If you pull the turnstile towards you halfway (as if a person is exiting through it) it creates a gap that you can slip through discretely. This is what most adults who farejump do. Teens hop over.

What’s the deal with warehouse on watts? Never heard of it, but definitely interested in RAP Ferreira. This show isn’t even listed on his bandcamp

Yeah really shit take my dude. I’m 15 years in the industry and clicked through to the comments curious what I’d find. Charity is not stupid.

Yeah it’s a marathon of Philly campiness and debauchery. I would recommend you plan other activities such as meals and then check out the parade in between.
As another poster noted, the fancy brigades are gonna be the closest thing you get to a real parade. A lot of the other brigades are honestly just an excuse for bro’s to dress in silly outfits and get wasted in public. I’m talking about the actual parade participants not the spectators. Although they are generally drunk too.

Great suggestion, last minute Christmas gift, and the shaham concert doubles as a Valentine’s Day gift! Thanks! $90 for a pair of great seats with the young fans program.

You’re at least partially right. I have a dream of owning a bar/venue one day but it never occurred to me until now that this could have been the spot. And I just drove by it a week ago and noted it’s still closed. (I got detoured past it due to the trolley construction on Girard.)
Where you are wrong is that if it were an active music venue now, I would go to shows there. With that and Boot & Saddle gone, last small venue we’ve got seems to be Johnny Brenda’s. And first Unitarian I guess.

Last show I saw there was Dick Dale. That was pretty cool.

Yeah this article is where I realized I’m officially old.
Don’t wanna wish ill on this couple of bright eyed dreamers, but sure doesn’t feel like a young professional couple with dogs instead of kids kinda vibe in dog-walking distance of North Star. Also that place should be a concert venue.
