Ah yes.....back in the 80s you put MTV on new year's eve....had some friends over and drank a few beers...all the songs on MTV were great....Billy idol. Prince. Def leopard...those were the goog old days...drinking lowenbraus...rock on !!!!!

[@anthonyharrison8584]

The 80's were just the best,, these kids today don't know what they've missed

[@user-uq6sz6po3d]

Saw these guys at the student center of Northern Illinois University around 1985. Good show. They had their moment.

[@colingawel]

The best two chord song ever. Terry Anderson is a genius.

[@JohnPerrinMusic]

They don't call him Mr. Genius Man for nothin'...

[@kirkmartinkus367]

This band kicked ass. When I had a business in Wisconsin, Maruo Magellan made signs for me. He would come to my sunday brunch. Great band, great people! Throw in Warner Hodges and you have no idea what will happen.

[@danrgoodnight9345]

my favorite song by the Satellites saw em open for Petty, good stuff

[@Frank-px2gq]

I LOVE THESE GUYS, WISH I HAD GOTTEN INTO THEM SOONER

[@havardfossmolien4629]

[@JayneWalker-ru4ll]

Always loved this song 🎵 ❤️

[@jeromelafayettenarramore1726]

How a band could shred two chords for four minutes at this level is miraculous!

[@mt3776]

Revolutionary

[@Hellwyck]

Sing along kids... Livin' in a shack in a one horse town, tryin'a get to heaven 'fore the sun goin' down...

[@KD-nb3mp]

Great live Band

[@d.a.thorndike8772]

I think Dan Baird is wearing the exact same clothes he was wearing in the Keep Your Hands To Yourself video!

[@sunnygxracer]

He can 'because Dan' !

[@mikespencer3518]

If they ever invent a Time Machine I’ll know where to go for New Years Eve ‘86!

[@chrispistol6043]

Pretty sure he's playing that Les Paul Junior that Charlie Starr wound up buying from a local music store after he traded it in. Charlie still plays it live.

[@CountryRock2U]

really? it's great! Georgia Satellites to Blackberry Smoke!

[@Moose6340]

Man, hard to believe it's been over 25 years since this awesome album came out. Back when it was more about the music and it was OK for a band to be ugly.

Dan Baird is playing rhythm. Rick Richards plays lead

[@joynthis]

Music on MTV? Well I never.

[@bubbagump6934]

It used to be the greatest channel in the world, back in 1979 and 1980. Of course, then, the Man took it over. Power to the people. Now we got You Tube!

[@OthO67]

[@yucchhiiowwee]

MTV does not stand for MUSIC Television anymore, it stands for "RAP, TV GAME SHOW AND SOAP OPERA Television nowadays..Nothing about..."MUSIC"!

[@RBEO22]

Looking good Rowsdower.

As soon as YO....MTV RAPS. Crap started and the fresh prince was on ..it all went down hill for there....I think it was around 1991....
