The Band from TV concert slated for Saturday at the Alliant Energy Center Coliseum has been canceled, the facility announced Friday evening.

No explanation was offered for the decision to pull the plug on the event, which will not be rescheduled.

Tickets purchased with credit cards via Ticketmaster's website, Ticketmaster's Charge-by-Phone or at the Coliseum Box Office will be automatically refunded.

Credit card purchases made at Ticketmaster outlets and all cash ticket purchases will be refunded at the point of purchase in exchange for the ticket. These refunds will be available beginning Monday.

The Band from TV, which is comprised of a group of moonlighting actors that includes Hugh Laurie of "House" and James Denton of "Desperate Housewives," performs gigs for charity throughout the country.

The group was profiled in Thursday's edition of 77 Square.

Saturday's show was to raise money for the Epilepsy Foundation of Southern Wisconsin, along with other charities chosen by band members.
