Update: As with year's past, before the ink's even dry on the schedule, we've had to make made some minor more changes. Among the recent ones: We've moved the metal showcase from Andrew's to Broadways (two doors down from Bar Standard, next to the pawnshop), and moved the punk line-up to Bannock Street Garage. We've also added two additional acts (the Culhanes and Buckner Funken Jazz), and swapped the time slots of a few others at Dazzle.And in case you missed it last week, Andrea Ball is
