I love live music. There is something about it that just makes me happy and at peace. But there is one thing that truly makes me happy about seeing live music, seeing a band or artist for the first time and them blowing me away. And here is the thing, Columbus has so many awesome musicians that it happens more with local shows than national acts. The last time this happened was last week, I caught The Up All Nights and I was in awe of their performance. They left me wanting more, and that more is this weekend. If I made a list of can’t miss bands for this weekend, they would be at the top. -Ray M
