So, our pal Aaron Krolikowski — whom you may remember from Vince Fumo’s “River of Tears” — has been sketching his fingers bloody, attending shows at the 2009 Live Arts & Philly Fringe Festival and recording them in the oldest fashion known to man: Pen on paper, and quickly. Above is an image from The [...]

Our tipster says that these are about to be posted on the front doors on the Central Library. We swear we’re not trying to make you cry today. Sorry, everybody. Seeing something around town of note? Cameraphone it to: tips[at]philebrity[dot]com.

Philly’s Constant Hitmaker rocks the Total Philly Zen Anthem Of Ever last month in the park. Video courtesy the tight bros at Scrapple.tv. By the way, what is up with the bootleg Kurt Vile t-shirts on eBay?

Some of the goodest, cleanest fun we’ve had over the last few years has been with our friends at the 215 Festival, Philly’s annual weekend fest that’s chock full of all things bookish and nerd-sexy. So we were stoked to hear that the 215 Fest is ramping up right now for this year’s edition, which [...]

· Sunday, October 4th: David Sedaris at The Keswick Theater. He’s an American treasure. And a hero to lispers everywhere. · Tuesday, October 20th: David Cross at The Merriam Theater. You know, we’ve been thinking for a while now that, what with all the birthers, deathers and frothing-at-the-mouth, fucking deluded congressmen, what the world could [...]

The above letter went out earlier this morning the various and sundry partners of the Fairmount Park System — community groups and such who mind neighborhood parks which fall under Fairmount Park’s umbrella (full list here) — and, well, it looks pretty dire.

With Republican Jim Gerlach stepping down from his congressional post to pursue the gubernatorial race in 2010, we are starting to hear the first rumblings from PA District 6 about the next congressional elections. You may remember that Gerlach has basically been hanging on to his seat in Congress by the skin of his teeth [...]

And so The Most Screwed Up Newspapers In America will have to wait until tomorrow. Everyone, this is Louis. (Pronounced Frenchy-style: Loo-wee.) Louis, this is everyone. Obsessive googling has led us to believe that Louis is an Australian Cattle Dog — there is definitely some Dingo in this dude — but really, who knows. Louis [...]

We were surprised to learn so many new things today — for starters, that Philadelphia has a Lacrosse Team! And not only that, but it’s part of a larger national organization of indoor lacrosse teams that play indoors on hockey rinks covered in astroturf! We also learned that said team has its own dance squad, [...]

Next time you head out to good ol’ Lancaster, PA — home to The Chameleon Club, one of the area’s only outposts of the Waffle House chain, and a place where I lost like 9 stoned months sometime in the early 1990s — thinking you’re getting a piece of old-timey country livin’, just mind the [...]

A lot of you are either transplants (welcome!) or too young to remember (please shut up for a moment and stop texting) what Philadelphia was like back in the 1970s and 1980s. It was a wild, hungry time. At Christmas, for instance, since there was no money (and frankly, not a lot of people) around, [...]

Ever heard of Holidate? Neither have we. Apparently, it’s a reality show on SoapNet where they take two women who apparently believe the way, or at least one of the ways, to true love is via reality television, have them swap cities and then go on dates hand-picked for them and let the good times [...]
