Live Music Calendar

050730_bands.jpg

Four-day work weeks screw us up, too -- which is why you're seeing the concert calendar on Wednesday. It doesn't matter though, there are still plenty of good shows left to see this week. Two really good shows to choose from tomorrow night: Strokes guitarist Albert Hammond, Jr. will hit Warehouse Live, while local favorites The Scattered Pages will provide your coffee sipping entertainment at Brasil. Friday night, hit one of the best intimate venues in town, Anderson Fair, and see Austin's The Hudsons(show canceled). Saturday night, there are many good local acts playing the area, including our own Hayes Carll returning to the Mucky Duck. For those who don't mind traveling a bit, you can catch a good double bill with Stevie Nicks and Chris Isaak in The Woodlands.
