Tokyo Rose is a friendly little sushi bar with a basement (with bar) for local bands as well as national and world acts, with some DJ nights.  It is located in Charlottesville, Virginia on US 250 West in Ivy Square. 
     Saturday nights at the Rose have been reserved for dark music acts and gothic/industrial DJs.  The weekly event is titled The Dawning and is run in part by the friendly boys of Bella Morte.  Every other Thursday night is "Shut Up and Listen," an evening for acoustic and related music. 
     Tokyo Rose's atmosphere, staff, and patrons have made it the favorite venue of Vehemence Realized.
