Bandgeek!: the definitive area concert list for August 11-17
Just think, 25 years ago Fugazi played a $5, all ages show in Fresno and you probably weren’t there. Twenty five years from now, you might be sad to think you missed one of the dozens of concerts happening this week. I’ve collected them here, so you won’t be able to say you didn’t know. It’s another installment of BANDGEEEEK!
