Television Personalities – Geoffrey Ingram

Television Personalities - And Don't the Kids Just Love It

I was there when in December 2002 the Television Personalities made its comeback, after singer Dan Treacy had spent some time in prison. The mini festival in London where they played turned out to be quite pivotal for my life, though not because of the band. About whom there are a lot of things to say, but they did write some of the finest late punk/early indiepop songs, such as this Geoffrey Ingram. This song is for Andreas, whose smile that weekend I can still remember and who, I learned, passed away early this month.
