Fairfax, VA-based alt-rockers, Sematic, headline The State Theatre in Falls Church, VA with a bill including Anamide, Envy Insane and Burn the Ballroom.

Doors at 7 pm, show at 9 pm. Tickets are $11 presale, $12 the night of the show

A note on The Digital Freedom Campaign: As digital technology enables everyone to be a creator, an innovator or an artist – to produce music, to create cutting-edge videos and photos, and to share their creative work, individuals are also able to enjoy these new works when, where, and how they want, and to participate in the artistic process.

The Digital Freedom campaign is dedicated to defending the rights of students, artists, innovators, and consumers to create and make lawful use of new technologies free of unreasonable government restrictions and without fear of costly and abusive lawsuits.
