xianeSome of you have heard that something is going on in our scene, changes are happening - well, I'm here to tell you the reality of this.
Right up front, this is a mixed bag of news.
The worst:
January 24th will be the last Dawning hosted at Tokyo Rose.
The management has kindly given us space and supported us for years, and they are finally ready to step away from the liability of having a high-risk event in their space. Tokyo Rose will continue to showcase Jazz, Acoustic, Folk, and some Rock shows; Punk and Goth/Industrial acts will no longer be allowed. Atsushi Miura should be thanked for his graciousness and selfless service for the scene for this long. He's operated at no gain while taking many risks to have all-ages shows. Trust me, he's very unhappy that it had to come to this, and we will miss the dark basement hole we've come to call home.
Now, for the good news.
THE DAWNING IS NOT DEAD.
I am in the process of attempting to open my OWN club, where The Dawning as well as other events will be hosted. This might take a few months to get off the ground, so look for intermediate events to happen in random places until I get established.
I will keep everyone informed as to what's happening... expect something cool and fun, something that will make going out even better.
How can you help?
COME OUT TO THE LAST FOUR SHOWS.
We will be taking donations towards getting The Dawning a new home; anything you can spare to donate will be much appreciated.
Keep a positive attitude. We're not losing a venue, we're moving on to something bigger.
Support each other. And DANCE! Dance, dammit!
The last four weeks of The Dawning:
Tonight, Jan 3rd: In Tenebris and Krieg Der Kinder, with DJ Xiane and DJ Rift.
Jan 10th: DJ night with DJ AudioRapture and DJ Radioactive.
Jan 17th: Silent Muse with DJ Ju5t1ce and DJ Ki-9
Jan 24th: Throw a Wake for The Dawning! All the staff DJs will spin, and we'll leave The Rose with a bang!
Now... keep your heads up. See you there tonight!
