Activate! Last Days of Strange Matter #2

We’ve been showing our support for local venues and local bands the last few weeks on Activate! and this week we will remember a Richmond legend. Almost 100 bands played at Strange Matter during the final two weeks of their run, so at 5pm we’ll take a seat at that legendary bar one last time and hear the music that closed things out.
