No Dawning in July, but. . .

August is going to be friggin' sweet!

First off, yes, things had to be scaled back a bit in July. The main reason is, we are holding something huge in August and we need to prepare.

See, August 9th will be a Dawning Fundraiser! I'll be completely straight with you: these are tough times for all venues in Charlottesville, so for right now the Dawning has been renting space and getting a PA through the good graces of others. This event will be your chance to help the Dawning get firmly back on its feet again by covering the expenses of space rentals and a PA. Plus, ideas are currently in the works for this to be a festival of awesome proportions in which you'll be able to get free stuff and share your musical tastes with others like never before. Furthermore, we're lining up three regional bands from various genres who are all going to knock your socks off!

This event will be at DUST on the corner of Meade and Market, but will not be BYOB. Never fear, folks, we've actually gone one step further and will actually have a bar available! Whether you want to dance, drink, enjoy some good bands, share some tunes, or just throw five bucks at us in a donation, August 9th will have something for everybody.

Watch this space for more announcements. Not only will we be telling you more about bands, etc, but there might be a couple of parties on the horizon between now and then! In the meantime, clear your calendar now!
