Television

NYC art rockers Television must have more Japanese fans than they realised. After selling out their shows at Shimokitazawa Garden and Kichijoji's Club Seata, Tom Verlaine and pals have added another date to their Tokyo schedule. Tickets are on sale now for this extra gig at the intimate Koenji High – and you can probably expect them to go quickly. Verlaine will be performing with founder member Billy Cicca, plus longtime bassist Fred Smith and relatively new recruit Jimmy Rip.
