Here’s the August, 2013 Now I’ve Heard Everything Music Calendar. Most events on the calendar are free or low cost and no shows having tickets starting at more than $40 are listed. August begins with a big night, and then looks to be a little thinner than usual. We’ll see if that’s so, because, as always, there are shows yet to be announced. As those additional shows are made public during the month they will be noted in a separate post and also added here.
