SHOWSPACE

After more than 7 years and 700+ posts, I'm no longer publishing on Showspace.  

It has been a blast cataloguing DIY shows in Baltimore over the years. I hope the site has been useful to you and that you continue to support this incredible music and arts scene. 

A huge thank you to all the bands, artists and show spaces for all that you have shared with us. You passion is a gift.

Much love,
