Well, they got Fergie out of the way. Is that song actually a hit?

― Marmot (marmotwolof), Thursday, 31 August 2006 21:45 (eighteen years ago) link

sure, why not.

― Maria T Sciarrino (theoreticalgirl), Thursday, 31 August 2006 21:52 (eighteen years ago) link

hi mts.

I hear Axl is going to show up, supposedly.

― Marmot (marmotwolof), Thursday, 31 August 2006 22:05 (eighteen years ago) link

Man, that new My Chemical Romance song was boring. MCR singer dude's new haircut makes him look like Brian Dennehy. And they had A CHILDREN'S CHOIR DRESSED LIKE SKELETONS.

― Marmot (marmotwolof), Thursday, 31 August 2006 22:41 (eighteen years ago) link

i am starting to doze off during this.

Show starts proper in a few minutes. Xtina's much mailgned "blaccent" has finally disappeared completely. Not a trace. Or maybe it's been gone for a while, it's been a while since I've seen an interview with her.

*maligned, haha.

― where are you taking us on this godforsaken cruise? (theoreticalgirl), Thursday, 31 August 2006 23:20 (eighteen years ago) link

― where are you taking us on this godforsaken cruise? (theoreticalgirl), Thursday, 31 August 2006 23:22 (eighteen years ago) link

UGH MY HUMPS JUST WON

― where are you taking us on this godforsaken cruise? (theoreticalgirl), Thursday, 31 August 2006 23:27 (eighteen years ago) link

― Fevil, Thursday, 31 August 2006 23:29 (eighteen years ago) link

OK MY HUMPS JUST WON. LET'S JUST GIVE AWARDS TO THE ABSOLUTE WORST SONGS OF THE PAST YEAR.

― Fevil, Thursday, 31 August 2006 23:51 (eighteen years ago) link

Hey, the Bob Dylan iPod commercial. Silverman was completely unfunny.

― Marmot (marmotwolof), Thursday, 31 August 2006 23:57 (eighteen years ago) link

Please tell me Jessica Simpson ad-libbed "I can just push my tush." Someone actually wrote that for her to say?

All American Reject d00d was hammered. He dropped his moon man's flag just like Pink did.

― Marmot (marmotwolof), Friday, 1 September 2006 00:59 (eighteen years ago) link

I still can't get over Jared Leto being an emo star now. What is he, 35?

I got to see Sixx on the replay! They didn't cut him out (yet).
He actually plugged his website before the cops grabbed him:
http://www.mtv6000.com/
It seems to be down at the moment, I'm sure his server was bombarded.

― sleeve (sleeve), Friday, 1 September 2006 07:42 (eighteen years ago) link

I liked how the camera quickly pulled back so you couldn't see him gettin tackled by the cops... the abrupt cutaway from Jack White/Billy Gibbons doin "Cheap Sunglasses" was fucking LAME. Also was Lou Reed's gasmask stage backdrop designed by Grant Morrison? wtf

― Shakey Mo Collier, Friday, 1 September 2006 19:34 (eighteen years ago) link

How was OK Go? I was obsessed with that treadmill video for ages.

― Roz, Friday, 1 September 2006 19:47 (eighteen years ago) link

They didn't play, they just did a live recreation of the video while the song played over the PA. It was kind of cool for what it was, nobody tripped or anything.

― Marmot (marmotwolof), Friday, 1 September 2006 19:59 (eighteen years ago) link

Haven't Avenged Sevenfold been a band for like 10 years now?

― nklshs (nklshs), Friday, 1 September 2006 20:03 (eighteen years ago) link

likewise has Panic at the Disco been around for 15 years?!? I coulda sworn they said something to that effect in their acceptance speech.

all the goth-punk-emo fashion/angular haircuts were totally ridiculous.

― Shakey Mo Collier, Friday, 1 September 2006 20:05 (eighteen years ago) link

Shakey all those panic at the disco guys are like 15 years old!
(well, 19)

― Marmot (marmotwolof), Friday, 1 September 2006 20:13 (eighteen years ago) link

Well, they got Fergie out of the way. Is that song actually a hit?
