Welcome to the latest TV or Not TV newsletter spotlighting live music and dance performances all around Southern California this coming week. I’m Matt Cooper, former listings coordinator for the LA Times’ Calendar section.
A NOTE TO READERS:
Beginning this week, the Theater and Music & Dance roundups will start covering Monday through the following Monday, instead of Sunday to the following Sunday. This will tighten up the newsletters a bit and tidy up a few issues with how to list openings and performances that span any given weekend. The two newsletters will continue to go out on Saturdays.
