Concert Listings Roundup #222

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:

U.S. Girls (Hexagon [Oct. 27th] / Cindy Lee [Oct. 28th]) / The Tranzac (Main Hall) 2017-10-27–2017-10-28 (Friday + Saturday) [FB event]

With an ace new single out in the world, U.S. Girls (currently in band form) hits The Tranzac for a pair of hometown shows before hitting the road. Top-notch openers, both nights, too, so don't miss this in all the Hallowe'en hullabaloo.
