I just got back from lunch and I feel like my face melted off in the oppressive pre-Summer heat.  Try to stay cool this weekend but don’t slack on going out to these worthwhile events and having some fun.

Sunday, June 10th

Sunday is a bike racin’ day with the 23rd Annual Philadelphia International.  9 a.m. free.

Downstairs at World Cafe Live has the legendary Lee “Scratch” Perry.  It’s at 8pm and I bet this will be a good show because every time I’ve seen Lee Perry it’s been worth it but still this show is kinda retardedly expensivesivesivesivesivesivesiveiveiveiveiveeeeeeeee.

The Low Budgets are not to be confused with DJ Low Budget!  They are a punk band and they are playing the LAVA Space at4134 Lancaster Ave with Dave Smolen at 7pm.  It’s a punk show so I bet that it’s five bucks.

The North Star Bar hosts the way under-rated Wheat plus The Yarrows.  8pm.  $10.  I wish this show was on another day so I could walk over but like..who are we kidding?  We’re going to be sitting at home watching the FINAL EPISODE of The Soprano’s.
