Watch Television Performing “Marquee Moon” This Week in Brazil

Apr 20th, 2013 in Music

Little Johnny Jewel 45

One of the seminal, mid-70s, art-punk bands out of New York City, Television, has been away from the scene and hasn’t released a proper studio album since 1992.  Their first two albums. Marquee Moon and Adventure, remain amongst the best rock albums ever put to acetate.  Tom Verlaine recently pulled the band together (sadly, minus Richard Lloyd), and on Wednesday this week they played at Beco 203 in Sao Paulo, Brazil.  Check Tom Verlaine and the gents lay it all out on the classic Marquee Moon below.  Make sure you stick with the video for the entire 12+ minutes.  You can thank us later.  Alive and kicking Television!!  The setlist is at bottom.  Good luck finding much current information about the band on the interwebs.  Thus far, we’ve only been able to deduce that they will play a few festivals in Japan and Australia.

Set List:

Prove It
Jericho
Little Johnny Jewel
Glory
The Fire
Breaking In My Heart
Persia
The Sea
Marquee Moon

Encore:
Venus
(I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction
(The Rolling Stones cover)
