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

A sunny Sunday 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!

Obviously, the week ahead is a pretty important week. I hope you've taken care of your voter registration, have your ride figured out, and know how you need to vote. Seriously, don't be one of the apathetic non-voters. This is not the time to stay home and sit on your couch pretending the results won't impact your life. Do the right thing.

From a musical standpoint, there's a whole lot happening in greater DC this week. Get out there and see some live music! 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!
