(TV) Hypothetical question from the Toronto Globe and Mail



"Without the Velvets (and its primary writer and singer Lou Reed),
there would be no Patti Smith, no Cowboy Junkies, no Smiths, no Luna,
no Tom Verlaine, no Yo La Tengo, no R.E.M., no Joy Division, no
Pavement, no Sonic Youth, no Pixies, no Jesus and Mary Chain, no
Raveonettes, no Strokes."

No Tom Verlaine? Verlaine never talks about the VU as an influence,
ever. Nor (off the top of my head) any heavily VU-influenced band,
does he?
