The Week In Shows: 5/20/19-5/26/19


It's starting to feel like summer, and while I know some of you are excited about it, seeing the mugginess and the mosquitoes start to turn up has me less than thrilled. And it's unreal to think that Memorial Day weekend is next weekend. If you're getting out of town, make sure you're on the road before everyone else! Without further ado, here's a look at some of the shows I happen to recommend for the coming week in the greater DC metro area. Bonus: catch yours truly at any show with an asterisk next to it.
