    I have been to the one on Airline a couple of times. It was pretty good, but nothing special. I wasn't too woried about the sanitary condition of the place, though. I figgered that if the color of the building didn't make me sick, then nothing would.

    Yes, VH1 originated in Houston. I knew about it, but I weasn't into it or MTV back then, so I don't know all that much about how it got started. I do know that it was 1985 when they were in Allied Bank.
