Spectacular Isle of MTV on the Granaries
The most spectacular edition of the Isle of MTV concerts in Malta is being held tonight.
An enthusiastic crowd estimated at well over 40,000 is enjoying Malta's biggest free open-air party to the sounds of Parade, Far East Movement, LMFAO and Snoop Dogg - and a spectacular light and laser show.
Snoop Dogg arrived late - apparently because his band missed a connecting flight - but he was the star of the show. He ended his performance by thanking the fans and delivered a message of peace. He also said he will return.
Pictures by Darrin Zammit Lupi show Snoop Dogg, LMFAO and Far East Movement on stage.

The people prattling on about patients in boffa, those that remain, clearly have never spent more than 15 minutes in any hospital. Stop using the elderly as a symbol for your negativity, its ageist.

Nice show, but can't we have a Maltese act too?, we have some pretty talented bands here would be nice to push them on the isle of mtv stage which is broadcasted on the mtv channel.

Sure, why not? Now go put on your best suit and have a chat with the MTV board.

It was spectacular. Sincere gratitude to MTV for hosting the the show in Malta, a BIG thank you to Sponsors and MTA. It is Malta's biggest free open air party and a huge amount of tourists were there to appreciate the "musical showcase". I'm sure that more maltese are now shuffling (walk without lifting your feet or with clumsy steps).....brilliant performance by LMFAO.

Get a life all! These superstars dominated the granaries yesterday! EVEN your 80s music

all these comments are something to have been expected. most grumbled about the noise - well as rightly pointed out we live in noise poluted island - sick people are sick not just at night but all day...nevertheless no one bothers to complain on their behalf for the noise genereated during the day. last but not least, it was a great pleasure seeing the very big crowd enjoying themselves...as i did with my friends. so, please bring on some more of these events.

The worst Isle of MTV show during these last four years. This show was packed with underaged persons and mature persons who really appreciate good music started to leave the graneries after an hour. My advice is either to enahnce the level of Isle of MTV or else to stop organising such an event. This is not supposed to be a kids event.
John Scerri
Jul 1st 2011, 13:17
I am over 50 .
I left after it finished.
I was there from the beginning . I enjoyed it .
So according to you ...I am immature and I dont appreciate good music ???
What do you classify as good music?
If one is locked on a certain generie of music and never challenges oneself to experience and appreciate other styles may it be pop, rap, house , dance, electronic,underground, rock, soft rock,latino,disco, jazz one will remain in stagnant.
Not a Kids event you say?? ....Kids can be influenced at home .It is up to the parents to monitor what they do on internet, what to see on U-tube, Facebook and other sites which are easily accessible as well as TV.
a few F... words will not influence them...The increasing egoistic and egocentric society we live in will mould their future.
Mr daniel Gordon
Jul 1st 2011, 13:26
Why is it not a kids event? Its a free, open air concert for all to enjoy.
If you dont like it , stay at home and put a CD on.

Why cant't people just be positive? The show was amazing...it was so nice seeing so many people together enjoying music while there are so many bad things happeneing around us everyday. We are so lucky to be recognised as being a suitable island to host Isle of MTV for 4 years in a row, and we should be proud! I was there till 12pm, it was still packed with people of all ages....and who said it was not meant to be a kids event? Did they have to present ID cards???
Mr Keith Muscat
Jul 2nd 2011, 02:40
does being positive mean 'never criticize' and 'accept everything' ?
I'm sorry but everyone has the right to express an opinion. If you don't like it, ignore it, just like I ignored the music played on the granaries yesterday!

Why did you go? I didn't because I knew what the line up was...but let others who enjoyed it have their time.

I have taken the advice of one contributor, and read about snoopy dog before commenting . I've looked him up in Wikipedia. Follow link below, and then scroll down to "legal issues". This is the kind of person that we are presenting to the young generation as idols. Then we complain about increasing anti social behavious, and soaring criminality. The authorities look only at the "Excellent Exposure'" Malta gets through these events. But the end never justifies the means.

Jul 1st 2011, 12:57
This is quite irrelevant though. Take John Lennon and Jim Morrison, both were drug users and yet can one deny their talent? The same goes for Snoop Dogg. As youngsters we don't go to watch him because of his attitude, or because all of us aspire to be like him but because he's a great entertainer and a great artist in his genre. We don't admire people for their personal choices but for their talent.
Mr Joseph N. Attard
Jul 1st 2011, 13:55
Irrelevant? You think so? Mr Vella, you sound as being a responsible person, and it appears that you can sort the wheat from the chaff. Can everybody else do that, though? Do not most youths associate one's "talent" with one's lifestyle? Do you not notice blatant peer imitation? And by the way, a criminal record as long as my arm, including arrest for alleged murder, is quite different from one for only drug use.

How about some 21st century rock bands (as in they are still famous and playing music and preferably not older than the old maltese buses) for Isle of MTV 2012?
I know a lot of People would go for Green Day, Linkin Park, Paramore or Muse.
Just suggesting :))

The 'bad attitude' that many commentators below have made mention to in reference to Snoop Dogg is laughable. Snoop Dog is one of the world's greatest and most well known rappers of all time. Yes, it's a shame that a lot of these public personas have this ego issue and slight arrogance, but arriving on stage a few minutes late doesn't even compare to some of the antics of other artists. He put on an incredible show. As for the complaints about Isle of MTV 'disturbing the peace'... really? ONE day of the year we get to have a gathering of some of the biggest foreign performers, a show that is offered to us for no fee. Fans of these artists can pay up to 150 pounds to see these performers in other countries. Suffice to say I don't know how many times my family has been kept up by the fireworks in Zebbug cause of yet another religious feast. Having Isle of MTV in Malta is a privilege in my opinion. Yesterday was one of the best nights of my life! hah! SNOOOOOOOOOP!

The concert was awesome
The only things that I disliked that to buy a drink I had to fork out 10 euros, even though I wa son my own - Rip off and it was dissapointing that LMFAO and Snop dogg told everyone to pull out the middle finger - not sure whats so cool about that
Also, liked the originality that some people came up with, in particular there was one guy in the crowd who dressed up as the LMFAO robot and it was great :-)

It is good to have these activities, it is fun to see Floriana and Valletta in party atmosphere but I do hope that MTV won't ever bring any more pigs on two legs anymore.
Mr S Sammut
Jul 1st 2011, 10:35
Unfortunately, I am seeing lots of "non-sense" and igorant comments!!! For all who did not knew who is Snoop Dog and do not know anything about Gangster Rap , RNB and RAP! Snoop Dog is one oe best and top Rappers around!! Together wirh Ememen, 50 Cent ETC. He gave a hell of a show!! I am really happy he made it to Malta and we had the occoasion to see him! So all those who are complaining, please read about the Artist before commenting!! The only complaint I have it the lack of policeman directing traffic to get of Floriana,,, it was a bit a caos! Otherwise well done!!! to MTA and MTV.. Hope this is not the last year....
Ms B Cassar
Jul 1st 2011, 11:51
I am really happy he made it to Malta and we had the occoasion to see him! - yeah rite and to listen to him speaking that bad english and those bad words, to see his arrogant and stupid attitude and to see his missing six pack show while walking barechested at MIA. U hallina sur sammut. Ma fih xejn x'tara, la hu helu, la fih gisem u wisq inqas ghandu xi specjalita x'joffri. Hlief junk ma johrog minn halqu. In-nies "artisti" li semmejt int fil-kumment ma jaghmlu xejn hlief jaghtu ezempju hazin kontinwament lit-teenagers ta llum li sfortunatament jaghmluhom idols taghhom u jikkupjaw il-HMERIJIET li jaghmlu dawn in-nies. Mur ara l-ahhar video ta Eminem - hlief speci ta pornografija ma tarax fih u jekk tara il-kondotta ta dawn in-nies tinduna li il-hotel preferit taghhom hu il-habs ghax kumbinazzjoni dehlin u hergin minn hemm. KOLLHA QEGHDIN SEW!
Mr S Sammut
Jul 1st 2011, 13:18
Dear Ms B Cassar, I suggest before to attend to such events is to first educate yourself about the artists. and if if it is not music to your ears, I suggest you do not attend in the first place! I am not promting the bad words or whatever.. however we live in the real world and these artists have made huge success and have billions of fans around the world!... Nowadays even children computer games contain bad language!! I am not promoting it but it is has become a reality!!!!!!!!

Ms B Cassar jekk ma tifimx u qatt ma smajt rap jekk jogbok taddiex kummenti bla sens. Jekk tfittex tinduna kemm awn artisti b'diski li jamlu sens.
Tupac Shakur - Dear Mama, Changes, Ghetto Gospel and Keep your Head Up huma ftit diski ta artist kbir li il-bierah Snoop Dogg li huwa dak ir-rapper li ijad sew amel tribute ghalih.....
Alex Cutajar
Jul 1st 2011, 14:14
Ms B Cassar. Gangster rap is like that . Jekk ma tifimx titkellimx, u jekk jogbok thallatx il hass mal basal. Irrispetta il- gosti ta' l-ohrajn. Seriously He gave a very good show, ma tistax tghid li ma jkantax tajjeb, he's one of the best rappers around. So PLEASE go home and listen to music of your liking, i really hate seeing comments like these. Very Immature of you.

I sometimes work at night. Due to the 3rd world-rate transport system and all the morons hogging the buses, I couldn't get to work last night.
Who is going to compensate me for the gross irresponsibility carried out by the organisers, ministry of tourism etc.

MTV show was superb!! There is nothing to explain, if u do not like it do not watch just let others have fun.
I am assuming that that you have never been to party organized by the maltese promoters where all the present are drugged. ( by the way and the promoters are making a lot of money )
I've been to MTV and I saw no drugs.

Below were two comments which personally I questions several times, why was the 'Frontuspizju' of the Floriana parish church lit, there was no religious function or any particular religious occastion, and if the law states that during Festas no petards and noise after 11.00 p.m. does this law exclued such functions. At grandharbour area festa petards are prohibited after 11.00 p.m. because ' there are people who need to rest and beacuse of the ill people at Boffa Hospital' what about the noise of this activity in such densly populated area....or.........
Dan Huggins
Jul 1st 2011, 08:53
I think that all the people who are being negative towards this event should stop. this event has raise the profile of your beautiful country and you should be very proud of that. Maybe at last Malta will receive the credit it deserves for being such a wonderful place will be recognized internationally once again as the treasure it is.

Jul 1st 2011, 10:24
@ Anthony Farrugia and to all those who could not sleep :
You might be annoyed with this noisy event .
Disturbing the peace...this is what we experience EVERY DAY 24/7 in Malta.
Dogs left barking on roofs and in yards.
Jack hammers and chasers in afternoons , sundays, public holidays,
Noisy bird(Summien I think) sounds .GOING...TiT...Ti...Tik from 4.30 or 5 am onwards ...try leaving your window open . Try to sleep on after a night shift .
Hooting of very loud horns by some Gas truck distributer from 6.45am to 9am.
Every day ceremony of whistle blowing by some of those who have many pigeons on the roofs...apart from the droppings they distribute during flight on cars , laundry etc.
wood cutting machines in residential areas.
High velocity driving with the sound of sport exhausts .
Speedway motor cycling with deafening sounds.
Mechanics Testing of cars, trucks and heavy vehicles in residential areas emitting exhaust as well as noise.
You dont find the above elsewhere .
I'd rather have MTV...it music ...it starts..it ends..it comes once a year....Keep it coming.
Mr daniel Gordon
Jul 1st 2011, 13:32
@ John Scerri: I think we must live in the same street my friend.
You just summed up my early morning noise disturbance feeling.
Ear plugs are the only answer. It is a waste of time complaining, nothing will ever get done.

First question?? Where is the law.?/ Concerts are made for music until 2300 hrs or .....TILLLLLLLL

Third - Snoop Dogg arrival at the airport without a shirt??
WHERE ARE THE POLICE AND THE LAW????!!!!!!! ANY ACTION TAKEN. ???

For all the hate you give to rap and to Snoop Dogg he was the only one that finished with a nice message about the world living in piece all together..... This was the best MTV ever held.... Snoop Dogg knows how to respect people when he made a tribute to the biggest artist of rap Tupac Shakur and his friend Nate Dogg..... Respect to Snoop Dogg.

If huge crowds like never seen before packed Fosos ...I say there was something worth seeing or better listening too.
It was worth it ...it was free....it was great....it was Real....a place to meet ...let ones hair down.....kick the floor...wave one's hands...punch the air....clap...shake..jump.!!!!
I never listened to rap for 1 hour ...started to like it towards the end...the atmosphere was electric.
Snoop Dogg...Thanks for your comments......." I see many faces of many nationalities coming together enjoying themselves with music and coming together with love and peace" ...
Snoop Dogg did what others didn't ....He thanked all in the house(fosos) and said he will come back again.
He showed appreciation which some so called, famous artists who came here did not.
Yes there were some Sh..!!! and F...!! words .....but ....there was no disgusting religious swearing the type of which we in Malta are used to hearing and doing nothing about.
Well done to all organisers and a big thankyou also goes to the buses and their drivers at the end of it all.
It was my last rip on the old buses ...fortunately enough i boarded a very old one...farewell .
By the way......I am past my 50 years and I want to enjoy every bit ....Keep them coming ...!!!

Jul 1st 2011, 08:28

I was there and I liked it even though the main event took close to an hour before he made it on stage. I want to add my shoke that people were flying foreign flags, just a few, where there should only be Maltese flags. The worst was seeing that rag-tag flag for the Libyan rebels. Thankfully it didnt last long and someone forced its owner to stop waving it

amazing event overall, would loved local singers to take part instead of some other music played to gain time, between change of singers. Good job to the police and first aid crew . Thanks for giving the opportunity to admire these great people, and apart from all the only free event which all age groups can attend ..

First one to comment regarding the show and rap, its not worth commenting on, its a load of rubbish. i am entitled to comment in a free country. Yes?

You should start listening to some good music Mr. Debono, scrap your Pink Floyd/Queen/Beatles collection and start listening to some Snoop Dog!

You most certainly are.
And being a free country you where also entitled not to attend and not to comment. It being 'nothing worth commenting about'... :)
Yes? :P

JJ Debono, you talk about freedoms but you certainly don't have respect for those who like this type of music. Enjoy the music you enjoy and stop there. No need to comment on other genres.

You defiantly are...but that does not mean we have to agree with you ;)...I personally think it was quite the triumph, especially Snoop Dogg's mix of classics such as Gin n Juice and his new releases such as Sweat...A big well done to MTV for a brilliant stage and show overall. Bring on Isle of MTV 2012!
Mr Keith Muscat
Jul 1st 2011, 02:08
Ttotally agree with JJ Debono
Leave the word music to real musicians please...and I'm not saying this because I'm a rock lover.
I tend to listen to everything and i attended each isle of mtv edition. I appreciate good artisit and I sincerely liked gaga,enrique iglesias and bep over the years but this year was utter rubbish. All i heard was the same beat over and over again, swearing, a coolio calling us to raise the middle finger and our hands!
If you call this music then I'll consider my mother's unbearable snoring as a magnificent piece of music.

How about you learn to appreciate and be thankful that you got to see some great artist for free ? instead of being closed minded and complain ?

It's a free country, but I am inclined to agree with you. Doggy Snoop Snoop or what the heck he's called... is an idol? A criminal druggie is an idol? And a hero?
What does that make me then?
RAP is the music they named after removing the C from the front.
REAL MUSIC PLEASE!

I do not like rap, nor am I a rock fanatic, although I enjoy a fair bit of Floyd, Zeppelin, Eagles and the rest.
I did not attend this festival because it does not suit my musical taste. But it does suit others', so let them be, and stop moaning about what and who comes to Malta.
And for those of you bashing Snoop Dog for taking drugs, then hailing the Beatles are either hypocrites or ignorant fools.
