Shows of the Week

Crazy assed week of music -- Halloween smack in the middle, CMJ taking up most of the rest. In honor of Tuesday, this SOTW is dressing up as "Slutty SOTW."

I've likely missed a whole slew of CMJ shows in the process, so check the site for a more complete picture of what's going on. A lot of the shows below are showcase type shows (usually anything with an "et al" on there is 5+ bands on the bill).

As always, this info is not for betting purposes, confirm on your own.

Trick or treat!!
