That's a shame, in 120 minutes i saw alot of good bands and Matt pinfield was a great host, i remember when he had Steven tyler on and how he impressed him with his music knowledge.

But that was when Matt became the official host of the show, before that they would have guest host.



this show was like hipster alternative heaven for me, this was before you can download every song ever on the internet aside from articles in magazines this kinda shows was all we had at the time, and i say we because most of my rocker friends here like me grew up watching these shows.

it's a little sad MTV has become a reality network that occasionally plays music, they used to cover all the scenes happening in music, Metal, rap, all of them.
