Live Music - Weekdays 'n Nights this Week, Jan 8-12 edition 2018

.
.
We're bringing you this in a different format. Venues (or the presenting series) are listed alphabetically. Then the events they're offering this week are chronological. So all of Monday's events are not listed under a heading of "Monday," and Tuesday's shows don't get their own heading, etc. Instead, all of this week's Monday-through-Friday concerts, club gigs, etc., are found by the venue where they're playing.

A major NEWS EDITION will be along soon.

Meanwhile, don't sit home.

And, oh, by the way -- WITH THE RAIN AND EVERYTHING... if the traffic is too idiotic to contemplate getting on the freeway during Monday's or Tuesday's rain, then why not find a music venue after you leave work, and spend the evening there, decompressing and gettin' yerself all tunefulized? You never know. Might catch on, and you'll find yourself doing that even when it isn't raining.

♪ THAT'S A WRAP FOR THIS EDITION
___

The Guide will return with many more inclusive
an' inquisitive an' informative an' enlightenin' features on
musical people, music groups and ensembles and collaborations,
the music industry and crazy music business,
new gear, instruments, new album releases,
and all kindsa things, continuing
forward and onward across
the spectrum of the
arts scene,
-- all in our MUSIC NEWS editions.

Throughout 2018, you can expect more interviews, previews, reviews, an' such.

AND, we'll bring you more investigative pieces on how regulatory changes and corporate and internet hegemony effect the industry and effect individual artists. Plus, word on how to keep all that cyberspying from invading your private thoughts, identifying your preferences, compiling and selling all your personal data, which is being done at a relentless pace, because they believe they can sell you more sh*t by "knowing what you want before YOU know what you want."

"They" and their artificial intelligence bots may believe all that, but around here, we respect you for being a creative human, and we offer you a wide range of things for your consideration.

Meantime, check in and LET US KNOW WHAT YOU THINK about THIS edition.

Y'all come back now, y'hear?

+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+

See you again, soon!

+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+

Seriously...
THIS IS HERE FOR YOU, THE ACOUSTIC MUSIC-MAKER AND FAN, SO LET US KNOW WHAT YOU THINK!

As always, we invite you to join us and to let us know what YOU are listening to, and what artists or bands just sent you swooning and need to be shared with others.

Doing our part depends on you doing your part. That way, you'll know that a whole lot more is always coming soon — including fresh MUSIC NEWS, PREVIEWS & REVIEWS, and things in the future like our massive guide to the MUSIC FESTIVALS of 2017.

Meantime, we are ALWAYS big advocates of supporting LIVE PERFORMANCE. With everything happening in the big, wide world, and through these festival-packed, waning-of-summer weekends? Go get tuneful!


+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+

LEGALESE, CONTACTING US, 'N SUCH...

Boilerplate? Where's the main pressure gauge? And the firebox? Is it Walschaerts or Baker or Stephenson valve gear? Superheated or saturated? Duplex or Standard stoker? Circulators or syphons in the firebox?

What "boilerplate"? Who came up with that goofy term for basic essential informational stuff... geeez... soon as we take water from the tank, top-off the lubricators, and get beans from the Harvey House, we are sooo steamin' down the line...

♪ The ACOUSTIC AMERICANA MUSIC GUIDE endeavors to bring you NEWS — and views of interest to artists everywhere — more specifically to musicians and the creative community and music makers and fans of acoustic and Folk-Americana music. That includes both traditional and innovative forms. From the deepest roots to today’s acoustic renaissance, that’s our beat. We provide a wealth of resources, including a HUGE catalog of acoustic-friendly venues (now undergoing a major update), and inside info on FESTIVALS and select performances in Southern California in venues from the monumentally large to the intimately small and cozy. We cover workshops, conferences, and other events for artists and folks in the music industry, and all kinds o’ things in the world of acoustic and Americana and accessible classical music. From washtub bass to musical spoons to oboe to viola to banjo to squeezebox, from Djangostyle to new-fangled-old-time string band music, from sweet Cajun fiddle to bluegrass and pre-bluegrass Appalachian mountain music to all the swamp water roots of the blues and the bright lights of where the music is headed now.
