Well......the VMA\'s aired here in Holland yesterday and it was ok.
Diddy hosted the show and did a decent job.I always hope that they let someone like Chris Rock or Dave Chapelle host the show.They would probably insult the artists and that always makes for good television.The only funny thing that came from Diddy was the "evolution of his name" skit.
Kelly Clarkson\'s performance was terrible.Sure she has the energy but what good is that if you can\'t sing properly.She has a good voice(because she won American Idol) but when she screams you can\'t really tell.
Green Day is great.I rocked out on Green Day when I was 13 with Dookie.I haven\'t really been listening to them since but I rock out on them again with American Idiot.
American Idiot is great.The songs are great,stucture is good,theme is meaningfull.The performance on the VMA\'s was not so good however I know that they can do much better live.
I saw them on MTV\'s storytellers live and they were great.They have an extra bassist/guitar player live and all the songs sounded exactly like they do on the record.
Coldplay\'s performance was surprisingly weak.Chris Martin\'s voice was no good.This is strange because everytime I see them live on t.v they are amazing.Maybe they were drained from touring.
