Ok kiddos, time to take a trip in the Wayback Machine. Back in the day, when the world was young, those of us who lived in cable purgatory and could not get MTV, had the next best thing, Friday Night Videos. Now dont get me wrong, I spent many an afternoon in the living rooms of my more fortunate friends abodes. Believe me, I soaked up a lot of music videos that way.
But you know, I couldnt move in and had to leave. So Friday night would roll around, there was a football game and then a dance, then if I put the hammer down in ye olde Firbird, I would make it home for the begining of Friday Night Videos, and it was pure cool.
I even watched when I was off in college cause I got a kick out of the show. Sure, I had MTV, but Friday night would roll around and I would fire up the tube and catch the show. Then I lost track of the show, even though it was on air after Letterman until 2000. Its too bad really, it was a cool show.
I stopped watching MTV and moved on to VH1 cause MTV forget it was a music video network somewhere along the way. Eventually VH1 became.. meh. Now there is Youtube, and its groovy. Tonight is a Friday Night Videos kinda night, which is cool. I gotta few I remember from way back when and I still like em. Enjoy..
