40 Shows in 52 Weeks

In the comments section of a music article, I read about a man whose goal was to see 42 music shows in 2012--the year he turned 42.  I think setting a music goal is fabulous so I decided to set one. I am not 42. :)  However, since I'm a huge music fan in a city with tons of live music, I aimed high and set a similar goal of 42 bands/musicians in 52 weeks. Along the way, I'd like to document as many as possible on the blog.  Maybe finally have a reason to keep coming around here.

Free Week is the first week (though it seems to now be two weeks!) of January and a chance to catch so many great local bands.  There is an incredible amount of talent in this city and it's so amazing to see the support they get from local venues and music fans.  Either of these bands is worth seeing anytime and anywhere!
