Upcoming Shows Through New Year's Eve

Happy Kwanzaa to everbody. I've been spending time with friends and family and trying to avoid the internet. I'm looking forward to making some changes to You Set the Scene in 2008. Right now I'm thinking that I'll start to de-empasize the show listings and only highlight a couple a day. To replace that, I hope to start doing some interviews and get out in front of new records with more album preview/reviews. Thanks for reading.
