This is the weirdest/most awesome thing ever. How the hell did Mainliner end up on a public access program? Why are they playing Top of the Pops-style for a bunch of kids? Who decided this was the appropriate musical selection for this show, and were they awarded with a medal for it?

The world will never know. But Mainliner was there, at least. And that's all that matters.

Holy shit thank you; that was fuckin awesome. 90s cable access in bigger cities yielded some crazy shit. Looks like the lineups were consistently bitchin.
Still going apparently. I wanna play on it:http://www.roctober.com/chicagogo/oldshows4.html

Wreckless Eric's self-titled album.

Which includes this incredible tune you may recognize from the mediocre film Stranger Than Fiction(It's the one Will Ferrell learns on guitar so he can get on the inexplicably breathtaking Maggie Gylenhal).

Seriously, why don't more people know about this guy? He's like the Elvis Costello of...well he's practically the same thing at the same place and time but that's just fine with me.

I don't know, I think I gave him a decent-enough shot; didn't grab me the way Costello's stuff (or better yet, Nick Lowe's stuff) does.

Yeah, even the episodes from 2004 and on look like they're from the 90s
They had fucking Guitar Wolf on there! They had Acid Mothers Temple being interviewed by a rat puppet! Chic-a-go-go is probably the best show ever!
