Does it seem like a full year since The Underground opened in downtown Mesa?

It's hard to believe, right?

The venue opened on February 12, 2010 but there's apparently another show that day (not on the calender yet). Also, the venue is kind of small so they're doing it upstairs at the Nile Theater, which won't have it's one-year anniversary for a few more months.

(Remember Benjamin Leatherman's incredibly bold prediction? hahaha)

Hooves, The Technicolors, Radio Drive By and more are scheduled to play -- should be a great show. Tickets here.
