Update: Oops! The entire Chandler Travis Philharmonic will not be playing in Belmont on March 14 (as I stated below), just the Chandler Travis 4.

*******************
Last Thursday, we urged you to go see the Chandler Travis Philharmonic tonight at Toast Lounge in Union Square, where the band has been playing a regular Wednesday night gig. Well, wouldn't you just know it, the lounge has canceled tonight's show. Travis (above) tells us it's because they're staining the bar, among other renovations, which may take another few weeks. The kitchen is also closed. So we advise you to contact Toast before you head over.

In the meantime, if you want to see Travis's Philharmonic, "the missing link between Sun Ra and the Kinks," as he describes it, the nine-piece band is playing in a benefit March 14 at the Second Friday Coffeehouse in Belmont.

Hopefully the coffeehouse, which is at a church, doesn't have a bar it feels the need to stain anytime soon.
