I know we suck, but we are still going to rape you!

Alfonso Ribeiro presents: Breakin’ and Poppin’ circa 1985. No one is born a dancer. NO ONE!

In 1992 I was 17 years old. I was a straight-edged hardcore kid living in South Jersey. I was part of what was basically a 3 man crew. I was the punk rocker, my friend Thomas was the metalhead and my friend Brett was the hip-hopper. The early 90’s was a crazy time time for […]

Look who I found in the Prague Castle toy museum. None other then our
least favorite Philadelphia son, Eric Lindross. I knew i’d bump into someone I knew here at some point.

Goddamn it, I’m so tired from travelling and eating and more travelling and drinking and more eating that this installment of The Best Shit In Philly listings are going to be pretty bare bones. I think that I’m still drunk on Tofurkey…

This dog I guess lives at our hostel. I’m glad dogs understand every language (the language if dog love). We had a lovely game of catch and now it’s time to try and do some tourist shit before it rains.

We were pleasantly surprised to find out our hostel gives us free
breakfast. It consisted of all different kinds of bread, butter,
cheese, jams, and some weird canned meat. Praise Allah this bread is good. Now I’d only the American broads staying next […]

We’re out rocking the tourist zones right now. Found a hidden little veg eatery (turned out to be country life, decent food and ok price) that we’re About to hit. I bought labuda a soccer scarf but I’m wearing it and […]

Have you ever laughed in the face of death? Well, this past Sunday I actually threw a couple back in the face of death. Well, what I thought was the face of death. It was hard to tell behind that mask. For those of you who don’t have Fun Vampires as […]

Just got into Prague. We have the worlds tiniest room but its private
and cheap. Were about to attempt going out to a veggie place to eat.
Updates tomorrow maybe.

Because there is no copy and paste on the damn iPhone I have to write this twice. Quick notes so far on my journey. In general people that fly British airways are far better looking then people on American flights. Our specially ordered meals not only showed up but were amazing! We got the Asian […]

Listen up callow youth, in a few hours i’ll be departing this soiled land to the land of (former) communists, absinthe and motherland of Labuda’s family. That’s right -  i’m headed off to the Prague, Czech Republic. So please don’t forget to water the plants, check in on the message board and point out spelling […]

The Philadelphia Inquirer, in an article that could have been ripped from a punk rock fanzine circa 1992, asks: Can meat-eaters and vegetarians get along?
“This is the time of year we place a cooked brown carcass on the table, then reach inside its body cavity and scoop out powerfully odoriferous items that people are expected […]

Hyski O’Rooney McVoutie O’Zoot 1934-2007
Hy was a true Philadelphia legend who basically introduced rock n’ roll to the city. His weekly sock hops were very popular with teens in the 60’s. He was on several radio stations, most notably WIBG and then WOGL, during a career spanning 5-decades. He was also on syndicated television shows […]

There are a million things going on and I only have time to list the absolute cream of the crop type jawns so if it’s listed here then you know that it’s going to be off the chain …

Hey, is it tacky to promote your own event on a blog you help run and write dumb stuff for? We say “Hell to tha no!” and this Saturday night, me and Mike McKee are doing our monthly England Belongs To Twee night at The Khyber.
This month we are super excited to have our special […]

It’s kind of crazy - with technology enabling anyone with five minutes to kill and internet access the ability to find and download even the most obscure music - vinyl records seem to be seeing a bit of a resurgence. The coolest thing about this whole MP3 revolution is that I now have fast […]

Japan’s space agency, JAXA released two videos this week which are the first ever HD views of earth from 236,000 miles away. The space probe Kaguya sent the images Nov 7th back to the land of the rising sun and they are brilliant. Too bad it’s encoded in a flash player. At least we get […]

This is kind of next level - this avant-weirdo indie noise band Z’s and their label, Planaria, sent The Howard Stern Show some music and Howard and the gang not only played the music on the air but pretty much goofed on the band the entire time! You couldn’t ask for better coverage. Supposedly, Stern […]

Giant Robot - the fanzine dedicated to covering Asian and Asian-American pop culture - has hit issue FIFTY! That’s a Godzilla-like accomplishment. And in this issue they interview our friends.
