BEST PROGRAMMING EVER! (not including rage retro!)
These guys really impressed me with their programming. Great to see a young group of people have an appreciation of the history and music of the 80's. I might have to check out their music.
Excellent guest programming. I hadn't seen many of those clips in years. Van She were also very comprehensive in their clip introductions too, which was nice.
One of Rage's best(and I'm talking about Van She's guest stint.I passed on the New Romantic special afterwards).My picks out of Van She's choices were( in no order of preference):
Same Old Scene
Dance Away-Roxy Music
She's So Cold-The Rolling Stones
Another Brick In The Wall Part 2-Pink Floyd(an added bonus-the song was played at a faster speed than the one Max have in their library)
Wiggle It-2 In A Room(false advertising when you see the clip,but great nonetheless)
Stand Back-Stevie Nicks
Hotel California-The Eagles(say what you want about radio thrashing the song to death,but how many times do you see the clip shown on a show like Rage?Not many,and it was the proper clip too,not the one from Hell Freezes Over)
Goodnight Tonight-Wings
Homeless-Paul Simon & Ladysmith Black Mambazo
Trouble-Lindsey Buckingham
This Must Be The Place(Naive Melody)-Talking Heads
Vienna-Ultravox(despite the clip's screen ratio being expanded and it's storyline making no sense)
Handle With Care-Traveling Wilburys
and the one I've wanted in my collection for so long...
I Know There's Something Going On-Frida
