Political spin: DJs tend turntables outside Virginia polling stations on Election Day

Christian Zammas has been DJing since the 1990s. He’s a self-proclaimed veteran of the rave scene. But he had never worked a gig quite like the one that consumed his Election Day. Around 6:15 p.m. Tuesday, Zammas leaned over his controller on a grass strip beside the parking lot at Gladys West Elementary School in Fredericksburg. There were no strobes or beams, just the orange glow of streetlights some 45 minutes before polls closed. Last month, Zammas received a text message out of the blue from a nonprofit called DJs at the Polls . He applied and was ultimately chosen as one of 2,000 DJs to perform live at polling places across the country. According to its website, DJs at the Polls was founded in 2009 as a national, nonpartisan Get Out the Vote initiative “that encourages more people to have their voices heard by turning Election Day into a celebration.” ___________________________________________________________________ This article was written by InsideNoVa's news partner, Fredericksburg Free Press , and republished with permission.

The Old-School Record Store In Virginia Where You Can Hunt For Rare Vinyl For Hours

Not every great destination announces itself with a billboard or a five-star rating on a travel app, and Plan 9 Music in Richmond, Virginia is proof of that. It announces itself with a gothic sign, a wall of flyers, and the kind of reputation that spreads entirely by word of mouth.

Staunton students part of Richmond's 'Battle of the Brains'

Binge watching television has its advantages beyond just a way to relax after a long day of school or work. Staunton High School's Owen Warner used it to study for his academic competition. Warner didn't watch just any show, though. The senior watched past episodes of "Battle of the Brains," a Richmond-based quiz show for high school students. Warner and his Staunton teammates are one of more than 30 teams from around the state competing on the show this season. "I watched all the episodes from last season," Warner said. "It helped get the style of questions in my mind. Because it's a trivia competition. You've got to know the stuff, but it's more about the mental connections you're making, just knowing when to hit the buzzer." Hudson Bronik-Ezzell agreed that watching the show and knowing the format helped. Bronik-Ezzell, like her teammates, are also part of Staunton's scholastic bowl team, which competes locally against other area schools. But the questions on "Battle of the Brains" and the ones heard during scholastic bowl are very different. "They're a lot shorter," Bronik-Ezzell said of the TV show questions, "and more straightforward." Warner said most teams competing in "Battle of the Brains"
