This weeks shows for the week of 11 July 2026

OK, see the guy on the right? That's John Nova Lomax. He's actually a sweetheart, a super nice guy, and honestly does care about music. But just like anyone - myself included - he can talk out of his ass. His article (link) about how the Houston Scene sucks both bored me and irked me to no end (admittedly I dozed off and stopped reading before the last few paragraphs). If you buy into his idea that the local scene is weak, local bands are sub-par, and that nothing of worth comes to our city then I invite you to look at our preview and tell me things are as lame as he suggests. Just keep in mind, as much as I give him shit in this preview, the guy is really a cool "calling it how he sees it" kind of guy and I still think that Houston is, despite my disagreement with him on this, a much better place for what he contributes. Anyhow, here's what out there for you this week. ( Link )
