Television

Arguably the most interesting band on the mid-’70s New York punk scene, Television's extended, fluid guitar jams and cryptic lyrics set them apart from hard-’n’-fast peers like the Ramones and the New York Dolls. Their occasional reunion shows over the last two decades have proved they can still kill it on stage, so this gig comes highly recommended despite the absence of original guitarist Richard Lloyd (who left in 2007 for the sake of his health).
