sith2076 Posted February 13 Report Share Posted February 13 The Olde City area probably has the best bars/clubs area all within walking distance (or at least short cab rides from each other). My personal favorite pre-game spot is Lucy's Hat Shop (or just Lucy's), in the 200 block of Market St. Every time I've gone, the DJ spins pretty good hip-hop (if you're into that). I rarely stay all night though, because it can get very packed. There's a bunch of clubs to go from there, Five-Spot, Envy, Paradigm, and Life are probably the most popular ones. They tend to play more house-esque music, and can be fun if you're with the right group of people.Now as far as some REALLY good music, in case you haven't heard, Deep Dish is spinning at Transit on Delaware Ave. If you like Sasha, Digweed, etc., then I command you to go see them. I think it's $25 at the door, and they go 10PM to 10AM.Sunday I think Kimball Collins is playing at Life, I'm assuming you have off Monday for President's Day?It's going to be a Philly weekend for me too, I grew up in SJ right outside Philly and I'm going down to reunite with the fellas. Fri and Sunday I'm not sure where yet, but Sat. I'll def. be seeing DD. Hope that helps, maybe I'll run into a Happy Kitten somewhere along the way...

sith2076 Posted February 13 Report Share Posted February 13 Oh yeah, and the REAL cheesesteaks are at Geno's...get your arteries ready... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happykittn Posted February 14 Author Report Share Posted February 14 You guys are the BEST... I'm getting all hyped now. I have a feeling Philly's going to be amazing... Kimball Collins, Deep Dish, and Vicious (is it true JV'll be at Shampoo on Sunday night? it does check out on his website) in 3 days are going to be hard to beat. If any of you want to meet up, send me a PM and I'll send along my cell... my girl I'm visiting isn't familiar with the club scene, so this'll be a first for her and her friends, too. I can't wait to show her a FANTASTIC time in her own city! What are the dress codes for all these places? Thanks again for all the tips, I can't wait to get me a nice fat Philly cheesesteak while resting up for another wild night... Getting ready to put on my daaaancing shoes,~kitten >^.^< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nifer Posted February 14 Report Share Posted February 14 Fluid (4 and south) on Fridays (Rich Medina & Dennis Perez - house - tribal, afro) and Saturdays (Sean Thomas & Pete Oss - deep house) are good. Soma (3 btwn Chestnut and market) on Fridays has Lorne and Saturdays its Cozmic Cat. Lucy's (3 and market) has Ricky Lee on Fridays and Benja Coleman on Saturdays. Soma and Lucy's have no cover but are 21+.If you're under 21, Motion has Angel Alanis and Eric Davenport on Friday. Every sunday at Lucy's has Drunken Monkey. You pay 20$ for free food, unlimited mimosas, bloody marys and drafts from 12-8pm. Roland Riso spins nu jazz, funk, deep house and classics.Most places don't have a strict dress code. Just look somewhat fashionable and don't wear sneakers or a baseball cap.As for shopping - Liberty One (16-17 and chestnut) has jcrew, victorias secret, ann taylor, aldo, godiva, aveda, and other stores. There are also a bunch of stores on Walnut St. btwn Broad st. and Rittenhouse Square (kenneth cole, bebe, origins, urban outfitters, anthropologie, banana republic, ralph lauren).
