| Oct 16, 2008: After 6 years, I finally remembered the e-mail address and password to log into this site.
In case you haven't figured it out, due to the lack of postings and reviews, I am no longer writing for Phillymusic.com. This is mainly because at first I could not devote the time needed for this type of work due to job committments, but now it's for an even bigger reason. I don't live in the area anymore.
My time with Phillymusic.com has been exciting and very educational to say the least. I've met some terrific bands and great people. The local Philadelphia music scene has come a long way since I first got involved and I'm so glad that I was able to be a part of it for some time.
So in the meantime, thank you all for being a part of Phillymusic and I wish you all good times and good tunes!
Keep Rockin'!
-Amy

| R.I.P. Dave Blood, Bassist of The Dead Milkmen | |
| Mar 11, 2004: Dave Blood, bassist for defunct Philadelphia rock act the Dead Milkmen, committed suicide Wednesday, according to a post by his sister on the band's official message board (http://deadmilkmen.com). He will be missed by all of Philadelphia, and PhillyMusic.com sends our condolences to his family and many friends.
"This morning Dave Blood is no longer with us," wrote Blood's sister, Kathy. "David is my brother. Since the breakup of the band David has never really found his niche in life. My brother was a smart, clever and talented person. Inner peace has seemed to elude him for the last many years. Sometime last night David chose to end his life. He left a note that I don't know all of what it said, he was not elaborate -- but he said he just could not stand to go on any longer." | |

| Better than Gelati! The Lickables! by Blake | |
| On a hot day, you can shed a few layers or take a dip, but nothing helps cool you down like some good music and a lick of your favorite flavor. Lo-fi is the life for me and too many groups try to polish a turd for weeks on end in a digital void somewhere away from the sun. The Lickables lay it down and get back to the business of chasing skirts and
talking shit with beer-in-hand. Their minds are as simple as their tunes and why muck-up the works with chrome plating when the the raw product is so shiny? 'Man of Science' is an
ode to geekdom and slap-happy ding-dings sporting pocket-protectors as if they were deputy badges. "I'm a man of science, I'm a man of wonder. I can't swim, so I just go under". Those little coat hanger arms just can't keep geeks afloat. I like the music and the attitude, but went back to the site to listen in again and it had been hacked… hopefully, you will be able to check them out… website | |
