Hang on to your hats, NXNE is here. Below you will find a summary of the shows that we here at the Panic Manual support.

If you listened to our podcast this week, you will have heard my NXNE advice of attending only one venue per evening. After you see the band you want to see, go home. This hopping from bar to bar is for the birds. Even though Ricky saw 1,357 bands at SXSW this year by doing the bar hopping thing, he hasn’t been the same since. Anyway, here is who we are checking out at this years festival:

THURSDAY – JUNE 18
