    The Roots is my favorite band from the area. Also, Mr. Heavyfoot, a band from Northeast Philly, is really good.
    I believe the children are our future... unless we stop them now...

    i have never been a big octane fan. there are definately more creative and more interesting bands in the area.

    Dr. Dog and The Teeth. Both very good and unique in their own ways. Dr. Dog is actually opening up for The Raconteurs. You can find them on myspace.

    A friend of mine is friends with the Capitol Years, so she lent me a few of their albums. They're not my favorite band in the world or anything, but I like listening to them every now and then. They usually get a really nice groove going in their songs.
    Spectrum 4/28/03
    State College 5/3/03
    Camden 7/5/03
    Camden 7/6/03

    makes much more sense

    Anthony is still a great fucking drummer to watch.. Richie is a douchebag, and they got 2 new tools playing Bass and Guitar...

    I think Espers and Bardo Pond are from there. They're very different, but both quite good.
