Free Week: What Made Milwaukee Famous, Yellow Fever, New Roman Times, Crooks, Butcher Bear & Charlie, and more, and more, and more…

The End of 2010 approaches, and that means two things: one, our big bad Year End Poll is in the works, with a winner soon to be crowned as Emerging Austin Artist of 2010, and two, FREE WEEK is on its way, with way WAY too many local bands out playing for you during the first week of January. You’ll never see them all, but if you tried, you could catch What Made Milwaukee Famous (at Emo’s 1/7 along with The Lemurs, pictured above) White Rhino, Amplified Heat, One Hundred Flowers, Quiet Company, Shapes Have Fangs, STEREO IS A LIE, Fresh Millions, Beautiful Supermachines, and many many more. All week. Participating venues include The Parish, Emo’s, The Mohawk, Red 7, Beerland, ND at 501, The Scoot Inn, Stubb’s…
