New LA Shows Announced

Okay, so I've done a little house-cleaning on the Upcoming Shows column to your right and updated it with a number of recently announced concerts, like Metric, Sea Wolf, Voxtrot, Arab Strap, We Are Scientists, Film School, Wilderness, The Yeah Yeah Yeahs (who, sorry, are already sold-out), Snow Patrol (sold-out, too), and -- whew! -- many more.

It's not a complete list of every independent band that's playing all the local venues, just the ones I've heard ... or, at least, heard of.

If I'm missing anyone, please let me know.

And, hey, if you're catching The Wedding Present on Saturday night at The Troubadour, I'll see you there...
