The Week In Shows: 8/4-8/10

An overcast, rather sleepy Saturday morning seems 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 this abbreviated week. Hot diggity!

Am I alone in thinking allergies in the DC metro are the worst of all time this year? I feel like all I do these days is work and sleep. And listen to music, of course. These are my picks for your upcoming week, friends, so I hope you'll seriously consider attending a few of these. And you never know, I just might see you out and about during the week. Your blogstress just might be at shows indicated with a star.
