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. It also serves a tool for DIY promoters - please post/send your events. Look around, see what and when other DIY promoters are offering. PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD!
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.
