That's a great, little mini-documentary there. Glad that you were able to enjoy that scene. Thanks for sharing!

My formative years were '85-'92 in #Philly #WestPhilly I would _love_ to see old footage from that era. There were only a handful of clubs. But the warehouse/squat scene was vibrant and brought a lot of great music to my ears.

Check out my story on a stalled affordable housing project from Gaudenzia, which needs city owned land to move forward but cannot get City Council to release it in the face of community opposition https://www.inquirer.com/real-estate/gaudenzia-affordable-housing-drug-recover-land-bank-20250616.html
West Philly affordable housing project is stalled over concerns about drug treatment

City Council needs to enact legislation to move the parcels for Gaudenzia's affordable housing project out of the land bank.

6/21 ~ GASH (WI), PULSR (CT), TAURUS JUDGE, MICROGOBLET

Minimart, Saturday, June 21 at 08:00 PM EDT

SOUL-SOUFFLÉ SOUND DISPLAY

On Saturday, June 21st, we're running it up at the inimitable Minimart to bring you a sizzling hot summer slammer! Screamin' out of Eau Claire, Wisconsin, Gash is a Trojan horse whose fuzz-bent exterior gives way to smart, heartful songcraft set to make you cry and bang your head all at once. Connecticut's Pulsr remain deft math-rockin' maestros who deliver bipolar bursts of bellicose beauty. Microgoblet sound like if you did too much Galaxy Gas and got chased through a kaleidoscope by the Katamari ball. And Taurus Judge are Philly's newest dented-groove delivery service, shaking your brain upside-down by its ankles for every last drop of dopamine. Don your finest ass-kickin' boots and don't forget your abacus!

Markiya asked as I was strolling down the street if I were a professional™️ photographer, which is a question that still stings for reasons.

Her birthday is coming up in February and she wanted me to take pictures at her party.

Sadly I don’t live in Philly (yet)

Needed some nature and calm before heading home – something for the day and tonight. What's really great is that this scene is West Philadelphia, on Penn’s campus.
