Billboard spike with Television's guitarist Richard Lloyd about the band's current plans. Although the band released it's last studio album in 1992, they are considering entering the studio again. Lloyd told Billboard "We have quite a few new songs which get performed live, and we also talk about recording from time to time…Currently we do not have record company funding, but [we] may do some recording anyway… Although recording new material is desirable, we are in no hurry, which is par for our course."

The NYC band has been touring in recent years. They are performing under 15 shows a year at locations around the globe. The next shows lined up are September 25th in Tokyo, the 21st in San Francisco and the 27th at the Asagiri Jam Festival in Fujinomiya, Japan. Lloyd has been busy touring and recording with Rocket From The Tombs, the late '70s Cleveland band that featured future Pere Ubu frontman David Thomas and Dead Boys guitarist Cheetah Chrome. Rocket From The Tombs will tour the U.S. in November and December. As previously reported, Rhino will re-release the classic Television albums 'Marquee Moon' and 'Adventure' as well as a live record 'Live at the Old Waldorf' on September 23rd.
