May 2017 Concert Calendar

Hi, friends. I started this blog to let people know about all the good music that's out there. I only review CDs that I like, music that I can say something positive about. The rest I leave to everyone else. In addition, I try to keep track of where those artists are performing. So here is a list of a few concerts you might be interested in for the month of May, 2017. This concert calendar might seem slightly shorter than some of the ones I posted last year. That is because I am not including any concerts taking place in any state that voted for Donald Trump.
