Planning Ahead: These Shows Might Sell-Out

There is nothing worse than the feeling you get when you find out you could have seen Joan Osbourne at the One World Theater the day AFTER she performed both an early and late set. I'd like to think, if God was one of us he'd be cool enough to give us the heads-up. So, it is with that sort of Christian spirit that I have combed through websites that are much more informative than this one to give you this seemingly simple list of shows that actually takes hours and hours of not-watching porn to complete. This isn't a comprehensive list of concerts, it is merely a list of shows that you should probably buy tickets for in advance if you want to be there to take blurry photos of the bands. There are shows listed here that I wouldn't want to attend but I think some of you might so I included them. Conversely, there are shows that you would like to attend that are not even on my radar and/or no thanks. This list is focused on shows with pre-sale tickets, when you click the name of the venue it will take you to the ticket purchase page or Facebook Event Page. Show List Austin and Do512 are good resources if you want something with a more comprehensive scope. With all of that in mind, here's a giant list of things you can do with your hard earned money.
