Happy New Year! |
| Happy New Year everyone! It's going to be an interesting time for TV watchers - I hope to bring you a brand new album and the fifth (and final) volume of my tour diaries in the coming year. Live dates kick off with the annual massive tour with the UK Subs, this time taking in Scandinavia as well as our usual European stops. There will be plenty more solo gigs coming after that, as well as a one-off appearance with the Bored Teenagers at Rebellion reprising the "Best Of Adverts" show. I'll be putting up news of further gigs soon - in the meantime please note the venue for the Dortmund gig on the Subs tour has changed. Hope to see plenty of you at gigs in the coming twelve months! Cheers, TV |

TV TIMES - THE COMPLETE SERIES FOR
SALE
Between 1980-1984, members of TV Smith's fan club received
a free fanzine, running from two to twenty pages, for 43 issues.
The entire series has now been archived on CD, 357 black/white
pages of text and images (.bmp) comprising a priceless 357
page archive not only of TV Smith, Adverts and TV Smith's
Explorers news, interviews, reviews etc, but also a wealth
of related artists... Richard Strange (including a 1981 interview),
Doctors of Madness (including a complete band history), Lords
of the New Church (three very early interviews, pre-first
album), Ian Mitchell Band, Last Touch, many more.
Includes discographies, biographies, family trees, press cuttings,
much more. Unpublished in any other form. Photos were taken
from one of no more than three surviving complete sets, and
reflect the occasionally haphazard photocopying that characterized
the series - however, all are readable, while the bmp/bitmap
format allows the user to print and reconfigure pages at will.
Disc also includes a couple of unpublished issues, and color
originals of several covers.
PRICE $15 + shipping: $1 USA, $2 international.
