Cable teevee goodies

Well, the dealer cable guy was just here and he finished installing my new addiction one month of free cable. The first thing I find is an unexpected treat: a Simple Minds concert from 1995 on some channel called Trio. I'd only ever seen them live once, in 1985, when the success of that song from The Breakfast Club made it possible for their tour to make it all the way down to Miami. I've got to get my videotape machine hooked up to this teevee. (The machine is attached to the useless bedroom teevee, which is only set to get the first twenty-five channels or so.)

Somewhere in my parent's basement is my 12" extended mix of "Promised you a Miracle." Sigh. Now I'm gonna have to go find a copy of that song somewhere.

Heh heh I have the album it came on (New Gold Dream) but I never got the extended mix.

Trio, I believe, is an arts channel, consisting of programs from the British Commonwealth. Lots of stuff from Australia, for example.
