Remember that time when you heard about that awesome show, but only after the fact, and then you got that weird feeling in your stomach, like when you went too high on the playground swings? Plan Your Week Accordingly is a new feature of Speed of the Pittsburgh Sound which aims to help you never ever have that feeling again (at least about shows). We highlight the “must-sees” from our perspective, give you the date and the locale, and leave the rest to your impeccable/implacable discretion. Shows and tracks after the jump.

I like this feature a lot. I’m moving back to Pittsburgh in the next month or so, and I’m glad I found this blog. The one nice thing about where I live now (Philadelphia) is that they get all sort of small, indie shows. I’ll miss that in Pittsburgh, but it looks like Pitt does ok for shows.
Good feature! You might want to add On Fillmore (Wilco drummer Glenn Kotche’s side project) @ the Warhol on Friday night to your list, too.
