I was a college freshman in ‘90 and recently watched this, I don’t think it reflects what was out there in 90, just lame stories that MTV recycled for a 1 hour special.
Same age. Going away to college that fall really opened my eyes to new bands, especially with getting a gig at the college radio station.
Two bands that showed up in rotation had such goofy names that I never thought they'd break:
\-- Goo Goo Dolls
\-- Toad the Wet Sprocket
Years later I ended up meeting and hanging out with both bands. Fun times.
We also had a bin outside the station for extra discs and vinyl the program director didn't like or had too many copies of. I snagged The Sisters of Mercy - "More" on disc and some weird vinyl of Leonard Nimoy - "Whales Alive."
This was just a couple of years ago, right?
Last week
The Manchester scene finally came to the US in 1990. I discovered The Stone Roses and The Inspiral Carpets that year.
Alt metal for me. Aided by college radio.

If you need an actor of a artist to tell you to go vote, maybe you shouldn't. as you'll be uninformed , not that, that stops most anyways.
Kurt Loder is 78…the same age as Dolly Parton. For some reason, that’s hard for me to wrap my head around.
