They appear to be saying it's not a money issue but a reputation they are trying to change.
On the flip side the town can barely afford to lose the income of a lack of MTV spring break approval...
I saw there was supposedly an open public meeting last Wednesday to discuss. Has anyone got any inside info?
Went last year and looking to book up now for 2010 but I'm apprehensive to book without MTV signing on as maybe there will be better spots with them involved...

Honestly, the very first year I went to PCB...MTV wasn't there...and in all honesty...I didn't notice ANY difference. Maybe it's because i've always stayed at the sunspree (which is halfway down the strip)...so MTV being there or not means nothing to me. PCB will still be rocking out and there will be tons of sponsors and vendors down there regardless.
I'm always too hungover and way too far down the beach to get down there early enough to see any of the shows.
I'd prefer them to be there...because I know lots of people may go there for that reason...but IMHO it didn't effect me at all.
Maybe someone staying at the boardwalk will chime in...
