MTV Celebrates 30 Years – Remembering The Beginning (Blog)

My wife Sandra and I were married in 1979 and lived in Madison, TN, a suburb of Nashville. In those days cable television weren’t available in our area, although if it were, we couldn’t afford it anyway. Heck, we didn’t even have a telephone during most of the first year of our marriage and we definitely didn’t go out to eat. There were times we would save up $15 or $20 to go to a concert (yes that was the price for two tickets in those days). Our entertainment mainly consisted of walking to the little league baseball field behind our apartment to watch the kids play (and the parents scream!) or visit friends to play board games and play music. TV really wasn’t our main source of entertainment and you could tell it by the 13 inch black and white television we owned.
This podcast is a special post from Mike Arnold’s book, Concert Blast Experiences - Guest List-Backstage-VIP. This is actually an audio of Chapter 16 – Artists Crazy Concert Experiences. We are giving this to you in the format of using the recorded clips from our Concert Blast Interviews. Mike sets up each clip and then you will hear the artist tell their crazy concert experience. Over 20 music artists are telling us their Crazy Concert Experience.
