The Week In Shows: 8/26-9/1

Monday morning is the perfect time to plot ones weekly live music schedule, I think. Let's take a look at what's happening in the greater DC metro this week, with the added bonus of filling you in on what I'll be taking in over the course of the week. Hot diggity!

And all of a sudden, it was the last week in August. I don't know about y'all, but I have no idea how that happened. Not that I'm not totally stoked. I make no bones that Fall is my favorite (and the best) season, so I'm loving the creepingly shorter nights and occasional smidge of autumnal breeziness. In the meantime, let's put our heads together to see what's happening over the course of the last week in August. Shows I plan on attending are double starred, as always.
