I truly believe MTV fears music...

Piccu pretty much summed up everything that needed to be said about Live 8, but MTV is by far the worst at everything they do.

All day long while showing Live 8 they never finished one single song that I saw. And the straw that broke the camel's back was showing every single second of Pink Floyd's set...

Right up until the final 60 seconds of Comfortably Numb, their final song of the night.

Right up until lead guitarist David Gilmour was about to set the stage on fire with a stunning guitar solo to end Floyd's set.

Right up until the members of Pink Floyd came together on stage, smiled at each other and bowed to the crowd of 200,000 awe struck fans for the first time in 24 years.

Good one MTV. You missed the highlight of the entire 11 hour concert by 60 seconds. You missed the moment that the world was waiting for.

The biggest feud in all of rock and roll's history was put on hold for 24 glorious minutes and you dropped the ball and proceeded to kick it around.
