Note: You can click on city, country, genre, etc., to re-sort the list that way. The little cassette icon on the left means there's an mp3 posted.

Yes, folks, it's that time of year again....I know it's a lot to sort through, but you haven't let me down yet! I value your opinions and they are always greatly appreciated!

WHO should I add to my list???

I've been utilizing the "add to calendar" feature, so I just copied and pasted what I've got so far. Some of these are "must sees," some are just friends of mine, some are bands other people told me to check out, but I may have a conflict (nothing is stopping me from seeing The Pretenders, for example), and some bands I found on my own, cuz they're just weird or unique (check out Ex-girl - LOL!)...bands listed as playing at 11:11 AM are currently shown as TBAs on the list, they're still finalizing the line-up times for that night. I just hope my boys deSol are not playing the same time as The Pretenders. I know they've got a day gig at Redrum too. The High Times party is Thursday afternoon. Most bands play during the day too (record stores, parties, etc.) so I can always try to see them then if I have a conflict in the evening.
