Union Transfer for Yeasayer?

I... am not a huge Cat Power fan. But Mouse on Mars is playing at Johnny Brenda's in March and I am SO FUCKING TOTALLY GOING

i got cat power tickets + i'm going w/ my brother and his wife. if any philly ppl end up going let me know + mini-Electric Factory FAP?

I can't make it to Cat Power, but I can (and will) definitely do Mouse on Mars.

Did anybody make it out to the Locust Moon comic festival today?

I had this brilliant idea for a dn of "whoop i. goldberg" but only like 3 ppl wd get it

maybe i'll still do it

lol

I passed by there every day this past summer

I used to get all my Boy Scout stuff at the one in DE. I guess their days were numbered once the bottom fell out of the Co-ed Naked T-shirt market.

half vacant cat powers show at electric factory tnite. I'm kinda surprised - they closed all the top floors

i got my goat tickets for april -- i'm sure there are ilxors who want to go see this show!

Oh shit, thanks for the heads up! I'll try and make it, but I'm going to have family in town that week so I might not be able to.

Stuff I'm considering in the next few months:
Beak> Feb 8 at Underground Arts
Psychic Ills Feb 13 at Johnny Brenda's
Autre ne Veut Feb 26 at Johnny Brenda's (will definitely be there for this one; already got the ticket)
US Girls Feb 15 at PhilaMOCA
Mac DeMarco March 1 at KFN
Mouse on Mars March 4 at Johnny Brenda's
Sky Ferreira & How to Dress Well March 23 at Johnny Brenda's
Jamie Lidell April 14 at UTX
Iceage April 19 at First Unitarian
Gold Panda May 17 at Johnny Brenda's

I am DEF going to Beak and MoM and maybe Sky Ferraria and Jamie Liddell! Also my friend is opening the Psychic Ills show and I might go to that too

@ Johnny Brendas

Anybody going to Making Time tonight? Parquet Courts, Inc., Gavin Russom

Oh fuck!!! Is Gavin Russom doing a DJ thing or a live thing?

DJ

Eh, fuck it, I'm there. The person I invited out is incommunicado, so I'm kind of sitting around. If anyone's here feel free to say hi- awkward guy, brown hair, grey pants, blue/black striped shirt. With any luck I'll be drunk enough to talk without flinching and shut (thanks, Sailor Jerry, you are a true mensch)

I thought abt going to this but then forgot and went gay bar hopping w a pair of superrad dykes.

A wise choice probably. Parquet Courts are killing it but Inc was a dud. Not sure if I'm going to stay for Russom.

There's a midnight showing of Female Trouble at the Troc tonight...

Is anyone seeing Autre Ne Veut tonight?

Mouse on Mars, etc

I went. It was amaaaaaaazing.

Agreed

The glitchy bit at the end of the first vocal bit of "They Know Your Name" is probably my favorite moment on the whole album and when he kept looping it throughout the rest of the song I went totally apeshit

I just wish they'd played more older stuff

I rly rly wanted a shirt too except the only one they had just said "MOM WOW" and I don't want that.

Yeah, that one's maybe too open to misinterpretation

Fuck, this happened less than a block from my work and we saw the whole fire from our front window :( There were probably 10 or 15 fire engines all up and down 4th and east + west on Bainbridge; it was nuts.

Making Time?

I would but not for $15

goat tnite!

http://www.philly.com/philly/news/special_packages/inquirer/Philadelphia_Homicides_1988_2011.html

from 1988-2012 the neighborhood i grew up had about as many murders as all of center city o_o

what's up guys

Not much; I've had to cut down on going out now that I'm finally free from my horrible job and spending time on schoolwork. Anything interesting happening?

Horse Meat Disco at the Dolphin the other night was fun (though that venue kind of sucks a lot) but other than that I've been missing out left and right. Ladyfest, Limp Wrist, Mount Kimbie, Charlie XCX...

Same here- I had the wrong date written down for Ladyfest and had to call off Charli XCX to do last-minute panic studying for math.

Word is that Goblin will be playing live at Underground Arts on October 5...

If anybody's at CHVRCHES tonight, I'll be drunk. I mean there. And drunk.

GUYS (sic) IS HERE!! Who wants to come to the parade w us tomorrow??

stevie i lol'd when i saw this http://www.yelp.com/wordmap/philadelphia/hipster
