Velocity Girl Reuniting For First Show In 21 Years At Black Cat 30th Anniversary Weekend

The nightclub known as the Black Cat opened in Washington, DC in 1993. The club was founded by Dante Ferrando, former drummer for post-hardcore greats Gray Matter, and one of its early investors was Dave Grohl, who was still the drummer in Nirvana back then. Ever since, the Black Cat has been a DC institution. The club has moved once, but they managed to find a space that was almost exactly like the original one. A 1996 Avail/Citizen Fish show at the Black Cat remains the best live show that I have ever seen. This fall, the Black Cat will celebrate its 30th anniversary with a pair of huge shows that'll feature some bands who haven't been around in a while.
