Vic Chesnutt tragically passed away on Christmas Day last year.  An Athens, Ga. native for years, Vic left behind great friends and family.  He released seventeen albums in his career, and was a frequent act around the Athens music scene. The 40 Watt will be holding a tribute for Vic on February 19 and 20. 

Tickets are $10 in advance and can be bought at Schoolkids Records or online through the 40 Watt website.  Looks like two solid lineups of Vic’s friends and colleagues.  It should be a nice couple of nights remembering Vic.
