Richmond Playlist : Is Alley Katz Reopening?

by | Aug 25, 2010 | MUSIC

I was randomly checking the Alley Katz website (which is still active) and it looks like the venue might be reopened for business.

The site says that there is a grand reopening on Sunday, Aug. 29 (The RVA Metal Fest has been moved to the Canal Club). A bunch of bands are playing including Boltt, A Sound of Thunder, Engulfed in Flames, Elisium, Templteka, Art of Destruction, Not-Liable, Saint Diablo, Bitter and Synapse Defect.

I don’t know if this is a benefit to reopen the venue or the official reopening itself. If anyone has any additional info, send it my way.

If it is in fact reopened, it’s only a good thing.
