The Week In Shows: 10/8/18-10/14/18

A dare I say nearly Autumnal Saturday afternoon 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!

October is here, the good shows are all around, and the leaves are even turning. If it wasn't for the humidity, your hostess would be rather content. There's a lot coming through in this next week, so start working on your show multi-tasking. 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!
