About me:
DIY, Philly! serves to inform Philadelphia of numerous, wonderful events, parties and shows that are hosted by the community rather than large, exploitative businesses.

FOR NOW: POST YOUR DIY EVENTS IN MY COMMENTS SECTION. LISTINGS COMING SOON!!!

BANDS WHO WANT SHOWS:

Please don't ask me for shows: I list them - I don't book them. I will make it clear when that changes. Please, use the links in my "music" sections to find venues/promoters.



Who I'd like to meet:
Those that do: Artists, Musicians, Dancers, Writers, Actors, Poets, Activists, Small Business Owners, Community Organizers, Dreamers and Screamers.

Those that support the arts and conscientious consumers.

Join us and spread the word!

{to OWN this 0:27:18, 8song album by the "plaintive" (Emit Es oF) T_B_A_ titled NEGATIVE ZERO without track breaks, click on the image above. it is quite noisy and does not contain anything but shameful honesty as it will surely cost you money for the looping cassette tape @ performances. this is for those living viscerally, of isolation or while reading Nietzsche. T.B.A. is on two d.i.y. labels It Is Inc. & Intermediate. you may find TBA performing @ DANGER DANGER GALLERY w/ LITTLE TEETH, HERMIT THRUSHES, SNOW CAPS & MATT CURZ ONE on October 18th. enjoy your nothingness!}

Big Ocean (Adventure Island, Philly) 

An electric wave surfing itself forever
