Activate! presents:
I bet you own a few albums you bought at the merch table after a band rocked your socks off in concert. I thought it would be fun to see what artists inspired me to add them to my collection based on the power of their live performance. So, at 5pm I’ll play songs from stuff I’ve picked up at Richmond shows over the last fifteen years, including locals like Friendly Fire, Rager, Bound to Bolt, Microjoy (pictured), The Catalyst, Vega, and Caust!
