Two things for sure about San Antonio: We’re a hard-working town, and we love our heavy metal.

Which may explain why the Current‘s two most-read stories this week were a rundown of San Antonio employers who ended up on Forbes‘ annual rankings of the best places to work and our review of Danzig’s performance at Boeing Center at Tech Port.
