The Week In Shows: 4/23-4/27

A beautiful, actually sort of Spring-like early afternoon is as good a time as any 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 may or may not be taking in over the course of the week. Hot diggity!

This week is another allergy-abbreviated week...I still love you Spring, but I can't wait until these trees have gotten over this whole pollen thing. Plenty of good stuff rolling through town over the next few weeks, and I'm pleased as punch. As always, anything that's starred has a high forecast of yours truly being there.
