The Week In Shows: 10/9/17-10/15/17

Another unseasonably warm morning in October 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!

Jet lag is a terrible, terrible thing, my friends. All I have wanted to do since I got back on Wednesday is sleep. If only! There's too much to do to sleep all day, including checking out some of the great shows coming to town. 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!
