Activate! August 1 - August 9

Activate!Activate! August 1 – August 9

I've been gone for so long, I almost forgot how to log in to post this!

Welcome to the first week of August and the latest 2-hour installment of the concert calendar for your ears. Yep, every band I play tonight (like Wild Nothing, Marionette, Beex, The Haverchucks) has a gig in Richmond, including Frankzig (pictured) who's leaving for New Orleans any day now.

And big thanks to Shannon Cleary for holding down the fort while I was away! Click on "read more" for the show listings / playlist. Click here for the podcast: http://www.radio4all.net/index.php/series/Activate!
