August 1, 1981 is a day that will live in pop culture infamy.
It was the first day MTV (Music Television) went on the air. The cable channel didn't catch on right away, but when it did, it was like a sonic boom.
There is no denying the impact MTV has had on our culture, both good and bad, so it seems a bit strange (and sad) that the celebrations have been relegated to its sister station, VH-1 Classics.
