Cool.Thanks for posting. I noticed Brad was now a reporter on CTV news.I knew he looked familar and so was his name. Was sure he had something to do with music. I watched Toronto Rocks quite often after school. I remember John Major hosting but forgot about Brad taking his place.This brings back memories.(This was on City TV Toronto early-mid 1980's). (Back when they new how to broadcast video's.) When you could turn on Muchmusic almost any time of day and actually see a music video.
I just saw him on CTV Newsnet this Saturday Morning. He looks a lot like J.D Roberts (now just John Roberts on CNN's morning show). Brad was great to us. Glad to see he is doing well.
I love this footage. For all you "30 somethings" who grew up watching Muchmusic, this was how it all began. I think it was on at 3:30 or 4, can't really rememeber but my sister and I watched it religously after school. Awesome thanks!
Wow oh Wow........Thanks for posting this. I got a story about this show. I am 34 and well back around 1984 or so I sent a letter requesting The Who-Who Are You. He read my letter and played the video,afterwards he insulted the video, but at the end of the show he apologised. Now, I taped this when it happened to which I taped over by accident.....Man I would so so LOVE to have that footage back.
It was an interview with Micky only. He talks about the New Monkees show and how it was a really bad idea and how sorry he feels for the kids that have been cast in it.
I really don't think I can put it up because it is the property of CITY TV. An interview with Fan Club Presidents is one thing but an interview with a celebrity is an other.
My band Exxit was one of the winners on Toronto Rocks contest. Check it out on (oiradt)

You skipped the entire Peter Tork and Micky Dolenz interview in the middle. Very disappointing. Can we see that too?
