    The Burning Brides are great! Their first drummer, Mike was a drummer in our band 5 years back or so. Jason is an amazing drummer, too.

    Huffamoose was a great band. They melted down on their national tour, got back up and did a second CD that was great, then they melted down again. :(

    The Roots are amazing. They moved out of town, now.

    Stargazer Lily is great, too. they have a fun live show. They have another one of our ex drummers., Scooter. (Also the guy who books the Grape Street Pub.

    If you want to quiet it down a bit, and see two of the great jazz guitarists in the world, they live right in Philly and you can see them in small clubs:
    Jimmy Bruno
    and Pat Martino.

    The Philadelphia Orchestra is a pretty good band, too! :cool: None of their drummers ever played with us, though.

    Then there was the best band ever in the history of the world:
    Life on Mars!!! :D
    We melted down right when Huffamoose did, too, but soon to rise again!
