[DID NOT ATTEND: September 10, 2025] Superchunk / Tee Vee Repairmann
I’ve been a fan of Superchunk forever, but I only got to see them a few years ago for the first time. I saw them once more and kind of thought I didn’t need to see them again. However, when they announced this show at Ardmore Music Hall, I thought it would be a great place to see them. So I grabbed a ticket and was really looking forward to the show.
When I found out that my favorite artist made a poster for the tour (see right), I was even more excited to go.
I had been to two shows already this week (Pulp being basically spontaneous), so it was strongly suggested that I should stay home Wednesday night. I had already given up on going to see Supergrass on Thursday, so I thought I might be able to sneak in this show, but I stayed home instead and had a delightful evening.
Tee Vee Repairmann is Sydney, Australia’s Ishka Edmeades. There must be something n the air in Australia, because Edmeades is almost as prolific as King Gizzard. He is (or is in) all of these bands (I haven’t heard of any of them): Satanic Togas, Set-Top Box, Research Reactor Corp, Gee Tee, Remote Control, Mainframe, 3D & The Holograms.
As Tee Vee Repairmann he writes short (like 2 minute) songs that are pop/garage punk. Fun and simple, they’d be a perfect match for Superchunk. (Live, he has a full band, who I assume played with him for these shows.
