Greensboro-based alternative pop-rock band Athenaeum was a regional favorite in the 1990s. Once signed to Atlantic Records, the band never quite grabbed the footing it needed to make it nationally, due in part to a record release scheduled just after 9/11. Regardless, two former members find the time to perform here and there, and this is one of those nights.
