I love both eras of VH but I am partial to the Roth era. ever read the book 'everyone loves our town'? its all about the early 90s and the grunge scene and all the fuckery that went on behind the scenes.worth a read.

The local radio station played Welcome to the Jungle and Paradise City so much that summer, I actually tired of it very quickly. Then did a weekend in August looking for a place to live in Mankato, MN (College) and the guys we stayed with broke the CD out and I listened in amazement as besides the 2 songs I'd heard dozens of times, just kept getting better and better as it was played out.... Top 10 in my books for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First time I heard them was on MTV Headbangers Ball IIRC…I was at NMU and my roommate and I a few others were all drunked up playing cards in our dorm room and we just stopped when it came on.😜🤣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were both 16 and it was awesome...........
