From fans to Friends

While most folks his age were peacefully asleep with visions of “Matlock” reruns and early bird specials dancing in their heads, 65-year-old Phil Lesh and his band recently rocked a sold-out Las Vegas nightclub to the rafters.
“We actually played ’til 5:15,” says Lesh, the legendary Grateful Dead bassist and Phil Lesh and Friends bandleader. “We started at midnight and played ’til 5:15. (Afterwards), I was a little tired, even though I had a nap beforehand.”

Big Heads (off York Rd. in Willow Grove) hosted the sounds of Chris and Jayy of Bonehead last night. See pictures here .

Philly EDGE was proud to be THE print sponsor of the WMMR CD release party Tuesday night (Dec. 6) at Grape Street Philadelphia in Manayunk for "Local Shots," a compilation CD made up of original songs from Philly-area artists.
The packed house had a chance to see acts like Jealousy Curve, Head, Jayy Mannon, Bridges and a Bottle and nine others. WMMR on-air personality and local music hero Jaxon served capably as the night's emcee.
