Television was never the most visually exciting band to see. I never saw
them with Richard Hell, but I hear he liked to put on more of a show than
the rest of the guys.
So I guess some people can interpret this as disinterest. But I know from
talking to them, they are having a good time. Of course I wasn't at the
Roskilde festival but I find it hard to believe that Tom "mumbled a word or
two" of Marquee Moon.
