“There was this hot blonde in a Jaguar. We made eye contact and spent the rest of the time (in the traffic jam) flirting,” Phillips said. “But I wasn’t able to get her number, or give her mine. It was really frustrating because I would have made conversation (with her) if I could have, but it was impossible.”
Philly EDGE was at Whiskey Tango (14000 Bustleton Ave., Philadelphia) Friday, Jan. 27 for its first, Last Friday (confusing, we know). See pics of the event.
Zillions of local scenemakers crowded the Franklin Institute Saturday night for the annunal Hair O' The Dog black tie party. Of course, Philly EDGE was there too.
See pictures of how good everybody looked.
