No this isn't an ode to the Rolling Stones (though we do hear the bass line from that song in our head when we're walking down Market Street in the summertime). This is an ode to our love, Philadelphia. We are counting the hours until we get back to your edgy goodness. Unlike our other trips to Vegas, this one sucks.

Kristoffer Ragnstam (also on MySpace, natch) is playing a free show at World Cafe's Upstairs Live venue this Friday night at 7PM, and we wanted to let you know it might be worth dropping by to check him out. He's from Sweden, but you'd hardly know it when you listen to him sing on his latest EP, Do you want a piece of me. Sure, he's got a slight accent, and there's that one song where he mentions Stockholm, but otherwise his music is pure American rock - sometimes in the classic, quasi-Rolling Stones variety, other times flavored with funk, indie, or dance/electronica - but rock all the same. The standout track is definitely "Breakfast by the Mattress" (mp3), a catchy pop track about stars or something. We're not clear on that, but the chorus is super-fun. Our favorite line is from the chorus of another of his songs, though: "I woke up left-handed." Wow! That was a bad night. But we bet you'll have a good night listening to Mr. Ragnstam this Friday. more ›

How would you describe the typical Jethro Tull fan? Well, middle-aged, for one. Phillyist has been able to drink legally for several years now, but we were still probably the youngest fan in the audience . The Rolling Stones wish that they were still so sharp. more ›
