I just finished watching SCTV Vol 2. Aside from easily being the most hysterical DVD in my collection (I like it even more than Vol 1), it features the Plasmatics, Boomtown Rats & Canadian band, Rough Trade.
"The Fishin' Musician" with John Candy & the Plasmatics is worth the $60 alone!
I apologize if this topic has been previously posted, but the search on the site function isn't working properly right now. I also apologize to WolverineSyr, don't worry, sweetie, you'll get to see the DVD eventually.

Don't worry DayGlo - I'm buying all 3 sets next week. I found a deal on them.
Perry Como singing Turning Japanese always killed me. John Candy as Divine in Peter Pan, Mrs. Falbo's Tiny Town - God, I loved that show.

I also remember seeing The Plastics "Top Secret Man" video on the Jerry Todd show. Man was that freakin' bizarre and scary. And that's what got me into them.
