The Overture

Our Smile Politely Show Series debut is happening this week, so that show is featured this week (with no shame) as well as some other quality shows.

A slower week for music, but even in the calmest conditions there's still something brewing in C-U.

A variety of shows this week including a couple that feature pretty awesome touring bands. Lots to look out for even after a busy Record Store Day weekend.

As if Record Store Day 2012 wasn't already enough reason to get out and see music this week, there's plenty of others worth mentioning. You have no excuses.

The legendary John Prine pays a visit to the Virginia Theater, some weird music provided by the Frankenstein Brothers, and a debut of a new local outfit hit C-U this week.

Some international flavor mixed into the typically great C-U music diet, you'll be full after this week.

Plenty of shows spread out over the week building up to the Pygmalion Afterglow show with Elsinore and Common Loon.

Cursive comes to town this week as the Pygmalion Spring Show Series rolls on — plus a handful of other noteworthy shows to see. We're awfully spoiled here in C-U.

A lot of excellent bands you might not be too familiar with, but per usual, a solid set of shows this week.
