I saw the first two hours of MTV when it went live. I didn’t like it, and never watched it again.

I was a big Tull fan still (I play flute) and one of the videos was Aqualung. It seemed to be at half speed. I’d seen it in concert four times; the first was what inspired me to become a musician.

I decided to pass on the whole music video thing. No regrets.

Also a huge Tull fan. I watched early MTV.. well, I LISDTENED to early MTV--there wasn't actually much to watch. It was something that ran in the background.

Once they started moving away from primarily music, I stopped.
