For this week’s installment of Vintage Video we spotlight a band we don’t get to write about often enough on this site: The Housemartins, the self-declared ‘fourth best band in Hull.’ You can see the indie-pop band perform a 23-minute set for the ‘Hold Tight!’ program on the U.K.’s Granada Television in June 1986.

Been a while since our last installment of Vintage Video, and even though that post featured the legendary Hüsker Dü, this clips was to good to pass up. The straight-from-VHS video quality’s not the best, but the band’s appearance on a Twin Cities daytime talk show called ‘Good Company’ in April 1986 is priceless.

Morrissey returned to the American late-night airwaves tonight with an appearance on TBS’ ‘Conan,’ performing ‘People Are The Same Everywhere’ — one of a handful of new songs debuted live earlier this year — for the gangly red-headed host and his studio audience.

With his Thanksgiving-eve “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” outdoor concert canceled, Morrissey now has scheduled a second Los Angeles show to fill that night off. Moz will perform a newly announced concert Wednesday night at the Henry Fonda Theatre in Hollywood.

Now that he’s unemployed, former R.E.M. frontman Michael Stipe has plenty of time on his hands, which might explain his drop-in at the end of Thursday night’s ‘The Colbert Report.’ Stephen Colbert paid fitting tribute to ‘legendary rockers The R.E.M.s,’ then permanently enshrined Stipe on his ‘rock ‘n’ roll shelf of fame.’

If you caught the ‘Late Show with David Letterman’ last night, you may have seen Peter Gabriel perform his classic ‘Red Rain’ backed by the New Blood Orchestra. However, he also performed a full hour-long concert from the Letterman studio that was webcast, which you can see here.

As promised back in August, Morrissey will augment his upcoming U.S. tour with a pair of television appearances: He’ll perform on ABC’s ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’ on Nov. 23 and then on TBS’s ‘Conan’ on Nov. 29, according to fansite and quasi-official news outlet True To You.
