WANNAMAN Posted January 22, 2005 Share Posted January 22, 2005 When the Raspberries come back to Chicago they should promote their new album on "Oprah!" (Bernie you should promote Eric's Biography--- studies have shown every book that has appeared on her show becomes a best seller! Maybe when you update the book with the Raspberries reunion new chapter) Los Angelos "The Tonight Show"New York "Saturday Night Live" "Regis and Kelly", "Today Show", "MTV and or VH1" "David Letterman" and "Conan" PBS "Soundstage" Just saw Brian Wilson on this and he was awesome!

Poor4Life Posted January 22, 2005 Share Posted January 22, 2005 Not a hope in hell you'll ever see them on MTV or VH1. Last I heard VH1 even considers John Mellencamp not hip enough for thier playlist anymore. In fact the last time I saw VH1 they don't even play videos anymore. They've become an outlet for Entertainment Tonight, and an endless stream of "Best of the..." shows. I think they'd have a better shot on VH1 Classics.Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aggiesjc Posted January 22, 2005 Share Posted January 22, 2005 Jeff, perfect description of what VH-1 is these days. They have nothing to do with music anymore, but will tell us in about a zillion lists what hairstyles are in, what movie actors are wearing to award shows, and what repulsive thing someone famous has done this week.

aggiesjc Posted January 22, 2005 Share Posted January 22, 2005 I guess I need to get VH-1 Classic. Never have seen it. Do they play videos? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al K Posted January 22, 2005 Share Posted January 22, 2005 yep...classic rock videos...and the occasional recent concert clip from a classic artist... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aggiesjc Posted January 22, 2005 Share Posted January 22, 2005 If that's a big hint, mrch, I hope SOMEBODY RECORDS IT! Some of us don't get VH-1 Classic, and will die if we miss televised Raspberries! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Argee Posted January 22, 2005 Share Posted January 22, 2005 I think Letterman would be the best bet. If someone could bend Paul's ear perhaps he could arrange something. He gets all sorts of classic rock types on the show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trindy Posted January 24, 2005 Share Posted January 24, 2005 I get VH1 Classic and love it. This band would be SUCH a natural for them. First of all, they still play videos...they have theme shows like "The Super Seventies," "We Are the '80s," "Rock Fest," etc. They also have a show called "Classic/Current" in which they show old videos from an artist's past contrasted with their current work. (Let's remember, the Razz have no "old videos" in the classic sense but they do have those old Don Kirshner's Rock Concert clips.) Every time they promote a tour, it seems it's from some old band that just got back together after 10 or 15 years apart...etc. etc. In short, they're a natural for this channel. And yes, should they ever appear, I am recording it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldblue Posted January 24, 2005 Share Posted January 24, 2005 I notice on VH1 Classics they seem to repeat sequences in 12 hour blocks, 2 per day. Wonder if they have a scheduled playlist of videos for each day? Just wondering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darlene Posted January 25, 2005 Share Posted January 25, 2005 Mrch, I HOPE SO! Do you know something we don't? --Darlene Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy K. Posted January 25, 2005 Share Posted January 25, 2005 Paul is definitely "the man" on the Letterman show.....but let's not discount bassist Will Lee.He carries a lot of clout, too, especially with his fellow bassists worldwide.
