Television Personalities

Well, I have to say that that gig was well worth the trip down from Middlesbrough. The 100 Club was packed out and it was such a great night.
Here's one from the Dan Treacy tribute gig. http://www.facebook.com/cheche.misterx/ ... 136318398/

I had Nervous Twitch on at my Get Hip club night the other week. Below is a review that someone did of the night. Jay & Erin from Nervous Twitch are fans of the TVP's and will be at the Dan Treacy tribute gig next month. https://digthatgroove1.wordpress.com/2018/09/30/gig-review-60-nervous-twitch-ge...

An old one but one I only heard for the 1st time this week.
Kotolis covering 'Hard Luck Story Number 39'.

Well, I managed to get the time off work and am looking forward to this gig next month.

Any idea which members of The TVP's will be appearing at this gig? I'd love to make the trip from the North East but very much doubt I'll be able to get the time off work.

Saw this on Facebook yesterday. AGMP Concerts and Complete Control proudly present "...And Don't The Kids Just Love It" A Celebration of the Genius of Daniel Treacy featuring members of Television Personalities with some very special guests. Thursday 8th November 2018 // London, The 100 Club Tickets...

I came across this site today via Facebook with a few photos of The TVPs from 1984.

Here is the 1st RSD LP on Discogs - http://www.discogs.com/Television-Perso ... e/10172502

In case anyone is wondering, it was the first 4 albums by the Television Personalities that were reissued for Record Store Day - 'And Don't The Kids Just Love It', Mummy Your Not Watching Me', 'Could Of Been Bigger Than The Beatles' and 'The Painted Word'.

There's a decent feature on the TVPs in the latest issue of Shindig! magazine (issue 69). Altogether there's 5 pages on the band which includes contributions from Jowe Head & Joe Foster along with a few photos. The magazine also mentions that the first 4 Television Personalities LP's are getting rei...

Paul Orwell 'Blowing Your mind Away'. Such a brilliant album but why has it taken me so long to getting round to picking up a copy???

Anyway, here's a clip for those of you who haven't heard Paul Orwell before .

I heard that Ed Ball has officially retired from music. Shame as I never did get to see him live either with The Times, TVPs or solo but he was stood next to me once at a gig, I was just too shy to say hello. Canadian record label The Beautiful Music are planning on putting out a tribute album to Ed...

I'm planning to visit Dan very soon. Based on past experience...he's upbeat sometimes...sometimes down... Any well-wishings will be appreciated. Just let Dan know that people are still thinking of him and wish him all the best from me. I was having a bit of a TVPs day today spinning 3 of their albu...

I was just wondering what records by The TVP's were released for yesterdays Record Store Day?
I know that the debut album and 'Could Of Been Bigger Than The Beatles' were reissued, but where they any others?

One that most probably already know about, The Futureheads 'A Picture Of Dorian Gray'.
This was released on one of the band ealy EP's.
