I'm mostly interested in medium-sized venues (between 300 and 2,000 people). Any suggestions for reading material (or does anyone want to share their knowledge on the subject)?

My band is going to go on a tour from the Midwest to the East Coast in Late March. What small clubs (Cap 100- or less) or basements- geared towards noisey indie rock- would you recommend playing in between Milwaukee and The Atlantic Ocean? If possible, contact info or a link would be appreciated.
