VH1 CLASSIC? Is this different than VH1? Geez...I'm so out of the loop. Haven't owned a TV in over three years much less cable.

much different, just videos. only commercials are for VH1 shows. every now and then they do an interview show (last weekend was Robert Plant), but usually it's all videos. we get it on the satellite, and i guess you can get it on digital cable, too...

VH1 Classic is an excellent channel when it comes to variety of old clips they show. I couldn't believe I was seeing the Jackson 5 (some song I can't remember), Todd Rundgren ("Hello, It's Me"), Marvin Gaye ("Let's Get It On"), Jimi Hendrix ("Voodoo Child {Slight Return}") all during the same hour on one channel. That's more like late '60s early '70s FM radio.
This post not for the wimp contingent. All whiny wusses avert your eyes.
