Re: Television Live (and twangless)

<< Everyone's entitled to their own opinion blah blah blah, but I have to 
interject an objection here. I remember the first weekend I went to CBGB's, 
back in 75 or 76. First night it was Mink Deville and Ramones, next night was 
Talking Heads opening for Television. As great as Ramones were, Television 
blew em away. I've never been a big fan of guitar solos, but Verlaine and 
Lloyd always managed to surprise me. And "Marquee Moon" still holds up. >>


FWIW, anyone a fan of Television who hasn't tapped into Sleater-Kinney might 
want to check 'em out. They're two-guitar interplay is really something 
special. As is their two vocal interplay. Just two of several things that 
make them maybe the most vital rock band around at the moment. 

Cheerleadingly,
