This week offers so many great shows, but if you haven't been paying attention, you might kick yourself because many of them are already sold-out. Monday night's Belly Up and Humphreys shows are the perfect example. M. Ward, who has a great solo career but is also known for performing in She & Him with Zooey Deschanel and Monsters of Folk with Jim James, Conor Oberst, and Mike Mogis, performs a sold-out show tonight at the Belly Up with fIREHOSE. Over at Humphreys by the Bay, Elvis Costello & the Imposters perform, following up last year's sold-out performance at the Balboa Theatre. Still, there are plenty of other great options for Monday night, or you can save up your energy for the rest of this week's stellar shows.
