G's to Gents ... Why the hell am I watching this???

I remember when MTV came on air... That was when the remote had a cable on it. I thought it was Nina but dang that was along time ago.

Beta players were introduced for over 1K.

Yes and Rush are my favorite bands... but did not really follow the yes band members after the 9021Live album

Yep...Buggles' "Video Killed the Radio Star" and the 5 original VJs were:
Nina Blackwood, Mark Goodman, Alan Hunter, J.J. Jackson, and Martha Quinn. I actually watched that first video when MTV launched on August 1, 1981. Hell if I can remember who was on air first...I *think* it was Mark Goodman....

So I was channel surfacing trying to relax after writing up a contract and somehow stopped on G's to Gent's. Haven't watched MTV in years, now I know why.

Where do they get these guys???

Here's a quote!

"I'm homeless, I live in my car. BUT HEY IT'S A MERCEDES"!!!

This being said by a guy wearing "bling" (fake or not) ... lets try putting the money elsewhere fella.

I will never understand this mentality I guess. Maybe something good will actually come out of this show for one of these guys. B/c man are they ROUGH!
