If they go on on the VMAs this year and then don't release the album, what are the odds they'd go on again?

No it wasn't awful.
Quote from: 14 Yrs Of Silence on July 20, 2008, 11:03:49 AM
I fell asleep watching the VMAs and woke up to GN'R playing and I honestly wasn't sure if I was dreaming because at that time I had no idea they might play that night. It was amazing.
How did you manage to wake up on time?
The loud monotonous scream at the beginning of WTTJ perhaps?
Yep, that must have been it
I remember I fully woke up half way into WTTJ. Surely nothing else that night was going to grab my attention.
Any surprise or announced performance this year has to come with an announced or very soon to be announced release date in order for people to finally take GN'R and CD seriously.

Even though I loved the 2002 performance, I think Axl has said that he did not. So I'm wondering why this management team would even consider repeating a band promotion (that the other management thought up) that even the band themselves seemed to be unhappy with?

oh ... umm ... whoopie? ... the jonas brothers ... now that's worth sitting thru 2+ hours for

PLEASE IRV PLEASE!!! HAVE MERCY ON US!!! DON'T LET GNR PLAY THE VMAs!!!
As great as it would be to see GNR do anything, it's just not worth the other 2+ hours of the other shit we'd have to sit through!!!!

What about using a short film/music video to introduce the public to CD and/or 'Shackler's Revenge' during the VMAs? Would give GN'R complete control over the 'performance' aspect of it as it would be produced in advance. Another idea would be to perform via satellite somewhere else (perhaps some place like the Grand Canyon or Statue of Liberty or something iconic like that). That would cut down on all that 'traffic' Axl hit on his way to the stage last time.
Just ideas. Personally, I would hope the band would not shy away from performing live on the VMAs again. True...Axl can certainly have a bad night every so often, but even his bad nights are magical. No reason to puss out on the thing you do best...even if 10 million are watching and waiting for you to screw it up.

why should they? I believe Axl referred the appearance on the 2002 Vmas as disastrous because it wasn't well prepared.
I like your ideas. both the SR video debut one and the satellite relay one.

I dont think they'd award that to the entire band, especially given there hasn't been much "Achievement" with the current GNR through the eyes of the general public.

I think they will hold off until the album(s) come out.

MTV VMAs Select Host: Brit Comedian Russell Brand
First, the MTV Video Music Awards revealed their first performer, current RS cover boys the Jonas Brothers. Now, we know who will be hosting the festivities: British comedian/actor Russell Brand. A huge figure in his native England, Brand is best known (perhaps only known) to audiences in the States as the British rocker from Forgetting Sarah Marshall. Besides being a comedian, Brand is also a renowned actor, columnist and radio host. Brand was also once the host of an MTV UK show called Dance Floor Chart, but was fired after showing up to work dressed as Osama bin Laden on September 12th, 2001. Almost seven years after getting the boot, MTV rehires him to host only their most important telecast of the entire year. This year?s VMAs will take place September 7th live from Los Angeles? Paramount Studios.

Good choice I think. He's pretty edgy and quite funny. Should bring something fresh to the show.

Sorry... I LOVE the new band as much as anybody... but the idea that they would ever go up on stage and accept an award that TO DATE would have been entirely earned by the old band is nauseating.... and a terrible blow to the new band's credibility as well. Fortunately, I can't imagine a guy like Tommy Stinson ever agreeing to something like that...

They already have a lifetime achievement award. MTV gave them a Vanguard in 1992.

a friend of mine is a big fan of him. She thinks he's always spot on but I disagree.. maybe it was Russell Grant.

I'd never heard of this guy until this. Someone at another forum posted some YouTube clips of his stand up and I thought it was pretty good actually. Here's hoping that with a edgy host, a possible GNR performance and the hope of a good 25th anniversary show, it's all entertaining for once.
