May 17, 2012 - I hate seeing U2 mentioned in posts....Where are Television now.??...and yet Bonio and co. are still fucking here...no justice i tells ya....
Jan 16, 2012 - Thanks for the heads up... I'll have to look for those vids. This was easily one of the best shows I have ever seen, and I've seen way too many to count.
Jan 1, 2012 - No, it wasn't their last gig. In 2011, they did a couple of gigs in Brazil. There are a few videos of these shows on YouTube as a 3-part interview with MTV Brazil. During this interview there was even talk of a new album. Richard Lloyd has left the band though. Jimmy Rip has taken his place.
Oct 18, 2011 - This may have actually been the last gig they did as Television.. it was supposed to be all the suriving members at this show, but Richard Lloyd ended up in the hospital last minute
Jun 5, 2011 - Hahahahha. Are you even old enough to be high? Listen to "See No Evil", "Guiding Light", "Friction", "Venus". And if you still feel that way...then you're a Philistine.
Apr 9, 2011 - fuck the hall of fags who gives a fuck just an excuse for a bunch af old hacks to get pissed on the record /television co's expense account and suck up to some 2 bob legends ,,or in MIke "suckhole" Love's case prove what at total fuckwit you are just have a look at some of the deadshits that have been inducted ...
Nov 7, 2010 - No need to underplay the Strokes' proclivity for great, affecting music craftmanship because you need to praise a cornerstone. Yes this is great stuff and influenced a lot of good concurrent bands. But so did a lot of other bands (the smiths, blondie, velvet underground, etc.); such influences shaped the direction and means by which a current band like the strokes creates music. You can't compare two generations of sound on the same platform just because u hear similarities
Oct 4, 2010 - When I first listened to MM, I was indifferent. I listened to it maybe three or four time that year. Then one day, for some strange reason, it was a completely new record to my ears, and I listened to it non-stop for weeks. Now I have all their albums and bootlegs as well as all of Tom Verlaine's stuff. Ha ha. I remember browsing the Television mailing list and a lot of the hardcore fans weren't exactly converts upon first listen either.
Sep 14, 2010 - I agree. I love both bands, but The Strokes music is more fun and straightforward, while Television songs usually require multiple listens (and weed) to appreciate.
Aug 13, 2010 - Hey! Such a nice video.
I really like good music, not the stuff of these days...
This is your case too? Nice! You'd like to check out my new channel, MariosSoul.
It's all about good, REAL music! You won't be able to find any Lady Caca nor Justin Bieber vids. there (NO WAY).
Feel invited to relive the old days with songs from the 50 ', 60', 70 ', 80's and more!
Long live Rock & Roll!
MariosSoul.
