MTV Unplugged Returns

MTV Unplugged will be returning to the airwaves June 22nd and the lineup is quite a mix of characters. Bon Jovi who inspired the first Unplugged series with their 1989 acoustic performance of "Dead or Alive" at the MTV Music Awards will be the first to perform. Other performers tagged are Mary J. Blige, John Mayer, Kenny Chesney, and if they can keep it together during the tour a special performance in Miami by the Police. It's great that MTV could find time to fit quality programming into it's vast catalogue of Real World/Road Rules Challenges, Room Raiders, and Next. You better catch the unplugged shows on their first run because MTV most likely won't be able to fit them in after that. We'll hope the Roots make another backing band appearance at some point.
