[kj] Wire appearance on Suzanne Summers n 1986

[LONESTYLE at aol.com]

True. I think Wire never got the credit they deserved. Saw em' open for  
Depeche Mode in 88' @ the Rose Bowl and people were throwing shit at them! I 
was  like WTF? If it wasn't for Wire there would be no DM!

"Ahead" and "The Ideal Copy" were the big  college radio hits for Wire in  
'87, as you well know.
You know Wire -- they just had to bend the  rules when it came to 
mainstream late-night shows. ; )

That is so fuckin odd! You know I didn't even know she had a late night  tv 
show? It must of went off the air quick for I watched late night TV back  
then. And I don't remember that song being a hit on the radio? Not even on  
KXLU college radio.

"In  the craziest TV appearance from 1986 . British Avant-Punk band Wire 
appear  on a short lived late night talk show hosted by Suzanne Summers. Flash 
 forward 24 years and Wire are still putting out great music but Summers is 
 pimping product on late night infomercials."
