UntitledHello Everyone!
What Philly bands / venues does everyone like? Any venues you know of specifically highlighting garage punk / rock'n'roll?
Also, if you’re in a band: I’m always looking for garage / punk / surf / rockabilly groups to play shows with in the Philadelphia area. Send me a message with your band’s information!

UntitledWould second (third?) any vote for The Improbables, St. James & The Apostles and GTVs. All put on amazing live shows. Green Rock Tavern and The Station rule too!

UntitledThanks for the links kopper. I saw Explosive Head at the M-Room and they played an awesome set.

UntitledHey Mike:
The Improbables, The Scovilles, St. James and The Apostles (psyche,) The Midnight Beat, The GTVs, and Thee Shut Downs are a few.
No venues that really highlight garage, you just get a good show here and there. Watch The Station, JRs, PhilaMOCA. KFN and Johnny Brenda's for larger names.

UntitledYes, they're really cool! I see Dry Feet is playing Kung Fu Necktie this September so I'll be checking that out.
Another great place for punk shows is JR's Bar.

UntitledDry Feet, Cousin Brian, The Eeries: a few philly bands that I've been really into lately.
Best venue that I've been to there is hands down Johnny Brenda's.
