The Week In Shows: 12/5-12/11

The first Saturday in December 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!

There are but 28 days left in the super crazy year known as 2016. While we're getting ready to say adieu to these infamous 12 months, might as well get out and see some good shows. Without further ado, I present a look at some of the shows I happen to recommend for the coming week. Here's a look at some suggested shows if you're in the DC metro. And if you happen to see an asterisk by a show, I'll be there. You should too.

And as an aside, if you've got a show coming up you'd like me to consider including in my weekly calendar, just shoot me an email with "Calendar" somewhere in the subject line. Thanks y'all!
