V66 was a couple of years before. It was a local UHF channel that went all video, as MTV was only on cable which was not that common in Boston. They played a lot of the local bands that would have played at the Channel or the Paradise, and got airplay on WBCN, WAAF, COZ. Not the WMBR Rat bands. V66 was quite the phenomenon. I recall New Man as well, but didn't get out to see those bands. My brother got me in to see the Classic Ruins when I was underage.
