My daughter and I sat behind some of the wonderful Deas Vail people and watched two of them with their notebooks open, voting for their video as often as possible. I’m so glad they won. I know so many bands resort to stuff like that and it’s the bands with the biggest fanbases that are willing to work that get stuff done. Dave Johnson, who went on to form White Throne Magazine back in the ’80s … he sent 777 postcards to MTV to push for Stryper video airplay on the musical network. Stuff like that works…
