About Live from the Rail

Hey there music lovers!


I live in the Richmond metro area and attend concerts in Virgina, DC and Maryland, primarily alternative rock, electronica and punk.

This blog merges my two favorite things: music and writing. Call it a midlife crisis if you wish, but I've decided to live out a teenage dream I should have never let get away. I will post reviews of all the shows I see as well as set lists and photos from the show. How is this different from other blogs or sites with concert reviews? I want to post from the fan perspective.

Without the fans, it's just another song and just another band. I will post pics of the crowd, the fans on the rail and anything notable. I don't care if you have a spot on the floor, a seat in the center or section of grass on the lawn... you matter!

I'll also post links to the venue, ticket prices if available, and merch info from the show. If there's anything else you would like to see added, just let me know!

See a show!
