I was just discussing the same thing last night at the show... I dont
remember
if it was Jaime or Matt, but I had remarked how I've never seen the
Connells
videos on 120Minutes!  I think Art has a good idea here!  We should
start a
petition of some sorts!  Better yet, before the Conan O'brien show next
wed.,
which tapes I believe from 4:30-5:30, they should see if they can get ON
120Minutes which tapes wednesdays and thursday mornings, right
down the street from Conan!  Sure MTV books many weeks in advance, but
even if it's a slim chance, calls should be made!
 
I'll call Matt Pinfield now to see who next weeks guests are, I know for
a
fact he's a fairly big Connells fan.
 
but please do send those e-mails into [log in to unmask]
