Happy 2012 live music freaks! Hope you all had a killer 2011 and finished it off with a bang and some good shows!

Last week was obviously a busy week for live music fans in the New York metro area, so naturally, the concert calendar slows down a bit this week as we start the new year. But that’s not to say there aren’t some great shows to hit.
