Now you weren't paying attention to earlier aspersions cast upon this
appearance when it was announced, and still sight unseen, were ya Steve?  :-)

This is what I figured they'd do.  The show drives me up the wall
because of this.  They did the same thing for "Wall Of Voodoo",
completely IGNORING the lead singer (Stan Ridgeway, who is still out
there making decent albums) and two other members, and instead focused
on one of the guitarists who's splits his time between soundtracks for
porno films and a leather/fetish shop.

>Argh.  Nice research, VH1.
Research?  Oh, Mr. Swann, you're too kind...
