[   ]    A friendly bet on the outcome of the Phillies-Brewers National League Divisional Series between the on-air folks at WXPN-FM (88.5) and 88Nine Radio in Milwaukee has the winner getting more than just a cheesesteak or a bratwurst. Either Jim McGuinn of YRock on XPN or Scott Mullins of 88.9-FM will get to program the loser’s station for one hour.

 

Bad enough to be dumb enough to sell drugs. Worse still to use a political candidate’s likeness to do it …and use the wrong year. Ugh. (Times Leader)

First Fridays - Doylestown, Newtown, Hatboro, Main Line, Old City.

Some community events tempt you into admission with deep-fried novelty food (like Oreos or pickles), string bands, a car show and appearances from local talent such as Michelle Grossman and Chris Therien.

 

Phillies face the Brewers at The Bank in Game 2 of the NLDS on TBS: 6 p.m. Find a bar, y’all.

 

Wii Night - $2 Heineken and Heineken Light at Blue Dog, Chalfont: 8 p.m.

 

Best use of this redwood-stained picket fence ever?

Probably, unless you can get Megan Fox or Jessica Alba to stand in front of it.

Beautiful and talented Jenny Lewis- at Keswick Theater, Glenside: 8 p.m.

 

$1 domestic drafts at Big Heads Town & Country, Hatboro

 

The Spinto Band, the Wilmington, Delaware indie-band-of-the-second, is currently bouncing around Europe like it was the DelMarVa. The group will release its new album Moonwink next Tuesday (Oct. 7). They’ll be at The Church on Oct. 17, but there is no sense waiting that long to give them a listen. Check out “Summer Grof” at our MySpace page, now.

Remember those Phillies 2008 Division Champs hats – the ones (at right) that already sold out from the Phils MLB site?  There are more on eBay because, apparently, no one can find them anywhere.  

    Well, the Phils and Major League Baseball have a backup 2008 Division Champs cap that is red, with writing and such (below), and is even WORSE.
