This is our teaser trailer for a documentary now in pre-production, LIFE ON THE V: THE STORY OF V66. Created entirely with footage not seen by Boston viewers in over 20 years.
Keep it going! I was a card carrying member of SPIT before it became The Metro. Something like that. Saw Lou Reed at the Rat (my roommate waited tables there), was on line in Harvard Square the other day behind Cam from the Prime Movers (another roommate dated him) and The Atlantics, The Cars. Keep me posted! <3
Aerosmith at the Lynn Bowl. There was a live V-66 broadcast but I sort of remember the broadcast sounding horrendous that day. The idea was awesome and at that time it was very cool because no one else was doing it. But hearing a band like Aerosmith coming out of my 3 inch tweeter TV speaker was no way to listen to them. But if wasn't for the V, the only ones who would have seen them were the ticket holders.
yea there were only a few channels on tv in boston and then this bomb dropped when i was 8 or 9..... I still remember seeing the girls side boob in the madame butterfly video LOL
Does anyone remember the video that had a blue background with a bunch of wooden people figures??? I know it's really vague, but it was one of the first videos I remember every seeing on this channel. For some reason I think it was YES, but I'm probably wrong!
Remember when even the lamest bands could prosper because of a great video? Thank you, MTV and VH1 for making music videos nothing more than a sentimental memory.

@greenhouse1314 I think the song you are thinking about is 'We Close Our Eyes' by Go West.
