Mark:
“Tony Rohrbough was in Byzantine, Terry Smith did vocals on one of Tony’s latest solo releases, Terry is also w/ I am the Liquor and orginally 3-Hole Face which also consisted of Ryan Postlewait who is the mind behind Mega Beardo. The drummer for I am the Liquor (at least this CD) was the drummer for Bullistic for many years whom we played countless shows with as Separation….etc…etc…One big happy family.”

In 2005, I created RVA Magazine, and I'm still at the helm as its publisher. From day one, it’s been about pushing the “RVA” identity, celebrating the raw creativity and grit of this city. Along the way, we’ve hosted events, published stacks of issues, and, most importantly, connected with a hell of a lot of remarkable people who make this place what it is.
