The Week in Shows: 2/1-2/7

The first Monday morning in February 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, shall we? Hot diggity!

Already February, y'all. One month down, eleven to go. February is always a questionable month as far as I'm concerned, but let's see if the show-going makes up for any other difficulties February offers up. As a reminder, you might catch me at any show with an asterisk. And I'll be picking one extra awesome show that you should not miss (unless you don't live in the DC area, of course). So here we go, a look at some recommended shows for the coming week.
