Television Personalities frontman Dan Treacy is critically ill and receiving treatment in hospital, NME has been told. The cult singer-songwriter – whose first full-length Television Personalities album 'And Don't The Kids Just Love It' was released in 1980 – is currently receiving treatment in intensive care after undergoing major surgery to remove a blood clot to his brain, and has been in an induced coma for the last 48 hours. At present, it is unclear as how Treacy sustained the injury, but a police investigation is reportedly underway. A statement released by Television Personalities members TexasBob Juarez, Mike Stone and Arnau Obiols said: The band is very much concerned for our dear friend and Brother Daniel at this time, and we are all praying for a recovery. hope he pulls through. Incidentally I was so fucked at the Dustins gig I didn't even realise they played TVP's Where's Bill Grundy Now

Can't say it's surprising, the guy has looked in a bad shape for all his life. Sad news anyway.
