My friend just told me she got an email saying that the SNL that Queen were musical guests on will be on after the usual 11:30 SNL on Saturday night. I just checked the SNL website and it didn't say anything so I hope it's true!

I can't confirm or deny, but if Danny DeVito's hosting, it's the right one!

Well, according to the NBC schedule:

http://www.nbc.com/nbc/header/TV_Schedule/schedule_day-20040626.html

1:01 AM SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE (ALL NIGHT) 302 - CHEVY CHASE/QUEENoad 9/25/82

That would be the one.. funny they mention Chevy and not Danny though. Before someone asks what 'All Night' means, that's what NBC calls their overnight schedule.. it doesn't mean _this_ show will literally be on all night :-P

Anyway, it's great news because they show the complete original 90 minute episodes, unlike the recent Comedy Central reruns.

This is definitely something I have to remember to watch. I was only one when it debuted so I've never seen it before. I'm just lucky I don't have to work the next day.

I saw it when it was new and LIVE -- tape will be just as great, more than twenty years later...

I have to figure out my VCR. I'm so used to a DVD player by now that recording on a VCR has kind of escaped me. Since the TV that has the VCR is next to my parents' room, I have to keep it low or on mute. Is it okay to keep it on mute while recording? Will there be sound?

WHY CAN'T I REMEMBER THIS!

OMG, this is so funny! I love that some people are still confused about stuff like this :)

Erica, you have to understand that a VCR is self-contained.. if it's getting a signal from its tuner, or cable box, or however it works for you, then it's recording the audio and video, in color. Some people used to ask stuff like.. if I watch it on a black & white TV, will it record black & white.. hehe.

Your TV doesn't even need to be on. The TV is just a monitor. So yes, you can have the TV on mute and it won't affect it :)

Edit: There needs to be a tape in it though, and put the record speed to 'SP' for best quality and get a new tape.. you'll have plenty of extra time.

And when you set a timer, start it a minute earlier and give it a couple minutes extra at the end. Stuff is never exactly on time these days.

Haaahaha thank you so much Deacon Fan. For someone like me who is so stuck up about technology, I don't even remember that. Thanks!
