My First Weekly Music Round-Up, Jan 25th-30th

After the incredibly savvy and all knowing Ramon took a bow and exited stage left, I assumed the position of trying to inform you all about what’s going on in Houston during the week. This is my first attempt at doing the Weekly Round Up, and I want to know what you think. I will try some different formats and what not until I get this just right. There are a lot of things happening in Houston, although some nights have more to offer than others. If you look hard enough, there will always be something for you out there, but luckily for everyone, we will do the hard looking; you just have to pick something and go do it!
