A retro set with some artists playing Riot Fest next weekend (Beck, Gary Numan, Killing Joke), a catchy accordion tune released 30 years ago (Peek-A-Boo) and one of Eddie Vedder’s favorite non-Pearl Jam songs (Buffalo Tom).
“You’ll never look at music the same way again” said VJ Mark Goodman when MTV launched 37 years ago this week (8.1.81) with videos from The Buggles, Split Enz, The Pretenders, Talking Heads and The Vapors.
Joining the El Scorcho, Freedom Of Choice, 4th Of July (sorta) weekend with two hours of classic 80s and 90s tunes (…and a cool cover of an 80s classic with a 90s ska punk touch!)
Another week, and yet another awesome 2 hours of great 80’s and 90’s Alternative music! Hear bands like The Posies, Blink 182, Cracker, Talking Heads, Social Distortion, Pavement, (along with many, many more)!
These songs take us back to the days when iPhones hadn’t been invented, scrunchies were cool, and The Simpsons were just getting started… *nostalgic sigh*
