>>> Oh my God! The Bravery still exist! (And here, we thought they had a whole Ugly Kid Joe/Candlebox thing happening with Jared Leto’s band.) Anyway, Radio 4 open for them tonight at the Trocadero, and you may laugh at us for saying this, but for real: The new Radio 4 record DOES NOT SUCK! We were more shocked than anybody, so you know, just keep it in mind. Word.
>>> Speaking of not sucking, Steve Volk and assorted PW cast rock the Kelly Writer’s House at UPenn. Volk is white-hot right now, between being pretty much the voice of reason on this whole Inky mess, as well as a story in Vibe this month on Philly’s sickening case of “When Keeping It Real Goes Wrong.” Plus, Anthony DeCurtis will be presiding. Be nice and try not to bring up the grisly death of rock criticism when he’s in earshot, OK?
>>> And happy 3-month anniversaire to Broadzilla at Upstairs At Sal’s. Normally, we are not in the habit of celebrating three months of one DJ night, but this photo came with the announcement, along with this rationale:

i know i know BFD right? but check out this pic of philly’s
madonna/michael/prince–ie dave/jayson/sean–all wigging out to daft
punk’s “one more time” at broadzilla a few weeks ago.
if that don’t make a party momma proud, i don”t know what does

Fair enough, kids. Free PBR and cupcakes from 9-10pm. 12th & Walnut. Not kidding about the cupcakes.
>>> And Icey Demons at Johnny Brenda’s for you weird beards out there.
>>> Plus, we’re keeping the light on in the office for any breaking strike news. Park it here for best results.
