fuse is alright imx has had some good guests on it like they had straylight run on back in october, alkaline trio, finger eleven, they all preform too... the best show i saw on fuse was mixtape: indie rock, just a bunch of indie rock vids, ended with moneen, good stuff, although it seems like they try to put in moe rap everyday.

MTV2 has been around since 1995 or 1996. I watched Beavis And Butthead this weeknd on MTV2. I don't think it;s right that MTV is throwing all their old shows to MTV2. But I enjoyed watching B&B. This year alone, MTV2 has aired MTV Cribs Marathon and The Osbournes. I only watch Headbanger's Ball and Subterranean for my music. But I mostly watch FUSE. And watch videos on the internet. My dream for awhile is that I want to start my own music video station, fuck corporate shit. Just have it on cable access or somethin or the internet. Start off my showing some local band videos from the tri-state area and beyond. Who's with me?!

They have another station to play shows on why are they playing shows in MTV2? WHy have 2 when they can just pay for one? And if they like rap so much why doen't they go like Much Music and get a rap station like Vibe?

There already *is* an MTV rap station. That doesn't stop them from playing nothing but rap on MTV, MTV2, and MTV Rap (or whatever the stupid thing's called... I dunno, cos I don't have it) all at the same time. :uh: Being American sucks. Bad.

Yeah, they dropped the MTVX station, which was all rock music, for the rap station.
I faced death. I went in with my arms swinging. But I heard my own breath and had to face that I'm still living. I'm still flesh. I hold on to awful feelings. I'm not dead... My chest still draws breath. I hold it. I'm buoyant. There's no end.

MTV2 is still basically all music.......if you would've turned to MTV2 before last weekend, for several days they were advertising some shorta "weekend long cartoon" type of stupid thing.
