Showlist December 12, 2008

Hey all-

Quiet week here at the list. Catching up on a bunch of things, finishing up the shopping, playing with my daughter, getting sucked into the huge time suck vortex that is facebook.

Lots of new shows added, but I still need submissions. More submissions = more better.

There are a lot of cool non-music events coming up. The now nearly famous Black Cat Rock and Shop is on the 21st, and this weekend is the Washington Glass School holiday sale and open house (2-6pm www.wasgglassschool.com).

Anyway, I am off to see if I can get me some of that bailout money....

later,
pete
