The Rejected, fronted by Mel Gagarin, was the first of eight bands to play the Tavern on Saturday in an all-day show sponsored by the Department of Audio Technology. Donations totaling about $300 were made at the show to benefit a new chapter of Students Against Destructive Decisions (SADD) that is being set up in honor of AU student Andrew Burr, who was killed by a drunken driver in January. Cab Assassin, the AU band Burr sang in, also played. For more information, visit www.saddonline.com.
