Let me start this little rant off by saying it's an odd feeling seeing a show in a night club in the middle of the day. Luckily the 810 is such a sweet little club with a laid back atmosphere (and superb sound to boot) so I was at ease for this perfect stripped down [...]

If you've planned ahead, then you might be attending the free show/recording session Middle Distance Runner is putting on for WTMD at the 810 this afternoon. Should be pretty awesome to hear some new songs and acoustical versions. Tonight in Baltimore there are some other notable shows though starting with Necking, Teeth Mountain, Whales and [...]

If you were able to make this wonderful show last Friday then you already know how awesome it was. Everything I've come to expect from MDR shows was confirmed and then heightened. First let me just say what a fine little venue Arlington, Virginia's Iota is. It was my first time, but it definitely won't [...]

Have I told you lately that Middle Distance Runner is the bee's knees? No. Well maybe that's because they've been hiding away recording a new album…only to emerge….on October 10th at Iota to celebrate their 100th show with the fabulous New Rock Church Of Fire opening. If you've never seen them live before, now's your [...]

I've heard this one live a couple of times now and it'...

Here's our Holiday Hash Vol 2 for all of you hipsters out there who like to listen to bands with names that cause your parents to stare blankly when you first mention them, then repeat the band name slowly back at you before shaking their head and saying "how do they come up with something like that?" Mind you, this is only 12 of the 24 songs I have queued for this holiday genre, so keep checking

Take a walk on the trippy side with me.This Saturday, I went to NASA (yes, that NASA) and saw Middle Distance Runner, a band with origins here in DC, but who is gaining notoriety in some of the more indie-cool scenes along the east coast. The show was a total trip--with people dressed as aliens, Star Wars paratroopers (is that what they're called?) and a cake, in the shape of the Hubble
