Dorm life at Mount Ida college, Newton Centre MA wouldn't have been any where near as great without the V. Thanks for the great party memories.

I want my V-66 back on the air, oh how I miss that station ! My favorite videos were New Man's "Bad Boys" and The Stompers' "East Side Girl" !

I am glaad to see so many comments about Lizzie Borden and the Axes. I was the director of that video and had a great time working with Liz and her crew. I had the good fortune to see her a few months ago and got to shoot a live recording of her but I heard that the audio wasn't usable . Too bad. - She's still rockin'. I heard some blurb about a V66 re birth of some kind but can't find anything. How cool would that be?

I ABSOLUTELY LOVED V-66. It was so cool to view videos any time of the day or night. (Can't do THAT anymore.) I was 25 back then & got married that year, I even remember calling to request a song in my wedding gown, I think it was "Love Stinks". It was a time of the BEST music & the most stylish performers. (I remember that Doug Flutie & his wife were guest "vj's" shortly before is went off the air.)

My two endearing memories of V-66: (1) V-66 aired the song "We built this city" but with video shot locally; somehow I recall one scene with people working out in an aerobics studio where you could see them thru an upper floor window in the city? (2) A-HA's video "Take on me"; the best, most creative, music video ever. I had never seen anything like it before (of course I had seen only a few "Friday night" videos back then; I did not have Cable TV) but to this day (2009) that A-Ha video is still my all-time favorite. Thank you V-66!

Please help - does anyone remember a V-66 video for a local band that was sort of a parody of "Hard Day's Night"? I seem to recall that it had people chasing the band around the Pru, but I can't for the life of me remember the band.

I remember a show called five all night with George Fennell from back in those days and it was hillarious as well as compelling. I wonder what became of good old uncle George?

After rereading this entire page, I realized how awesome V66 was for me since I lived in NH and our cable company didn't have MTV. Thanks for the memories, and if anyone thinks of the song I'm looking for in my previous posting, email me at ZachMail@aol.com. I can't believe the VHS video tape I had with all my favorite videos from the V got ruined years ago. Looking forward to the documentary!

I'm trying to remember a group and video from V66. It involved a male singer with long blond hair, people at a party, the man sees his girl flirting, he takes off in his sports car and stops just short of the cliff. Please help me name that song/group. Thanks!
