New Concert Announcements (from the week ending December 4)

SPAC continues to announce their lineup for next summer, including a biggie in the Foo Fighters. In Troy, we have an exciting new live music venue – No Fun – opening their doors this month. Check out the excellent lineup of local acts they are bringing in. Caffe Lena has filled out their excellent January schedule, including a sort of homecoming by the Figgs. Finally, the Strand has added several very interesting shows to their lineup…lots of good reasons for a trip up the Northway.
