27 SHOWS THAT WILL ROCK NYC IN 2008
While we can’t say we endorse all of these, here’s a list of metal shows happening in the NYC area through the end of February, some better, some worse. You won’t see Axl or me at the Linkin Park show, but you can bet your ass we’ll be front row at W.A.S.P. and Kip will be lurking around at The Mars Volta. Also — Foo Fighters headlining Madison Square Garden — zuh? Also, don’t forget to check out NYCmetal.com for more local metal news and show listings. Anyway, some shows listed after the jump.
