Rockabilly madness tonight!

Bill Davis wrote the majority of the songs with primitive folk artist John Preble of UCM Museum fame. Dash Rip Rock is a study in the art of southern decadence and wild native abandon. Dash Rip Rock has played every imaginable sort of revel - swamp parties, debutante parties, barn parties, farm parties, biker parties, cowboy parties, pool parties, Mardi Gras balls and beach blow-outs. Some were wild and exciting -  others creepy and terrifying. 

Tonight they play LIVE at:

Metro Pub & Coffeehouse!

Crossing Delancey
Isabel is a modern young woman who lives alone and works in a book shop. When she is not pining after a handsome author, she is visiting her grandmother in Manhattan’s Lower East Side. This delightfully nosy old lady and her friend the matchmaker have found a “”catch”” for Isabel – Sam, the handsome pickle vendor. With humor, resilience, and a touch of misunderstanding, Isabel learns to adjust her narrow view. The end of the play is really a beginning, ripe with possibilities for Isabel and Sam.

Expanded Market Opens on April 16 with New Vendors and Musicians

The Augusta Market begins its 2011 season on Saturday, April 16 at the 8th Street Plaza at Reynolds Street and the Riverwalk.  Last year’s market saw innovative direction through the public/private partnership between the Downtown Development Authority (DDA) and a local group of entrepreneurs, strengthening and expanding the market. “The DDA successfully incubated the idea of a privately run market, in keeping with its mission, released a self-sustaining enterprise to the private sector,” said Brooke Buxton.


To follow or inquire about the Augusta Market at the River, go to www.theaugustamarket.com or find the Augusta Market on Facebook.
