This Evening: Ragging The Literary Instrument
>>> So, did James Joyce like jazz? Funny you should ask, as we were just wondering the same thing. Tonight brings us the Bloomsday Edition of Philebrity Salon @ 700 (Second & Fairmount), beginning right after the Phillies game. Turns out, Joyce may have not liked jazz, but he did jazz:
“Ragging the literary instrument,” eh? Has a nice ring to it.
>>> Bill Callhan, formerly Smog, knows a thing or two about ragging the literary instrument. He’ll be doing it all over the place tonight at Johnny Brenda’s. Better wear a raincoat.
>>> And for those of you who prefer something perhaps a little more contemporary: Clues, featuring members of Unicorns and Arcade Fire, play an early, all-ages show (7PM) with Drink Up Buttercup at the Barbary.

You guys oughta start posting stuff like this maybe at least a few hours ahead of time. Can’t tell you how many times I would’ve liked to attend, but it was, well, last night by then, or in progress, so like too freaking late for me. My problem I’m too slow on the uptake? Maybe you just don’t want me there.
Can’t blame ya.
Soft pretzel for thought.

How is it that Philebrity can get down with The Jazz but loves all this talentless, bland indie rock?
