In Conversation With: Jim Ivins (Busted Wire, The Jim Ivins Band, The Ivins, The Fan)

Jim Ivins was, is, and always will be, the biggest fan and advocate for the Richmond Emo Scene. We chatted for several hours about what it was like playing punk rock, the MTV effect, his famous hair-metal uncle, why he thinks Richmond should have been the next Seattle, and oh yeah, how he fronted the first (and only) American rock band to play Sudan. Buckle up, this is a fun one! Jim's charisma is infectious.
