Punk Rock Boot Camp, Goth Moms: Welcome to Philadelphia!

Posted over 2 years ago
Two articles in today's Inquirer on why DIY and Philly rules: Li'l Goths: The Goths have multiplied, procreated no less! Photo and article here: http://www.philly.com/inquirer/image/20070916_Lil_Goths.htmlAnd my favorite! Punk Rock Boot Camp! I want my gym to offer these tunes instead of the stuff I hear from the spinning room.... Black Flag, Bad Brains, 7 Seconds, Stiff Little Fingers. http://www.philly.com/inquirer/image/20070916_Punk_Rock_Boot_Camp.htmlCheck out his website for lovely views of punks working out along the scenic Delaware River! http://brianadoff.com/PunkRockBootCamp.html

  2. ivylander says Indeed, if I have to run the treadmill to Nickelback one more time, I may just lose it completely.

  3. Dale says That Kinderbats sounds pretty cool; I'd start one here, but my kids don't really do black and the locals would keel-haul us.

  5. dharmachris says RK, you could teach the class. We are still waiting for this as a baby shower gift. My wife observed that the local moms have a uniform of sorts, so she is already rebelling.

  6. darmuzz says Great stuff; makes me feel like a less bad parent - I only dressed in black for 5 years

  7. Lizziegreeneyes says I am all about the punk/skater/rock vibe for my nephews... & I don't care what anyone says - they exude this coolness that isn't as aparent in the "oh, how cute" ensembles... Yes Chris, another reason why Philly rocks... dunno how I missed these articles - I am going to stand in the corner now for at least 10 minutes ;)

  8. TynansAnger says Seriously, the Philly indie scene is growing rapidly. The gentrification in New York has gotten so out of hand that people are moving 2 miles south nowadays. In 5-10 years, Philly may be the new Brooklyn (there's a thought.)

  9. Lizziegreeneyes says Woo hoo... Philklyn - the Philly Brooklyn hybrid ;)

  10. ivylander says With all due respect, Philadelphia will never be the "new" anything. It will always be its own incomparable self.

  11. TynansAnger says By 2 miles i mean 2 hours, of course. I'm aware of Philly's culture—which includes the way they don't really exhale when pronouncing the first syllable of their football team's name—but it will have to deal with an infiltration of us New Yorkers soon enough. I know a couple of a real estate moguls, so hopefully this Rangers/Yankees/Jets fan will not have to face that fate.

  12. dharmachris says Does that mean Lancaster will become the new Philadelphia? Is Malvern the new West Chester? Is Chester Springs the new Main Line? I used to think we were the new Trenton. Rendell is a New Yorker. Phil Klyn! lizzie, too funny!! Ivy, I agree, 100%, even if McNabb is on the Must Trade Now list now for WIP sports radio. Charles Barkley was on MNF last night (I miss that guy!) and he kept repeating how Fluffyans need to give props to McNabb and Reid.
