Last night was the Phil’s first night game of the season. I was excited to sample all of the new vegan/vegetarian food options at the game. It was a sell out crowd at Citizens Bank Park and things were absolutely out of control crazy before I even got into the ballpark.

I’ve admitted as much on here before but it bears repeating - I care more about gross ballpark food than I do about baseball. We were thrilled when Citizens Bank Park offered up some amazing vegetarian options last year. But when Hans FV went to a game to investigate, he was let down. Never one […]

If Tanis Half-Elven was to fire a steel tipped arrow at some Burmese nationals while hiding out in the Fuherbunker, you’d have my last week’s movie selections. My movie mash up review this time will consist of Dragonlance (2008), Rambo (2008), and Der Untergang (2004) as a pleasing palette cleanser.

Our friend O.B . hooked us up with some awesome Mummers pics that he flicked while watching the rain delayed parade on New Years Day - including one of a guy with a tattoo on his back that says ‘Mummers Forever.’ That’s some hardcore dedication!

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 […]

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 […]

Note the odd “dewmocracy” mountain dew posters right next to them.
Interesting. I’m pretty surprised the homophobes in dah naybahood
haven’t ripped these down yet.

Good morning vampires it’s been a slow  few weeks and we have no real excuses. I figured i’d enliven your monday morning with a few photos from our Chikara Pro Lucha Libre wrestling adventure. As a few people suspected this was indeed not real mexican wrestling. I didn’t see a single latino (looking) person in […]

Oh my god! Friday is completely out of control and it’s gonna be pretty impossible to pick just one thing to do that night.  Saturday things chill out a little bit - but just barely. And Sunday…Sunday is fairly packed full of fun and excitement.

Oh man! I’m seeing Van Halen in South Philly tonight. I haven’t seen them since 1988 and I’ve never seen them with Diamond Dave singing. Don’t tell me that you are too punk rock or whatever for the mighty VH. To bastardize a quote from my main man Damone “Can you honestly tell […]

Oh man! I’m kind of beat up and tired from the excellent Cola Freaks, Eddy Current Suppression Ring, Clockcleaner, Pissed Jeans show that I went to last night.  It was a great way to start what is going to be a excellent weekend.  Here are some picks, yo

This needs to be an official FV Event. I saw these flyers posted all over the neighborhood and had to invite the masses. I don’t give a crap about wrestling, real or fake but when you add an awesome mask and change the language, suddenly i’m into it. This is at the old ECW building […]

9 Murders in the past 4 days. Way to go Philadelphia, you really know how to have a good time. Keep up the good work. Also Saturday night I was right around the corner from the Broad and Reed murder and my friend walked past the medical guys examining the body, THIS SHIT IS REAL

As you know i live in South Philly, in “the neighborhood”. You don’t fuck with anyone’s shit here lest you are willing to suffer the wrath. Some shitface privileged white fucks think it’s cool to get mad ups by painting directly on people’s houses. This will not stand. Whatever happened to self control and […]

In keeping with our theme this week of video game nerdiness, I decided to search out the Mountain Dew® Limited Edition Halo® 3 Game Fuel(tm) and give it a scientific groping and tasting. Then of course we needed to ruin your day by making you read about it. Proceed with caution, Master Chief and Caffeine […]

So all of us Philadelphians know that the Phillies are the losingest sports franchise in the history of the world. But yesterday we finally climbed to a monumental number no one can top. Our dear Fighting Phils have lost for the 10,000th time. More at ESPN.com

There are a million great things to do this weekend (including two amazing HC / punk shows!) !!!  Get out there and sweat it out, yo!

World Famous Ink and Dagger [feel free to list the others in the comments section] guitbox specialist Don Devore to marry says the New York Times!

Every one’s favorite vocal Philadelphian racist, (you need to see his showcase of motorcycles covered in Confederate flags, which is extra odd since he’s a Yankee!) Joey Vento is featured currently on the front page of BBC News. Señor Joey, the owner of Geno’s Steaks is once again in the limelight due […]

Hans posted a little while back about some of his favorite places to go eat in south Philadelphia [both of which are awesome]. One of them, Cacia’s, has opened a second location, maybe like ten days ago, next door to the Palm Tree Market [still the best coffee in the neighborhood] on the 700 block […]
