Tuesday: Travs, Isaac Alexander on 'The CLEANER' and John Barry



UPDATE: Song didn't play, but there still seems to be a chance that it will down the road. Stay tuned.

Set your TiVos. Tonight, at some point during "The Cleaner" (9 p.m., A&E), hopefully when Benjamin Bratt is confronting a heroin addict,   "The Closer" (8 p.m., TNT), probably when Kyra Sedgwick is having a relective moment*, Isaac Alexander's "See Thru Me" may, if the assurances of corporate TV hold true, feature in the soundtrack. There are some skeptics, but I'm willing to bump "Futurama" out of my TiVo spot.

The Texas League Championship starts at Dickey-Stephens, too. The Travs take on the Frisco RoughRiders in game 1 at 7:10 p.m., $6-$10.

And author John Barry ("Rising Tide," "The Great Influenza") lectures at the main library, 6:30 p.m., free.

AND: As Chris King notes below, buzzy indie-band the New Up, from San Francisco, is at Sticky Fingerz. Local rockers Notion open, 9 p.m., $5.

*Easy mistake.
