Thurs. Dec. 13 With Christmas approaching, charitable urges bubble up and the Boston rock community has been playing benefit Christmas gigs for years and years. Barry Marshall used to helm up one helluva show at the old Channel, and Chandler Tra vis is doing it for the fourth straight year at Johnny D's Thursday Dec. 13. He's an "aggressive agnostic," but that doesn't stop him. He calls this the Boston Christmas Cavalcade for the Homeless, and it benefits Bread & Roses of Cambridge. Chandler's got two of his bands playing alongside some other notables. Full lineup, as of now: Ramona Silver, Willie Alexander, Amy Fairchild, Session Americana, The Downbeat 5, Shaun Wortis, Rose Polenzani, Andy Pratt, Merrie Amsterberg, Ryan Landry, T. Max, The Shook Family Singers, Uke Springsteen, The Incredible Casuals, The Chandler Travis Philharmonic & The Philharmonic Trombone Shout Band. Suggested donation: $15. Starts at 8:30. Merriment pretty much assured.
