SPEAKING OF IMUS......

[lalumia]

does anyone know of the existence of the short lived IMUS PLUS Metromedia TV series which aired on Saturday nights (against the original Saturday Night Live, foolishly) in 1979/80?....there must be evidence of this somewhere: full disclosure;
Jimi La Lumia & the Psychotic Frogs were guests one week during "Death To Disco" mania, and I kicked his butt:
Imus:
"Jimi, how'd you like to have a big time DJ manage your career?"
Jimi:
"Sounds great, Don; do you know any?"
you HAD to be there; it was the beta max era, and I only have color photos of our 'exchange',taken from the studio audience area...
if someone can help with this, it would be greatly appreciated

Let's see....almost 30+ years later Imus is still around......and where is your crappy little band today?

by the way, I'm not attacking Imus, I did what his producer asked me to do, I just did it a little TOO well, and I'd like to find a copy of the show

...try a year earlier. WFRV/5 Green Bay ran the thing in the summer of '78. Watchable only if you had memories of what Imus had done in '70-'73...

my brain is fried when it comes to what year, but I'd love to find a copy of the Imus Meets The Psychotic Frogs segment
it was Metromedia's national network, Channel 5 in NY, before Fox, I got mail from all over the country, (became a hopeless alkie a year later)
