Same here. You Brits bitching about TotP, OGWT and Jools don't realize what a luxury that is. If you were stuck with broadcast TV in the U.S., you were pretty much stuck with miming on SOLID GOLD or AMERICAN BANDSTAND, the occasional good music guest on SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE or the late-night talk shows, and... and... well, there was NIGHT MUSIC on ABC for a couple of years, which was the closest, I guess, to a real live music show on TV. It was originally co-hosted by Jools, though the mirthless and musically intrusive David Sanborn (must he play with every damn artist on the show?) took over full-time in the second season. Even cable didn't serve up much more -- 120 MINUTES on MTV being the best, I suppose, but MTV outside of the 120 confines always served up a crap:quality ratio of 4:1 or worse. Seventeen hair-metal power ballads to every Pixies video, y'know. To the Brits who think we're awash in music on TV over here: please let me know where those programmes can be located! Thanks! :-) later, Miles ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 16 Jun 2003 13:31:53 EDT From: Superflyww9@aol.com Subject: Re: [idealcopy] EBTG on OGWT In a message dated 6/16/03 9:28:36 AM, wireadmin@mindspring.com writes: << Even cable didn't serve up much more -- 120 MINUTES on MTV being the best, I suppose, but MTV outside of the 120 confines always served up a crap:quality ratio of 4:1 or worse.

They're from Williamsburg along with the Yeah Yeah Yeahs and The Liars (I think). Very enjoyable B-52s influenced three-piece comprising the aforementioned Rogers Sisters on guitar and drums and a very sweaty guy on bass. They did Shadowplay as an encore and it held up. Their album Purely Evil is under-recorded, so try and catch them live.

I didn't hear about > WIRE from watching TV. Well they're never on it are they! There's a new music channel over here called The Amp. *Some* pretty good stuff on it, if you like bands like YYY's, Radiohead, etc. Recent tv hilites... Yeah Yeah Yeahs on Later. Maps is great. (And the bit where Joe Jackson sang 'Look over there' and the audience en masse shouted 'where' - bringing a smile to JJ's face - was pretty good too). Last Fri Jonathan Ross show. Music from The Coral, and yet another great performance by the fabulous Johhnny Vegas. Even Jim Carey - treating a chat show as a vehicle for a Jim Carey 'performance' - was pretty entertaining...
