A lighter week for concerts, but many home-state bred musicians are in town. Tomorrow night, we recommend San Antonio's Girl In A Coma, but if you prefer 90's rock, you might want to catch Dallas' The Toadies return to Verizon Wireless. Speaking of returns, Bandera's Robert Earl Keen brings his annual Christmas show to town Friday night. Saturday, Warehouse Live is hosting a few local bands, headlined by Million Year Dance. Not from Texas, but a great R&B peformer Musiq Soulchild plays at the Arena Theater the same night.

Cant wait for the Million Year Dance show. Thanks for listing it. They are supposed to be playing a bunch of new stuff. Their last album won the 2007 Houston Press Music Awards "Album of the Year".
