Yr. (Abridged) Weekend, Pt. 2: Yes Indeed!, Rudz 35th Anniversary, & A Ton of Other Shows

Alright, so know I’ve been pretty damn focused on the whole Yes Indeed! Fest this week; actually, I’m sitting at the Last Concert Cafe as I hurriedly type this in.

Just because I’ve blathered quite a bit about this one show/festival, though, doesn’t mean it’s the only thing happening tonight, Sat., September 14th. Far from it, in fact. I’m afraid I can’t do an actual rundown-type thing tonight (still waiting for my damn Bluetooth keyboard to come in; when it does…), but here’s a list of all the shows going on that I think sound cool.
