Avril's Clothing Line "Abbey Dawn" - What's It Mean?
OCTOBER 22 - NEWS FLASH ! :)
I just met Avril Lavigne this week IN PERSON and even got to talk to her for a couple of minutes!
It was at a Canon Canada press event where they invited 10 "Super Fans" to have a meet-and-greet with Avril after they announced this new partnership between her and Canon Canada.
Details can be found at www.shootlikeastar.ca and I will be writing a new and full post about this event and what it was like to meet Avril in person when I get my copy of the photo they took of me and Avril together. Sweet!
So check back within the week for that post I'll make here, or Subscribe with your email (on the right side of this page) so you'll know as soon as I publish that article!

July 2008 Update! Abbey Dawn Clothes can be found on eBay now!

After learning that Avril's new clothing line (coming out in July) is called "Abbey Dawn", I found out that it was her nickname as a kid. And it appears that is the name of a place...
So I've been checking around but don't think I've discovered exactly what place Avril's dad was thinking about (or maybe I did!). :)
There's an Abbey Dawn Drive in Bath, Ontario that's not too far from Napanee (like 5 minute drive or so?), but it's pretty short... maybe the family knew someone who lived there? And BTW, I use to live VERY close to that road too! :)
And there's an Abbey Dawn Road on the other side of Kingston (maybe 45 minutes from Napanee?) but it's out in the country - not much there except maybe a Paintball field and a Tavern on the waterfront called "Schooners Restaurant & Bar" and "Smuggler's Inn", both at 907 Abbey Dawn Road where it meets Highway 2.

After learning that Avril's new clothing line (coming out in July) is called "Abbey Dawn", I found out that it was her nickname as a kid. And it appears that is the name of a place...
In a 2004 interview, Avril was asked:
"What was your nickname when you were in school?"
And she answered:
"I didn’t have a nickname. Oh, yeah, I did — Abbey. Abbey Dawn. I think it’s a place. That’s what my dad called me, so all my friends did, too."
So I've been checking around but don't think I've discovered exactly what place Avril's dad was thinking about (or maybe I did!). :)
