Alan86 Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 1 hour ago, MMwhatsername said: Maybe they're not nominated for recent touring, which obviously didn't take place in Europe, but more for their lifework. I mean, they've been around for almost 30 years and still rock the fuck out of each show and are successful in convincing new, young fans of their music. That is quite an achievement and something really, really rare... To me, GD is the best live band and will always be, even if they're in their 90s rocking in their wheelchairs (that would be fun, actually!) They deserve the award 10.000 times. Nah there is a best live act every year . I would rather go to Green Day show over any of the others nominated but MTV have just lot the plot nominating Green Day for this award this year.

Billie Hoe Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 Isn't that Global Icon award big enough news to warrant its own thread? This is huge!!!! I'm so excited for them😍 they deserve this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wretched & Divine Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 I vote over and over again until I get tired of it I honestly don't think it's biased to say Green Day is the best live act in the world, as long as you're not comparing them to someone who puts on a huge stage production and pours a lot into the pure performance aspect (Lady Gaga and Christina Aguilera come to mind from the times I've seen them). Green Day live is a very raw experience, and it doesn't matter if you're seeing them with 50,000 other people as I did the first time I saw them, because somehow they make everyone feel important and included. Awards based on artistry and whatnot are generally very subjective, but they absolutely deserve every single accolade available for their live aspect.

RedundantIdiot Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 Does anyone in the UK know if the EMAs are on the TV here? I'm so pleased GD are getting the global icon award- it's no less than they deserve. I hope they get the best rock and best live awards as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thatsername Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 Ahhh I don't believe they'll come to my continent next weekend and I won't be able to see them!!! The flight is much too long for only one live performance, they should do some surprise shows But I'm so happy for them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digoco Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 Come on guys, this is an MTV award. It's just pure marketing, it doesn't have any value. But I want to see that perfomance, crazy thing in today's MTV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No chance to get any tickets but it could still be worth going to be at the carpet and you never know what happens when they're in town. 4 hours ago, sara_gd said: Yayyy!

Edit: It's sold out Oh well. Now I ponder if I'm actually crazy enough to just go there over the weekend for the slight off-chance that I might see them in the distance. @brain stop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
