[kj] Friday Fun for Everyone: Incongruous US TV Appearances

[Karen Weil]

Gang of Four on Dance Fever? Patti Smith on the "Kids" show? Good. Gawd. 
Well, stranger things have happened. I think.
Thanks for passing those on. 

Cheers,

Karen

  There would be no DM, if it wasn't for Danny Miller ;)
  No Plastikman, Luke Slater, a stable for Barry Adamson's solo work.....

  True. I think Wire never got the credit they deserved. Saw em' open for Depeche Mode in 88' @ the Rose Bowl and people were throwing shit at them! I was like WTF? If it wasn't for Wire there would be no DM!
