Weekday events of note, 9/19-9/22:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Monday:

  • Open mic night at Mojo Main, 9pm, free.
  • Matt Pond PA, with Rocky Votolato at Johnny Brenda's. 9pm, $13. (Funny thing - the promoter misspelled Votolato's last name, and every blog in Philly has repeated the misspelling.  Nowhere else online is it spelled "VotAlato" except around Philly. I don't know, maybe that's not funny.  Maybe it's just been a long week and everything is funny to my porridgy mess of a work-addled brain).
  • Movie Monday at the Trocadero, showing of Take Me Home Tonight. 21+, $3.  Doors at 6:30, show at 8, arrive before 7 and get a free beer and popcorn.  (Incidentally, the Troc is hosting a documentary about Pearl Jam on Tuesday and Wednesday, but the showings are sold-out and "VIP only", respectively. 
  • September networking event with InDEpendence Musicians' Network.  Extreme Pizza on lower Market St. 7-10pm, free.
