The Overture: Sept. 13 – 19
Hey, did you know that the Courtyard Cafe and IMC still have shows?
It’s a short week, but with school in full swing, local venues are packing bands in left and right. Let’s do this thing.
This week brings together locals, touring bands and at least one homecoming.
It’s never too early in the semester to blow off your classes for some rock ‘n roll, be you student, TA, professor or new University president.
This week will see a few thousand kids coming in who are unfamiliar with the scene — so try and make them feel welcome.
As usual, we pick five local shows to lambaste for not being cool enough (or too cool), then we pat ourselves on the back for a job well done.
We’re in a bit of an off week locally, but that’s just a good reason to head to some of the venues in town you might not get to normally.
We’re heading into a pretty good weekend for local music, including a couple of reunions shows and two multi-night festivals with diverse lineups.
Death metal, garage rock, and the false-death of Dubstep Massacre.
We apologize in advance to the majority of you who just wanted to figure out if there was a show worth going to this Thursday night.
