The Week In Shows: 8/14/17-8/20/17

A humid as all get-out Saturday afternoon in August 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!

Talk about a dark and stormy night last night. Are we closing in on the Dog Days? As long as there's good music around, who cares, right? 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!
