Philly show after party

[JerseyDan]

i check myspace at work but i checked another site--wait, so this is a diner ??  i'm going to try to make it, though! i have to check w/ a couple other people.

Silk City is 1/2 diner 1/2 club, here is what NY Times said about it:

thanks, dan. looks like a cool place---i will most likely make it--

i'm also wondering if people are meeting up before the show--we'll be in town a little earlier ---i know there's another thread but i'm too lazy to find it-somewhere w/in walking distance--not too cheesy

Hey Everyone. I'm in for the post party at silk city! The question is what is going on for the pre-party? Looking forward to meeting everyone. I'll be the guy rocking some bagpipes tomorrow!
What time is everyone planning to line-up at the gates for the show?

things to consider:

friday is First Friday, the art opening day in Olde City...where the Khyber is located. this is the worst traffic day of the month and garages cost $25+. The downstairs bar has an $8 cover with no-names on stage. The upstairs has no cover but TECHNO djs, welcome back to 1994(the bad part of 1994). God love the Khyber, but Friday would be a "shit-show"

Silk City is only 5 short blocks away, much lower cover (i heard $5 or $3 w/ MMJ ticket)...Spring Garden is gorgeous nowadays...plus here is a fun post 2am bar there for this season's Fringe Festival which is a post Silk option. Did i mention the FREE KEG?!

Thanks for this info.  Had no idea about the First Friday thing...which sounds cool for all things except parking.  :)

Good news about Spring Garden, too.  That neighborhood was one that, in the past, I'd never walk alone in, let alone leave my car on the street.  Haven't eaten at Silk City in so long...hope that I can make it.  Will be a kind of reunion.  :)

Ive learned that I simply cant handle after parties with MMJ concerts. I dont know if its so much that I cant handle it as it is I dont want to. Heading out to a loud, crowded bar where I cant hear myself think let alone talk isnt my deal to begin with, and certainly isnt after a show. I like to sit back, maybe have a drink, and let it sink in, talk about it with people and enjoy the moment. Probably sounds corny, but I think its a fitting end to the night.

i totally agree brosphere!!
