When I contacted the club on Thursday to make sure we were playing (because we weren't listed in The Voice or on the website,) I was told that "the club was shut on Friday with no sign of re-opening anytime soon if at all." There are some blogs/articles online that say it was temporarily closed due to a Department of Health violation and from the looks of their website they have shows scheduled from May 8th on. But then again, they had our show listed as of 2 days ago, so I don't know how reliable the website is.
I don't have any real facts to give anyone, I just know what they told me, but here are the articles I found in case this helps:

I also tried frantically to find another venue to reschedule to but that didn't work either. (Obviously.)
We have some more shows coming up, May 19th at Trash Bar is another Strand Band party hosted by our dear friend Romeo, and we're playing at Goodbye Blue Monday on June 13th and the Crafty Records BBQ up in the Bronx the following Saturday. Just check back every month or so and you should see updates for our upcoming shows.
Thank you all for the birthday wishes!!! You are the best! And hopefully I'll get to see everybody soon.
