So I was sitting in the office writing up a list of new CDs to put you in a Halloween-type mood (email me and I’ll tell you what they were) when I thought, ‘Hell, with all this music tonight, there’s no reason to sit at home listening to CDs.’ Seriously, I know it’s Halloween and everything, but just look at all this. Furthermore, without being overly familiar with all of the artists listed below, I bet you at least 75 percent of them are local. So, once and for all, don’t let anyone ever tell you Houston doesn’t have a formidable music scene – or if they do, for God’s sakes don’t believe them for a second. And whatever you do tonight, be sure to pour one out for Robert Goulet.
