As a ska-punk fan growing up in New Jersey during the early 2000s, Streetlight Manifesto was always one of my favorite bands back in the day, and if you’re familar with the genre you damn well know who Streetlight Manifesto is by now. I honestly think that Tomas Kalnoky is one of the most talented […]
The Descendents, Fucked Up, Night Birds Live In Philly (10/13/16)
*Once again, I’m really late on this post due to my incredibly limited screen time due to this stupid fucking post concussive syndrome as I’ve mentioned in previous (late) posts and staying on a screen longer than a few minutes causes instant migraines which lo and behold, doesn’t really go well when you’re trying to […]
Gorilla Biscuits At This Is Hardcore Live In Philadelphia (8/6/16)
(video by aouoon) Yeah I know I know, this post is waaaay overdue, but I was injured with a concussion shortly after the show, and haven’t been allowed to look at screens because concussions are fucking boring and you seriously can’t do anything (I’m still not really supposed to use them long, so I will […]
Streetlight Manifesto Live In Philadelphia (10/18/15)
Long time no see friends! After a busy few weeks (weddings, traveling, not getting to see Dillinger Four because of the forementioned reasons…) and a hectic weekend, I headed out to Philly’s Electric Factory on a whim this past Sunday in order to see Streetlight Manifesto. I got there late and unfortunately missed almost all […]
American Nightmare, The Suicide File Live In Philly (7/24/15)

Less Than Jake and Reel Big Fish Live In Philadelphia (1/24/15)
Ska shows are a rare beast these days in our modern world. Even though I listen to ska regularly still and go to plenty of shows, long gone are the days of VFW Halls filled with kids decked out in chain wallets and checkerboard accessories, so you can imagine my surprise when I found out […]
The Offspring, Bad Religion, Pennywise, The Vandals Live In Philadelphia (8/2/14)
Last Saturday, sort of on a whim I headed to Philadelphia’s Electric Factory to catch The Offspring play Smash in it’s entirety, Bad Religion, Pennywise, and The Vandals (aka Warped tour 1998). I was having a hard time resolving it in my mind going to a punk show that was +$60 which is just absurd […]
Kid Dynamite, Kill Your Idols, Black Train Jack Live In Philly (8/8/13)
Faithful housewives readers, I know it’s been a few weeks since my last post, but between moving, jobs, and life… things have been busy to say the least. But last night I was lucky enough to head out to Philadelphia’s THIS IS HARDCORE FEST, over at the Electric Factory to catch one of my all […]
