback release..

Kanyw West as the finale

[faldor]

That pretty much closes out any hope I'd say.  Britney opening, Kanye closing.  I don't think I'd want GNR anywhere in between that mess.

[Jimmy?]

It was fun while it lasted!

[faldor]

I was never expecting them to do the VMA's anyway, come on guys Robin's not even with the band at the moment... it was never gonna happen!

I think some people were hoping 1 of 2 guys may take his place for the night, if not longer.  I won't name any names.

yeah I thought the poster whose name I refrain from naming too , was asking too much of phelps.

Considering Slash is going to be presenting...it's about 100% nothing will happen....

On Thursday, MTV rolled out a long list of additional presenters, who've been confirmed for this weekend's VMAs. They include Jamie Foxx, "Gossip Girl" star Chace Crawford, a very pregnant Ashlee Simpson, John Legend, Kobe Bryant, Leona Lewis, Paris Hilton, Slash, Taylor Swift, Shia LaBeouf and "The Hills" gang ? Lauren Conrad, Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt.

Mabye Velvet Revolver will be performing

 

[TomFriend]

Yup, laugh at your own joke. No-one else will.

[Albert S Miller]

Tonight is the night, the suspense is soon over   I wouldn't necessarily watch under any other circumstances, nor am I convinced Axl will make an appearance, but under the circumstances, you really never no, right?
