Anders, if you are reading this, can we have lots of coffee-and-Baileys type drinks tonight?

Whatta bunch of old, withered dicks. Let the history books Encylopedia Metallica show: 11.11.97 Metallica’s free concert, dubbed the “Million Decibel March,” was helt in Philadelphia parking lot and was a great success. For the show’s intro, they showed Jaymz playing the famous ESPN commercials’ “Da-na-na, na-na-na” from the Sportscenter music on his guitar. Here [...]

You know, the First Lady has taken a lot of guff lately about her stance on childhood obesity. Her stance being, of course, that it’s bad. And you know, this is one of those things that, in a fit of pique, makes us want to disavow this great land forever. Because the thing is, America, [...]

Spotted this morning in the elevator at the Comcast Dong. Says our reader: “Can’t wait til Comcast is running NBC News…” Seeing something around town of note? Cameraphone it to: tips[at]philebrity[dot]com.

Whenever we talk to our friends in the museum biz, it’s always the same thing: They’re always very concerned with getting young adults (read: people who don’t have kids and thus are not forced to go to museums) into their respective museums, concerned that the programming is relevant, concerned that when The Olds die off [...]

It’s like God is sending a message to Brian Tierney: Don’t even think about it, dude.

After the January 12 earthquake in Haiti, the United States began airlifting many critically wounded Haitians to Florida hospitals. In the coming days and weeks, Pennsylvania will also begin receiving injured Haitians and their companions. Nationalities Services Center has joined several local agencies as part of a broad local response to deliver vital services and [...]

That’s right: As we speak, the Oppressor class is welcoming none other than that senile failure John McCain to the Union League on Broad between Sansom and Walnut. He will be accompanied by a dinner of liver and onions, not a single joke about tea bagging and a nagging sense that if he hadn’t picked [...]

Yes, it’s true: Sade‘s first album in nearly 10 years comes out tomorrow. And yes, it is also true: We are oddly psyched. We’ve been checking it out for about a week now, and so far, so good. “Soldier of Love” is the lead single, and there is also this song called “Babyfather” that rules, [...]

A fresh volley of shots has been fired in the ongoing battle surrounding efforts to dredge parts of the Delaware River to increase the depth of its shipping channel. (That’s what she said.) On one side are the dredging proponents: The US Army Corps of Engineers, the State of Pennsylvania, and the teamsters. The opposition [...]

John Murtha, we hardly knew ye. Murtha spoke truth to power, and here he is above, speaking out at the 2006 John F. Kenndy Profile in Courage Awards against the war in Iraq and healthcare.

Submitted by reader bernfiremon, and while we’re on the topic, even as lifelong fans — devotees, even — of The Who, even we must admit: That totally sucked. Enough already, Superbowl. Next year, we demand females and people of color on that stage. Ever since Janet Jackson revealed a sliver of boob, you people have [...]

We’ve been quite vocal in xpressing our disapproval of corporate behemoth hometown cable and internet provider Comcast’s move to rebrand itself as XFINITY. And guess what… we’re right! The graphic design and branding experts at UnderConsideration’s blog, Brand New, have just posted their review of the new XFINITY name and logo, and they don’t like [...]

IFC Films has picked up the controversial documentary about the Barnes Foundation, The Art Of The Steal. It’s slated for release on February 26 — no listings for local theaters yet — and the film, if the trailer is anything to go buy, is not nice to the politicians and art world of Philadelphia.

Over Snowmageddon Weekend, we finally got to sit down and spend some time watching the Jersey Shore marathon on MTV — we were kinda tired of just hating these people for no reason — and here is what we learned: There’s a Snooki in every crowd — the braying, bossy chubby girl who can’t let [...]

>>> We suppose we should get this out of the way sooner than later: That next snow storm you’ve been hearing about — the one that starts late Tuesday and blows clean into Wednesday — has now been upgraded to a blizzard (see conditions for Wednesday). We know you’ve all been paralyzed. Well, this week, [...]

With Valentine’s Day quickly approaching, we’ve been thinking about all of our single readers, all of whom we know would just be so much happier if only they were in relationships. (Ed: Really? Really?) What could we do to help them find “the one?” Since we know that they spend lots of time online (reading [...]
