The Week In Shows: 6/11/18-6/17/18

A Friday evening after a long and annoying work week 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 coming week, shall we? Hot diggity!

What a week it's been. Highs (oh hey, Stanley Cup champion Caps!). Lows (farewell, Kate Spade and Anthony Bourdain). Everything in between. Next week your hostess celebrates another year around the sun, and I hope your week will be full of extra good times. 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!
