Concerts This Week: September 5 - September 10

It's the first (partial) concert list of the semester! Get those concert reports done sooner rather than later. This is a small sampling of upcoming events in Knoxville, Oak Ridge, and Loudon. Remember to check Facebook for events in your area. Also, see the Twitter lists I created--these lists will connect you with musicians, venues, etc. As always, check the post on the Do's and Don'ts of Concert Attendance before making your plans! Updated Tuesday, September 6.
