Talk about a blast from the past.

While the 2006 MTV VMAs were just 10 years ago and (with a few notable exceptions) almost everyone in attendance is still fairly relevant today, the show still feels extremely dated.

With the 2016 VMAs just a few days away, lets remember the year that Jack Black hosted, Panic! at the Disco nabbed the award for Video of the Year, Avenged Sevenfold were named Best New Artist, and Fall Out Boy brought a Capuchin monkey.
