Television Personalities: The documentary.


I had a hard time watching this sweedish documentary yesterday. It truly is the dark side of Dan Treacy. From what I can gather you can only watch it on the internet and it runs about 20 minutes total.  I wouldn't say the Television Personalities were a total bust. They managed to release a excellent stream of singles and some great underrated albums. 
Whatever personal problems,  hang ups, drug addiction  etc. that Dan might have shouldn't belittle his accomplishments. He should feel very proud of his contributions to popular music, no matter how small. I guess bitterness hits harder for some at middle age. I hope he can put his panic attacks aside and move on with his life and accept the change around himself no matter how crappy the outcome.
