    Can't wait til this day is over. Took Thursday and Friday off from work and roadtripping it down to Philly from Rhode Island. 10c reserved for Philly 1 and then behind the stage for Philly 2 in Section 120. Had to bite the bullet and get the Philly 2 tickets from Stubhub.

    This Philly 2 show has been a thorn in my side as far as tickets go. At least I'm in the building though!

    See all you crazy fuckers in Philly! Safe travels!

    Ive been following Accuweather and seeing a lot out there about rain/storms. My flight is supposed to get in at 430PM local time, should I be concerned or is Philly news just talking drizzle and no storm?

    I'm not hearing anything about severe weather. Rain on and off and cloudy all day though. Hopefully you won't have any delays.

    noaa.gov is predicting rain into the evening, but not significant amounts.

    And just to confirm for anyone flying in and looking for a ride to the city, Lyft picks up from outside the terminals (I'm assuming UberX does as well). I was coming back from NOLA on Monday night and took Lyft, even with a 25% surcharge the ride was $18 to my place in South Philly (plus tip came to around $22), so still cheaper than a cab. And I'm assuming it would be even cheaper using either Lyft Line or UberPool. Just an FYI...

    le virtu 1927 e. passyunk or osteria 640n. broad. both have reputations for great hand made pasta...both near center city.

    These are great recommendations! Brigantessa (1520 E. Passyunk) is also delicious for pasta (and pizza).

    Sounds awesome! Where's dinner?

    Gran Caffe' L'Aquila (1700 block of Chestnut) is great for gelato & coffee. The Barnes is an amazing museum but requires advance reservations. Good rainy day activity. I've never been to the Rodin Museum...

    L'Aquila is legit. Always a good time to get grossed out at the Mutter.
