Two Drunk Guys Review: b’lieve i’m goin down…

Bake: A couple years ago Kurt Vile was getting a ton of buzz and I was certain that he was going to break the fuck out. Then I listened to one song that was supposedly a single that was 10 minutes long and thought this asshole is a goner. Still, Wakin’ On a Pretty Daze…

Philly Concert Picks Sept. 23rd – 25th

The Pope is coming to town and shitting in everyones mouths on Saturday so there’s not a whole lot going on this weekend.  My advice is to get the hell out of dodge while you still can.  However, for the poor bastards like myself that are stuck here, there are a few good shows going down…
