Portishead on Current TV
I got the Press Release from Current's people about this last week, but figured it was too good to be true. Maybe its just cause I'm in the States, but it seems this group never gives any live performances. So I took the press release with a grain of salt. But yes, Portishead actually did play a "live" convert from their hometown of (er...Portishead), which is also syndicated on the Current Network.
Since the band seems to be as reclusive as ever, it's always good to actually seem them in a live performance setting. Now, if they can only play the 9:30 Club...
Here is the full Concert from Current TV below. The network will be re-aring the concert up until the release of their new album Third, which drops on April 28th.
