Cocorosie – “After the Afterlife”
May 1, 2013
The legendary New York band led by Tom Verlaine played for the first time in Argentina on Tuesday April 23 to a packed Vorterix Theatre.
After forty years of history, Television made their fans dreams come true playing in Buenos Aires with a nearly complete original lineup: Tom Verlaine on vocals and atmospheric guitars, Fred Smith on bass, Billy Ficca on drums and the already declared Argentine resident, Jimmy Rip replacing the guitarist Richard Lloyd.
During a show that lasted almost an hour and a half, Television played some of their essential hits such as “Venus” and “Marquee Moon”, both from his acclaimed debut album. They also gave some hints of what their fourth and upcoming LP will be. At the end of the show they played “I’m Gonna Find You” and “Psychotic Reaction,” a Count Five cover.
Enjoy the pictures!
La mítica banda neoyorkina liderada por Tom Verlaine se presentó por primera vez en la Argentina el pasado martes 23 de Abril, ante un Teatro Vorterix repleto.
A cuarenta años de sus inicios, Television materializó la leyenda pisando por primera vez Buenos Aires con una formación original casi completa: Tom Verlaine en voces y guitarras atmosféricas, Fred Smith en bajo, Billy Ficca en batería y, el ya declarado residente argentino, Jimmy Rip en reemplazo del guitarrista Richard Lloyd.
A lo largo de una hora y media no se hicieron faltar clásicos, en honor a los nostálgicos, como “Venus” y “Marquee Moon”, ambos de su aclamado álbum debut, y algunas pistas de lo que será la cuarta placa de Television. El cierre llegó con “I’m Gonna Find You” y “Psychotic Reaction”, cover de Count Five.
