    Have a lot of videos from No Disco recorded on VHS. I didnt have MTV or BBC growing up so No Disco on Thursday nights and Dave Fanning weeknights was how I got into my favourite bands of the time.

    I particularly recall one episode where Donal played out the Superstar cover by Sonic Youth, Sabotage by Beastie Boys, The Wild Ones by Suede, Babies by Pulp and Ten Storey Love Song by The Stone Roses.

    Imagine having that type of music on a Thursday night on RTE these days!
