Come sweat your butt off at the First Unitarian Church on Wednesday, September 17 as WKDU and R5 Productions host Why? and Mount Eerie. Purchase your tickets here or at the door.

From R5:

Why?
A folk-pop, indie-hop, sometimes-mustachioed, psych-rock quartet fronted by Yoni Wolf, former member of cLOUDDEAD and Reaching Quiet as well as collaborator with Hood, Fog, DJ Krush, Boom Bip, Sole, Dept. of Eagles, and 13+God. Why? released a mega superstar awesome album back in 2005. When it first came out we would playing an advance of it in Spaceboy and literally every single customer would come up to the counter - asked what it was was and then asked if they could purchase it. And it makes sense they would ask, as artists such as Boards of Canada, Mum, Tv On The Radio Stereolab, Danielson Famile, The Notwist and Mogwai have been singing their praises for his recorded output lately. Yo La Tengo took him out on a full U.S. tour . Yoni writes and sings mainly, but he’s also known to dance, play any instrument he can get his hands on (piano, keyboard, guitar, bass, drums, harmonica), sample, and occasionally beat his chest like a gorilla. Doug is the utility man, maneuvering such heavy machinery as pianos, guitars, samplers and turntables. Josiah plays drums, teaches drums to little kids, eats drums for breakfast, and sleeps drums at night. Driven by brotherly competition, he also plays anything that Yoni plays. Matt sticks to his guitars. Their latest record is AWESOME. We love this band! Anticon Records.

Mount Eerie
A hodge-podge of tape-loop trickery, stereo panning, super fuzz bass, radio signals, acoustic pluckings, clamoring drums, tympani, xylophone, organ, distorted piano, keyboards and noise that aims for the lo-fi jugular. Delicate pop songcraft, emo-blown yearning, and white-hot rockers, loaded with hooks, harmonies, well thought (and placed) lyrics, and imagination galore. K Records.

THE SEMI-ANNUAL PUNK ROCK FLEA MARKET – SUMMER EDITION !

It’s that time again for the semi-annual (twice a year) PUNK ROCK FLEA MARKET. Our most popular reoccurring event/show/whatever (by far). All proceeds raised will goto the purchase of necessary equipment and supplies to ensure that all ages shows continue to remain a reality at The First Unitarian Church in Philadelphia - mainly the remaining payment for our new liability insurance policy. Do not let the name lead you to believe that it’s just punk records, clothes etc. - it’s a full on flea market with everything from furniture, to laptops / computers , to stereo equipment, to handmade apparel, to vegan treats, information from various non-profit groups, book stores, artists selling their work, bicycles & skateboards and whatever else we can fit onto the ballroom floor at The Starlight Ballroom.

The Starlight just added an additional 8 ventilation and cooling units just for this weekend !

In addition to the normal flea market stuff there will also be a full bar and food service kitchen to make the day go by a little faster.
