When it was announced that Brian Fallon would be making a quick stop at the Church on a brief acoustic run, it was almost too obvious that it would be the hottest ticket in town on that Sunday night. It was. Packed to the brim, Fallon and tourmate Dave Hause got down to basics with a Revival Tour-esque collaboration and their own sets.

Fresh off their new album, mewithoutYou will spend the post-holiday season playing some local shows. Saturday night saw the band at Johnny Brenda's for a very sold-out 21 and up show while tonight they'll be at the Church for another sold out show.

Ryan Bingham’s back-story is one that record executives pray, to whomever their God is, falls into their company’s lap.

Mom gave him his first guitar at 16; left a broken family behind on the ranch and oil fields shortly thereafter; tried his luck on the rodeo circuit; got face-stomped by a beast named Spanky.

Yes, it seems like he was only in the city yesterday playing the Trocadero with his legendary band but tonight Kevin Seconds returns to Philadelphia, this time with an acoustic guitar instead of the rest of 7 Seconds.

What: The closest thing we’ll get to an East coast Coachella is All Points West and this year’s festival is looking a little more varied than the 2008 edition. Instead of two nights with the same headliner, this year each night has multiple headliners. We’ve got the Jay-Z, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Vampire Weekend, Heartless Bastards, Tool, Gogol Bordello, Arctic Monkeys, Coldplay, MGMT, Silversun Pickups, Gaslight Anthem, Echo and the Bunnymen and a little band from across the pond called MY BLOODY VALENTINE.

Why wouldn’t you want to catch some of the best bands in the world with Lady Liberty in the background? Jersey City’s Liberty State Park is one of the most beautiful parks on the coast and is the perfect place to have the festival. Seriously, if you don’t go to this you’re 100% blowing it. Really.

Phrequency and McJawn Magazine hosted an EPIC block party yesterday in South Philly.  Sunday, July 26th, 2009 will forever be remembered as the day these two websites collided and created a beautiful thing.  The party went off without a hitch, even the pending thunderstorms held out, and everyone got to enjoy the sounds of some of Philly's best acts.

Still trying to look for that old Hüsker Dü 7”? Ever thought about getting rid of that old 8-track player (It’s vintage so it has to be good…right?) sitting in your basement collecting dust? Always wanted to pick up the guitar, but stuck with a budget of $25? Look no further than this summer’s Punk Rock Flea Market.

What’s a better way to honor America’s independence then celebrate one of its own inventions, punk-rock? Yes, before Johnny Rotten declared his need to be an anarchist there was Richard Hell, Johnny Thunders, and of course Joey and Dee Dee Ramone. Who can forget the Godfathers (and Godmothers) of the genre Lou Reed, Iggy Pop, Wayne Kramer, and Patti Smith who oversaw the formation of the dirty, heroin-fueled scene in NYC, to which birthed thousands of imitators and detractors?

D!D!G is a venue in West Philly that encourages spastic dancing, the pointing of sweaty fingers and support for local and touring acts. Located at a gallery space at 5013 Baltimore Ave., the venue has established itself as a destination for all things music. In the words of co-founder Tris Palazzolo the space is a “loose, free flowing collective.”
