This Week's Tour News

Okay folks rather then list every band that announces tours as they are announced, I have decided to just post a list of all the eye-opening bands that will be coming through town once a week. There will be links and mp3's and all the other stuff you love. Hopefully this will serve as a quick handy guide when you are looking for something to do two months from today.
