Introduction
We're in the process of compiling a section on Dubuque. (Please be patient. I'll add more content as I gather it.) The goal is to assist people who want to take a trip there to see a show, and bands looking to book a show there. There will be a venue list and links to event calendars. If you have any suggestions, please email .

Some Shows I Want To See
- Apr. 03: Busted Lift, The TunaHelpers, Schaffer the Darklord, Coolzey 8-12 $6
The TunaHelpers are an all female, puppet-wielding, experimental band. Here are two interesting capsule reviews I've read:
Girls Town Productions
"Adrienne's stunning voice soars above lush, sparkling melodies and jagged guitar, sometimes from the center of the stage, her wild eyes shifting around the audience, or hidden behind a two-headed puppet..."Bitch Magazine
"Though Adrienne may race around stage, kicking and screaming, her piercing eyes bulging out of her head as she releases a glorious yowl, you'd somehow feel at ease leaving her with your children."
