28 Jan 03 - 03:32 PM (#876863) Subject: Concerts/Tours question From: winterchild Folks; Is there a site you would recommend for finding out what tours and concerts are coming through wherever one happens to live (in the states) of the sort of music we like here? There are so many small groups and individuals in the acoustic trads that don't get advertised very widely, and word-of-mouth is limited.... WinterC |
