The other day my girlfriend asked if she could say “I told you so” about the Dame coming back to live in a bigger location. I was mopey one day after they closed and she said that either another big venue would open up in Lexington or the Dame would come back. Well, with its reopening a day away and several good shows lined up, I might finally let her say it.

Mates of State will be playing at the Dame Friday November 14. It’s 21+ as always and $10 advance, $12 day of.

Then they’ll be making the long and arduous drive to Louisville to play Headliners on Saturday Nov 15. That show is 18+ and $12.

Both shows open at 8pm.
