Concert Listings Roundup #330

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.


Gig of the week:

Track Could Bend #57 (feat. Daniel Pencer / No Angels Dancing / Patrick O'Reilly) / Wenona Lodge 2019-12-03 (Tuesday – PWYC!) [FB event]

Things are starting to hit that December slowdown, but there's still plenty of interesting doings afoot — lots of cool sounds at the Tranzac on Sunday and maybe the week's out-est show in the basement of comix shop The Beguiling on Friday. But I'll overcome my humility and dislike of self-promotion to suggest that this edition of Track Could Bend might be very worth your time. A reunion of the original No Angels Dancing duo of Allison Cameron and D. Alex Meeks, plus steps into the mystery zone from Dan Pencer and Patrick O'Reilly — it all sounds like a sure path to enlightening entertainment.
