The Buddy Holly reading kind of amazed me. They were given such direct and down to the point directions. Although they were not known they still knocked there shows dead into applause. I kind of liked the part where they played at "The Apollo" they were heckled by the crowd and pulled out one song they hadn't sang yet and knocked dead one of the harshest crowds. Kind of reminds me of an underdog story. It was a very interesting blog this week.

MTV/Buddy Holly (Blog Week 7)
When I started watching MTV's launch I was kind of amazed at how it began because when I watch MTV today I never knew why they have the Astronaut at the beginning but now I know. Also, the first music video was kind of cool because I've heard that song on one of the Grand Theft Auto games before and I would always try to find that song while playing the game so it was cool to actually see the music video. And also, the second music video I've heard the song before but I have never seen that music video before either. Now I have, just talking about MTV reminds me of a day when I was in grade school, when I woke up I watched a music video of Jimmy Fallon's I guess it's just something I remember. I used love waking up and watching music videos so I guess MTV has changed my life a little bit. MTV is a good thing for television and needs to continue to air for years to come, I mean after all it has lasted since 1981, why take it off the air? Exactly.

Good to see some people working ahead of the blog schedule, Drew. I didn't know the Buggles were on Grand Theft Auto (was it Vice City?).
ReplyDeleteDid you notice a connection between the readings and the MTV segment?
