I always liked this one: John Fogerty - The Old Man is Down the Road Featuring what must be the longest electric guitar cable in the world. Good concept for a video I thought, and a good song too. "Were [sic] not your monkey and so what?"-á -The Sex Pistols (2006) |

New Order - True Faith Deelite - Grove is in the Heart Peter Gabriel - Sledgehammer Strawberry Switchblade - Since Yesterday A Ha - Take on Me Ultravox - Vienna David Bowie - Ashes to Ashes

Reminded me of
The Stranglers - Strange Little Girl
Whilst I wasn't a fan of the New Romantic Movement (the music was ok, it's everything else about it I objected to ) the Human League and others made some pretty decent vids. |

In honor of Dave another great classic MTV show. GWAR is #3 on my list of fantastic live 80's shows I can barely remember getting home from.
What is funny is above you have a lead singer of such an off the wall band, advocating their fan base as murders of mailmen and general debaucherists, to get on stage; yet no one ever killed anyone and had GWAR blamed for it, unlike a number of other metal bands that came on the scene later.
What is a shame is that GWAR, over the past 5 years stopped playing the local clubs and started playing what is known as The National. The shows were never the same. There is something to say about coming out of a dark alley (Alley Katz Club) in Richmond, Va at 2:00 am covered in red and green food dye walking right into all the straights leaving the night clubs. Many a conversation started with nice looking ladies all dolled up from their night at the club. Some interesting house parties ensued as well after some of their shows. |

I just have to rib you. What about that famous artist colony around Marfa ?? With works on display by many of the more well known minimalist sculptors ? I like the fake Prada store literally out in the middle of nowhere. Wow. But that's out in the relaxed part of Texas. Kind of like San Antonio. I grew up in the uptight judgmental/cop/Protestant part of the state. It wasn't until my 30s that I knew Texans were having fun on the other side of the Catholic/Tejano line. That part of the state really is hella fun, for all ages. "Were [sic] not your monkey and so what?"-á -The Sex Pistols (2006) |

Oh man....! I didn't know that one existed. In fact, I don't think we ever had even on Stranglers video on American MTV. Did we? That is so great. Those guys are still gods to me, even after infinite repeated listens.
[P.S. Saw Hugh Cornwell play in a little club a couple of years ago. Very strange. $10 entrance fee, Hugh, drummer from Blondie and session bass player named Fish performing, about 150 people there. Hugh was all over that black Telecaster, and still into the music. Unforgettable, but kind of strange]. "Were [sic] not your monkey and so what?"-á -The Sex Pistols (2006) |
