Coachella 2011

Posted on by Amanda

In case you are just finding out, the official 2011 Coachella lineup has been announced! I’m honestly not sure how I feel about it at the moment. I think this might be the first lineup in my last few years of going where I’ve seen and heard of more acts than before. Thankfully, there are quite a few I haven’t seen before that I would love the opportunity to see such as Animal Collective, Bright Eyes, Neon Trees, Jimmy Eat World Bloody Beetroots, Interpol, and Best Coast to name a few. And really, isn’t that what festivals are for?

Pepper’s Ghost Countdown: 2 Weeks!

Posted on by Kristen

I’m beginning to hyperventilate the event I’ve been anticipating for months now is only two weeks away. Pepper’s Ghost playing The Grape Room in Philadelphia. Janurary 22nd.

Here is one of my favorite Pepper’s Ghost songs. It was never released. It probably won’t be played on the 22nd as Dave Hartley won’t be there…but this is one of the most beautiful songs ever written and performed(in my opinion), so I will share it. It moves me every time I hear it.

Pepper’s Ghost Countdown: 3 Weeks!

Posted on by Kristen

Happy New Years!! We are now only three weeks away from what will surely be one of the highlights of my 2011, the reunion show for my favorite local Philly band, Pepper’s Ghost. The show takes place January 22nd at The Grape Room in Manayunk. I hope to see you all there! It’s a bit sad really having what could very well be one of the best days of my year so early on. Really, it could all be a let down from here.

Or maybe this event is just indicative of what kind of year this will be. I think I’ll look at it that way!

So let’s really start this year off right…with some Pepper’s Ghost tunes! Enjoy!

Every year, Pepper’s Ghost wouldput on a Halloween show. These were some of the best, most memorable shows. They even performed a Halloween song entitled “I Am A Ghost”.

Here’s a video from the Halloween show they did at Milkboy Coffee. Let’s relive this memory and prepare ourselves for some new Pepper’s Ghost memories created January 22nd in Philadelphia at The Grape Room…!!

SO EXCITED!!
