Shows & Live Music in Baltimore — Concerts, Theater & Comedy
This is the heart of it: live music at Ottobar, the Crown, Rams Head, and Soundstage; theater at Center Stage and the Hippodrome; comedy at Magooby's and the smaller rooms. We read the whole calendar and call which shows are worth the ticket, which are solid, and when the openers run so you can show up at the right time.
