The Yinzers take over the Barbary every third Thursday and play space jams and dance music and sparks remembrance music and fight over whether to play more Pixburg or Philly soul jams.  The yinzers are residents and bring in Billy Werner from Robotique and Shawn Ryan from Hurrah to play jams.  Remember kiddies, dance music is forever but Metropolis only every third Thursday.  I bet they totally came up with that when they were raving.  It’s one of those things that totally makes sense then but then later, the planets don’t align and it doesn’t make as much sense.

Philadelphyinz, Billy Werner and Shawn Ryan at Metropolis at the Barbary, free!!!!!, 951 Frankford.

Yinzers.

This looks dope. Local film premiering this Thursday at the Arbol Cafe.

Sole is a documentary that takes an almost anthropological look into the underground world of sneaker culture in Philadelphia. This film is part of the WYBE series called Philadelphia Stories. A portion of it will air on PBS Affiliate WYBE in May as a part of their sixth season of the annual mini-series event. While sneakers serve may serve their functional or fashionable purposes for hundreds of millions, they also serve as a serious hobby and lifestyle for mavens the world over. Sneakers become not only a collector’s item, but some would say that they are even part of a modern art movement.The film goes deep into this underground world by interviewing boutique owners as well as designers and store buyers in order to bring full perspective into this unique business. Sole brings the viewer inside their world for a truly entertaining and informative look into the multidimensional landscape that is sneaker culture. Follow Philadelphia’s heavy sneaker hitters as well as everyday sneaker collectors to see what makes them so oddly passionate about this multi-billion dollar industry.
When: Thursday, May 22, 2008, 8:30 p.m.
Where: Arbol Café (209 Poplar Street)
Cost: FREE (BYOB)
