April Awareness

Hey kids! Here's your monthly show schedule for the Philly/Messiah/Bmore area... and I'm posting it early so it can't be an April Fools joke... or a bad joke like that one. Sooo many shows sold out this month. I'll try and get this up earlier for next month so that doesn't happen. I've tried to provide alternate dates where possible. $? might mean sold out too... As always, expect links to band myspaces. Hit me up if you're going, I'm probably interested since I posted it (except for those $100+ shows, cause I can't afford it)
