There are several shows this evening, but I am only listing one. This is the one to see. Seeing bands like The Flametrick Subs (interview coming tomorrow!) and Luxurious Panthers in a venue like Walter’s on Washington is a rare treat. This is a small-ish venue with great sound and is sure to be an excellent show. Come out and get your holiday fill of rockabilly.
