For what it's worth department:


I was reading my subscribed RS copy way back when I saw a little box
mentioning that Television had broken up. One of the members said that
they decided to break up during a full moon because Moby Grape broke up
during a full moon. I was a huge Grape fan (still am) so I ran out, bought
Marquee Moon and never looked back. It wasn't until years later that I
realized that the supposed connection was the tragedy of being a critical
darling with no fan base.

So if it wasn't for RS, I would never be giving my wife 16 tulips every year
on her birthday - quite possibly the most obscure romantic gesture in Rock
and Roll history.
