One of the most annoying web pages of 99. The Hampster Dance! Back when Flash was new, and HTML was a mystery to me. Before dennisjudd.com even existed....there was HAMPSTER DAAAAANCE!!!!! I've seen a lot of articles complaining about Live 8 (otherwise known as the help end poverty by giving money to corrupt political establishments who will hoard and waste it for personal gain), and the horrible MTV coverage. Well no shit sherlock, it's MTV....they don't do music anymore, and haven't for quite some time. Which begs the question why they have "VJ's" since there's no V's to J. Everybody's shocked an angry at how they handled the coverage, about how the current puppets talked over the music, and how they cut away for commercials. I'm gonna tell you right now, I don't give two shits. But I do know why they did it that way. Basically broadcasting Live8 was nothing more than a trailer. Like the kind you see in movie theaters. A trailer for what you ask? A trailer for the live 8 special edition DVD with 10% profit going towards ending poverty in Africa , and that feeling that you've really helped somebody by purchasing it. Which you have....only instead of a poor black child in africa who is eating dog shit and dreaming of a spoonful of rice, you've made a lot of rich fat white music exec's and promoters happy. There's gonna be Live8 the dvd, live 8 the behind the scenes commentary, a live 8 box set, and probably a live 8 cd collection. All of these will be available for your christmas dollars, and so you can feel better about yourself for doing something positive. When in reality you've done nothing but hand your brain over for a bunch of media conglomerates to manipulate. MTV dangled the carrot and got everybody so frothing mad they're running faster than ever before.
