The Week In Shows: 7/9/18-7/15/18

A sultry Thursday evening seems as good a time as any to plot ones weekly show schedule, I think. Let's take a look at what's happening in the greater DC metro this coming week, shall we? Hot diggity!

Yours truly will be at the beach/off the grid this weekend, my friends, so the calendar is coming to you earlier than usual. I plan on doing not much of anything, with the added appeal of doing all this not much of anything by the river. I hope you've got some plans for the weekend, be they rambunctious, restful, or straight up naughty. Enjoy the respite. The shows are ramping up, starting with next week! 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!
