Mark Albrighton Posted August 13 VT Supporter Share Posted August 13 One of the rare times I don’t regret relenting to my daughter’s request to have Radio One on in the car as it meant that I heard this for the first time the other day. I rather like it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just reminiscing with the missus about seeing Warren Zevon supporting Jackson Browne in 1976. This even sparked envy from big Zevon fan Tom Russell, who I got to chat with several times on his UK visits. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bickster Posted August 13 Moderator Share Posted August 13 So talking of Snub TV… have another of their videos. The wonderful Fatima Mansions and Only Losers Take the Bus and this Snub TV video is much better that the other one they made for it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Similarly there are 2 videos for Pixies Velouria, one, the accepted one was made by Snub. Bloody loved that show. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bloody loved that show. Yet it never gets mentioned as being in the same league as TOGWT or The Tube (both of which were obviously great too). I was mortified when it ended. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was mortified when it ended. I think Snub TV was aimed at a more learned audience not just some ne’er do wells who fancied seeing The Jam. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He cut short his last UK tour on unspecified health grounds. He used to communicate regularly online, but after an annoying series of incidents with a couple of crazy stalkers, he no longer does.

It's interesting because it almost seems a bit of a throwback in a way -- TV shows doing a bit of theatre for bands, heavy on themes. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marka Ragnos Posted August 13 VT Supporter Share Posted August 13 (edited) I swear my son getting ready to move to college this week has the same stringy long hair as these kids -- I haven't been paying attention, but it's funny how these things come back.
