Some Saturday nights you have no idea what you’re going to get into, and the next thing you know you’re in a house full of crust and mall punks drinking 40s, waiting to see NYC’s Star Fucking Hipsters. I headed down to South Philly’s Ava House at the very last minute on a whim, took […]
mc chris live in Philly (11/24/09)
Last night, even though all cards were apparently pointed against me, I headed out to the First Unitarian Church to catch my favorite rapper, mc chris. I was running late, as I had a kickball game (a humiliating defeat by the way) and so I missed all the opening bands, and then when I got […]
NOFX – Cokie The Clown (For fans of Rancid, Pennywise, Lagwagon)
Cocaine addicted clowns and songs about a holiday to celebrate addiction… sounds like your typical NOFX release. When I heard that NOFX was going to release “Cokie The Clown EP”, featuring 5 unreleased songs that was recorded during the “Coaster” sessions, I got to admit, I was pretty stoked. I actually liked “Coaster”, and think […]

Bomb The Music Industry (Live In Philly 11/18/09)
On Wed night, I headed down to South Philly’s Ava House to see Bomb The Music Industry on their “Bring Your Own Band” tour. On this tour, Jeff reverted back to BTMI olden days, where he would go on tour with just an MP3 player, and anybody who wanted to play along could bring their […]

The Toasters, Mustard Plug, Voodoo Glow Skulls (Live In Philly 11/13/09)
On Friday night, I headed out to Philly’s Starlight Ballroom in order to catch the Ska Is Dead Tour (a tour that I have caught practically every year it came around since their first one). After getting rained on in line, I got in free because some nice dude had an extra ticket and just […]
Dead To Me – African Elephants (For fans of None More Black, Lawrence Arms, Dillinger Four)
What an eccentric collection of songs. Dead To Me’s latest album: African Elephants is one hell of a whirlwind. There’s been a lot of jib-jab in the bowels of the internet about Dead To Me being stripped down to a three piece, and how it has changed the writing style of the band. Quite honestly, […]
mc chris – Part Six Part Three (for fans of Mc Frontalot, Mc Lars, Totally Michael)
Rapper mc chris is back with his 3rd and final installment of the “mc chris goes to hell” series: “Part Six Part Three”. It seems like on every installment the cartoon rapper takes influences from a different source, and this time around he’s pulling influences from more modern rap and Atari bleeps. While I usually […]
DC Stylee (A Mix!)
This past weekend, I headed down to my friend’s place in Arlington, VA, so we could head into the capital city for his birthday. Usually, I’m not a big fan of the District of Columbia with it’s confusing roads and it’s crime (although if you didn’t count the congressmen and presidents, the crime rate would […]
