Concert Listings Roundup #31

You can read more about why I'm doing listings here. Long story short: This curated and decidedly non-comprehensive list contains nothin' but shows that I am going to/would go to if I had more time.


Gigs of the week:

One of the biggest weeks of the year, Wavelength's annual anniversary festival is a snapshot of some of the best emerging talent in the city — and the community that surrounds it. One new venue makes its debut, one old venue makes a welcome return, and there are two great (free/all ages) afternoon events as well.
