The Week In Shows: 3/5/18-3/11/18

The wee small hours in the middle of the week seem 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!

Next week's calendar is coming early, friends, because I'll be across the ocean and probably not spending too much time on the interwebs. Yes, your faithful hostess is leaving you for a few days to go gallivant across England and Ireland. While I'm doing that, you should be checking out some of the excellent shows coming through the DC area next week. For real, this is one of the strongest weeks so far in 2018 as far as live music is concerned. 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. Bonus: catch yours truly at any show with an asterisk next to it.

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!
