Fall is here! The days are getting shorter, the temperature is getting colder, and the leaves will soon be turning a multitude of wonderful oranges, purples, and browns. While the weather may be getting chillier, maybe having a bit of Fall fun and bopping along at a concert might just be the thing to keep you warm this November. While this is by no means a comprehensive list of every concert that will be occurring in Oakland this November, perhaps there is something interesting among these and you can snag a ticket for you and maybe your crew to head out for a show.
