I just recently got digital cable down here in Tenn. and we got the channel MTV X.

It's plays nothing but rock videos. I've seen everything from Rush, AC/DC, Guano Apes, Megadeth, Metallica, Rob Zombie, Janes Addiction, and a slew of others.....


Finally a video channel I can watch and actually enjoy. Rock videos 24/7. Wow. :D


Anyone else get this channel?
 
Our local pay TV operator has just added 12 new free music channels... Damned decent of them.
 
"M.T.V.-Get Off The Air"
Fun Fun Fun in the fluffy chair
Flame up the herb
Woof down the beer
[click!]
Hi
I'm your video DJ
I always talk like I'm wigged out on quaaludes
I wear a satin baseball jacket everywhere I go
My job is to help destroy
What's left of your imagination
By feeding you endless doses
Of sugar-coated mindless garbage
So don't create
Be sedate
Be a vegetable at home
And thwack on that dial
If we have our way even you will believe
This is the future of rock and roll
How far will you go
How low will you stoop
To tranquilize our minds with your sugar-coated swill
You've turned rock and roll rebellion
Into Pat Boone sedation
Making sure nothing's left to the imagination
M.T.V. Get off the
M.T.V. Get off the
M.T.V. Get off the air
Get off the air
See the latest rejects from the muppet show
Wag their tits and their dicks
As they lip-synch on screen
There's something I don't like
About a band who always smiles
Another tax write-off
For some schmuck who doesn't care
M.T.V. Get off the air
And so it was
Our beloved corporate gods
Claimed they created rock video
Allowing it to sink as low in one year
As commercial TV has in 25
"It's the new frontier," they say
It's wide open, anything can happen
But you've got a lot of nerve
To call yourself a pioneer
When you're too god-damn conservative
To take real chances.
Tin-eared
Graph-paper brained accountants
Instead of music fans
Call all the shots at giant record companies now
The lowest common denominator rules
Forget honesty
Forget creativity
The dumbest buy the mostest
That's the name of the game
But sales are slumping
And no one will say why
Could it be they put out one too many lousy records?!?
M.T.V.-Get off the air!
NOW
 
Well, that's pretty cool of them!

*Turns head to see Joan Jett on*

As I said, a wide variety of tunes. Some new stuff, alot of old stuff. Tis a good channel I say!

It's great for background noise, and I dont have to constantly flip through the channels for good tunes, or tune the radio dial. :D
 
Wow, and I thought MTV2 was cool after watching MTV for so long!!!! I gotta get that!!!
 
It rocks Lazarus.


I've seen very few videos or songs for that matter that I didnt like. For the most part, its really good. No V.J.'s....just vids. Linkin Park just got over, and I'm waiting to see, or hear for that matter, lol, what comes on next......and it is a band called Death in Vegas.....

:D
 
Thanks for the DK lyrics. Jello would be really proud of you....
 
Damn, I've got to see if they've got it here. MTV pissed me off years ago. :(

Just saw the Linkin Park vid (In The End) yesterday. Very cool.
