I'm An MTV Orange Nation Winner!
I'm An MTV Orange Nation Winner!
Okay so I'm probably the oldest winner but I'm on my way to Hollywood for an MTV party!
A couple months ago I was bored and watching MTV and saw an ad for the MTV Sunkist Orange Nation sweepstakes. It's an MTV party sponsored by Sunkist called Orange Nation to be held Saturday August 16 in Hollywood. Well I got online, entered, and a couple weeks later got a call about being a winner. Then I didn't hear really anything about it again until this week when I got my flight information and hotel accomodations.
We will arrive in LA at noon on Friday the 15th and don't have to leave until late Sunday night the 17th, giving us plenty of time to explore Los Angeles. We'll be staying at the Renaissance Hollywood Hotel (a 5 star hotel) in Hollywood, which is on the same block as the Kodak Theater and Mann's Chinese Theater.
The Orange Nation MTV party will take place Saturday night around 8pm on the rooftop of The London, West Hollywood, which happens to be where Gordon Ramsay of "Hell's Kitchen" is the head chef. Could I be so lucky to meet the devil himself or at least have some of his food? Other celebrities are supposed to be there too. Will it be Miley Cyrus or the Jonas Brothers? Frankly, I hope not. I'm hoping some obscure 80's star will be there that no one else recognizes (are you reading this Billy Idol?).
Anyway, I will report back after I return. And let's hope the oldest winner gets a special grand prize. Afterall, if it wasn't for us 45 year old pioneers who remember the beginning of MTV, there wouldn't be a party at all!

Cool
Congrats! Like Nick said, you should take pictures and write up an article on the experience when you get back. That's bound to make the front page. :)
Devo was weird
I remember seeing the intro to this video before they played on SNL in the late 70s. It's still one of the most peculiar songs I've ever heard.
I Do Remember
Yes I remember watching those late night videos...when we had only 3 or 4 stations to choose from?
Will Do
Thanks...yes I will do that. I just hope I get to take pics of some celebs so I don't bore you with pics of me :)
An Education For Our Youth
I love this video! God I wish we could go back sometimes. This is when music was good!
DEVO is still around!
I just posted a blurb with their website and embedded the "whip it" video.

I'll Do It Just For You Eggs
That's a promise! I guess I'll have to rest up all week for this haha :) Thanks Eggs....and if I get any cheap botox, I'll be sure to share :)
Orange Nation
Congrats. But what is Orange Nation all about? Is it just a big party, or do you have to bob for oranges in a vat of ice water or something? Do they serve only orange food or drinks with OJ in them?
In any case, have fun and write all about it when you get back.
Spud
Go to the Devo website and get yourself one of those Devo "Energy Caps" so that any xombie watching can say, "hey, that's the guy from Xomba" ...Go ahead..I dare ya'!
Big Party
Thanks..it's supposed to be some big party. I hope I don't have to bob for oranges. Well if there's alcohol there I guess it won't matter!

Thanks Lady K
And if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have this wonderful orange avatar! I'll write all about it next week.
I ~Would~ Say Congratulations, but ...
... it would be steeped in jealousy. lol
Don't get me wrong; I'm glad that you're getting some fun, it's just that it's the kind of fun I should also be having (which no one seems to want me to have).

I Got Lucky
And you can too....you never know!
@mrbronco: You're Right, and I Do Get Lucky Sometimes ...
... but in a lot of little ways. And--although it is good- and more of a blessing-to be lucky in a lot of little ways--'big way'-luck pays a lot better!

Wow!
Congratulations! I must have been in outer space not to have seen this. So you must have just gotten back. Tell us all about it. Hope you had a good time. How was Gordon's food? Who were the celebrities you met?
