Posted H-Town Rock to Houstonist
For the weekend of November 5th - 8th, 2009
See?! We told you there would be plenty of music this weekend. Never doubt Papa Houstonist. Unfortunately we won't be in town for much of the weekend [we have, on the other hand, the good fortune of attending our sister Austinist's FunFunFun Fest], but that doesn't mean we'll pass on making a few recommendations to you, dedicated reader.

Airon swore us to secrecy, however, lest we unintentionally spur a douche-ification of his favorite dining spot. You can listen to the full 24 minute interview [complete with Steven's million-dollar flashbulb idea] here. There is the occasional dirty word, so get some headphones if you're at work.
For the week of November 2nd - 4th, 2009 Houstonist hopes you got plenty of candy this weekend - we had plenty of the liquid, booze-filled variety. It's a light week here at H-Town Rock, but it should pick up this weekend when Austin's FunFunFun Fest drags some bands through town.
