Want to support some local music this holiday season? A lot of bands are doing special shows for the occasion.

Check out my column this week, which features local bands playing holiday shows, including Borrowed Bones, MT Robison and The Messengers, Suspicious Activities, Audigraffiti, Pococurante, MANNTIS, Knock-Out, Hit the Switch, The Robbery, The Sleeping Sea King, The Paper Crowns and so many more.

I also did a roundup of other concerts coming through the area, including Alien Ant Farm’s special show at RCC this weekend, X103.9’s Merry Meltdown, Barry Manilow in the desert, Dave Koz and Friends and Brian Setzer’s triumphant return to San Bernardino.
