beavis and butthead are coming back!!! can't wait... mike judge used to come into a photo lab i worked at and ask questions about how to take photos and stuff... at that time, he was a frustrated bass player gigging around austin with a few bands and drawing illustrations for local publications for cash... 2 years later he pulled up in a porsche and was getting archival work done of some beavis and butthead posters to hang in his new office...-0

Freshman year of high school, so...1997 I think. Me and my girlfriend were getting busy on her downstairs couch and she turned on the TV to drown out the noise. I remember a Blink 182 video and I think an episode of Road Rules.
I can't remember the year because I'm very old but it was at a friends house and cable wasn't even available for us yet. Except for the Buggles I didn't really care much for the videos they played but the hash we were smoking didn't make me care much. I think this might have been where I first heard Duran Duran but again I'm not sure because the hash was so good.

Weren't the Buggles the first people to have a music video on MTV with Video Killed the Radio Star?

Good dear god, how DO I KNOW THAT?

Don't be surprised, I've heard that bit of trivia a lot from game shows and such. It's pretty obvious given the title.
Anyway, my first MTV memory is seeing and hearing Clint Eastwood by the Gorillaz the first time. What a song and video. Still one of my favorites.
Mtv is a vague memory. There was some good stuff, but eventually too many videos were better than the music it was selling. Thinking about it now... I hear the theme music. Dum.. Da dum... Da Da Da Dum____ Dum.. DaDum... DaDaDa Dum! DaDaDa Dum!
On my initial BpB sig perusal I got about a dozen before falling on the floor in some sort of drooling epileptic fit. Eventually snapping out of my psychotic daze I realized there was about two hours I couldn't account for. Later on noticing a check gone from my checkbook and the memo showing it was been written for a million bucks made out to the Bullet Proof Bandits. Now I can only hope it doesn't find it's way to Owen. Anyone else have a similar experience? I think there may be something subliminally sinister imbedded in that sig.

Must not have been too busy.
It's refreshing to see owen and BpB doing something positive and enjoyable.
