It was on all day, all the videos MTV played their first day on air. I caught bits and pieces of it. Did anyone else get the chance to check it out?

Did they play any Prince? Posted by Dorian Gray (Member # 3150) on :
I didn't see any Prince but saw a boatload of Rod Stewart.

Mouse, I don't know how to break this to you, but on August 1st,1981 Prince wasn't on the music map for MTV really.
WE are DEVO

Thanks Devo. There were other 80s artists on MTV back then! LOL

I doubt there would have been any Prince on the first day given MTV's imfamous color line at launch.

Glad ya'll said that about Prince. I was going to say something to that effect, but given that I was only 4 years old in '81, I wanted to check my facts first!!!
