GOSSIP: Shawna, Booking Agent Extraordinaire, Leaves the Proletariat

For nearly as long as there has been a Proletariat, the scintillating Shawna F has been its booking agent, promoter and trusted ear. The list of bands, DJs, club nights, contests, benefits, parties and miscellanea that she is responsible for bringing not only to the club but to the city itself is dwarfed only by the compliments and well wishes that should be paid to her as she turns her attention, full time, to the Diverse Works art space. “It’s going to be really hard to let go of the prolo,” she commented, “but I know they will be fine.” With the SxSw March Madness overflow and summer touring season only months away, no word yet on who may take over the reins or when the men’s toilet might be fixed.
