Agreed. It was nice how MTV showed a seperate special with all of the pertinant info that was aired last week during the show. I certainly want to know about the cause, the One Campaign, DATA, etc, but they kept showing the same 20 mintues worth of footage over and over and over again. It's important information that should be aired, but they just did such a shoddy job last week...and their hosts were AWFUL! It was much better this time around. Though, it was still kind of a bummer that they showed some acts (U2, McCartney, Coldplay, Madonna, Mariah Carey, etc) on both VH1 and MTV while there were other artists who weren't shown at all. I don't think they showed a single Canadian act in the 10 hours of footage (come to think of it, there wasn't anything from Paris, Rome, or Moscow, either). I would have liked to have seen Neil Young's performance from Toronto...though it was nice that they showed Orchestra Baobab from Johannesburg!
ETA: I
was bummed that Die Totten Hosen didn't make an appearance from Berlin!
But when did New Hampshire become--Such a backward wasteland of seatbelt hating crazies?...I mean, only 40 people actually live there. The others are just visitors who come for the tax-free liquor and three inches of novelty coastline. John Hodgeman on The Daily Show (1-30-07)
