Not really, its coming back in the summer but this is the last one til then. What a ride. There were a lot of haters out there and more than a few dramatic moments but RVALUTION has changed the game in Richmond. Maybe you are scratching your head on that last statement but before you jump down my throat and declare me an idiot, let me walk you through this.
The Hat Factory has a "stated" capacity of 1500 people. RVALUTION at its peak last summer had a run of 15 consecutive sold out nights on a TUESDAY! That's over 20,000 people served. It brought nationally recognized club talent to the city and had them raving. It gave steady work to a good number of very creative local dancers, hooper girls, a few magicians, a monkey, and deejays. It created a new spin on the scene. So for all that, we at least tip our hats on a job well done by The Hat Factory, 2BNB, PLF, and the Audio Ammo guys. Its been a great run. Now it's time to take a break after tonight and get back in the lab for RVALUTION 2.0 next summer.
