Looks like Viacom bought them out in a settlement with the founder of the station back in 89. Don't know if you saw this or not, I wouldn't have a clue as to getting your hands on the vids. Good luck.

Someone needs to give djsoss a hi-res pic of the Vans shoes. Something that expands to the size of a freeway billboard[8D]

Can we suggest djsoss post a smaller photo?
It doesn't need to be so large
- currently the photo you posted is 1024 x 768 pixels (2.25MB), or 14.222" x 10.667 @ 72 dpi
- try 4.5 x 6" instead -- it'll still look good.

No, no, no. HUEG IS GOOD! Can you imagine the impact an enormous signature would have? People everywhere would fear it. You'd have to scroll endlessly sideways and by the time you get to the end of your sidescroll journey, you'll forget what the topic was about[}:)]
