What happened to Kevin Seal? he always seemed to be the VJ that was a bit "odd", ie didn't fit into the mold of the others. He was like everyone's friend.

Kennedy was/is a babe, but I can see how the general public got annoyed with her.

One of my friends was the other woman in Dave Kendall's life when he was married about 15 years ago. She told us he wore a headpiece. I vaguely remember him.

Remind me what Downtown Julie Brown did, she was gorgeous and had great clothes, but she annoy

Downtown Julie Brown, aka "the black one", was "Miss Disco" 1979, and was mainly the club/dance connection for MTV.

Matt Pinfield, I liked him 'cause he was a fat bald record nerd, just like me!

Oh shoot....not what I meant to imply. I used "rant" for the lack of a better concerning our conversation..where he mostly talked at us, enthusiastically, and we hardly got in a word edgewise. I did manage t

We don't get MTV here in Toronto, but I absolutely hate Carson Daly. I can't believe that he is considered a celebrity... [xx(]

Justj0hn, thanks for clearing that up for me. It's good to hear Matt P's still a good guy. I wonder what acts he's signed? Who's on Columbia these days? I used to be able to tell you what act was signed to what label. Now I haven't a clue.
