A crowdfunding campaign has been set up to support former Television guitarist Richard Lloyd as he battles cancer. Lloyd, who played guitar alongside Tom Verlaine on Television's classic Marquee Moon album and its two follow-ups, was diagnosed with cholangiocarcinoma, a serious form of bile duct cancer, earlier this year.
The campaign has been set up by Sean Seymour, bass player in the Richard Lloyd group, who reveals that Lloyd has tumours in his liver, including one located dangerously close to a major blood vessel, which means that surgeons are currently unwilling to operate.
