August Assault was born in 2007 serving as 717 Entertainments (then called “The Doctors Office) 3rd show and only 2nd show ever at Gullifty’s Underground. In the Early days it was set up for 2 reasons. 1. To serve as the final show of the summer and 2. mixing Genre’s incorporating Metal / Rock and starting off w/ Acoustic acts. As years went on the show as focused solely on Mixing genres and ending the summer w/ a great show, something to look forward to each summer. The show has just finished up its 8th version in 2022 and serves as our longest running themed show. Years have been skipped however it always returns. This year we turned it into a 8 band festival. The only other year to feature that many bands was the 2008 version.
