The Week In Shows: 4/10/17-4/16/17

A perfect spring Sunday afternoon in April 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!

The weather is divine, for now. Just in time for the preponderance of shows that is imminent in the area. We are lucky indeed. And now, without further ado, here's a look at some of the shows I happen to recommend for the coming week in the greater DC metro area.

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!
