  Worth adding (if they can be found):

  The Mission on Rick Dees' late-show show (ill-fated)

  Killing Joke on Jon Stewart's MTV show

  Devo on "Square Pegs"

  and, FEAR on SNL (which I wrote about here):

    I think Wire are missing a Gilbert, without Bruce...

    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!
