Weekend Picks – Fall Invasion Edition
It's official. Summer is over and fall is upon us. Put away your sun dresses. Time to switch to bourbon.

This is also the fourth edition of weekend picks, and so we wanted to say a little something about this post. It should be noted that this is not an advertisement for anyone. This is just an honest list of events that we think you'll enjoy if you are in the DC/Baltimore area, and you like excellent music, people, and/or things. If you don't see your event on the list, we probably don't know about it, so LET US KNOW! If it seems like something cool, not only will we add it, but we'll probably show up to check it out too!
Alright, so on to the good stuff...
