Philadelphia Bands

Now the question is how many of these bands can tell me where to get a good cheesesteak.

hollertronix: too overhyped / too early to really judge how good it actually is.

fact checking cuz... take note:

ween is incorrect. the band states in the lyrics to "freedom of 76" mannequin was filmed at woolworths; it was filmed at the wanamaker building, where lord & taylor is currently located.

however, woolworth was located across the street on chestnut. it closed in '96-97.

Then I will revel in the multitude of possible answers.

Actually, scratch that, your answer is the quintessential philly answer.

where is grand buffet from? (not that i like them or anything).

- Schooly D - "PSK What Does It Mean"
- Hall & Oates - "I Can't Go For That"
- Franklin - "Major Taylor" (the 7" mix with the whistle)
- Freeway feat. Peedi Crakk - "Flipside"
- Eve - "Gotta Man"
- John Coltrane - "Greensleeves" (Africa/Brass version)
- DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince - "Summertime"
- Jill Scott - "Slowly, Surely (Theo Parrish Mix)"
- Roni Size/Reprazent feat. Bahamadia - "New Forms (Remix)"
- Josh Wink - "Higher State of Consciousness"

i kinda hate this town.

Actually, scratch that, your answer is the quintessential philly answer.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA. its funny 'cause its true. the water we drink here is really haterade in disguise.

Beer store: The Foodery on 10th & Pine.

note: I don't live 'nere no more.

Man, I miss Philly.

Does anybody know what is up with MantaRay? Do they still gig at all?

And that act The Low Numbers from like 6 years ago? I thought they were going to be huge, saw them at The Balcony right when it opened and never heard anything about them after that night.

And what ever happened to those guys in the Interpreters. Man, they were huge for about 6 minutes back in the 90s, weren't they. I'll throw out props for Lefty's Deceiver and defunct acts Haywood and Moped.

and who is king god and why does my ex bandmate who now lives in philly think he's so great?

"got buds in these:
excelsior
amen booze rooster
aspera"

search: excelsior
destroy: amen booze rooster, aspera.

And that act The Low Numbers from like 6 years ago? I thought they were going to be huge, saw them at The Balcony right when it opened and never heard anything about them after that night.

the low numbers changed their name to the hi soft. i havent seen them since the name change, but i do remember them being really really good.

and good call on Espers; they just played a few minute ago, here.
