ICE ILLUSTRATED: Lucky Old Souls buys a food truck, LiveNation rolls a seven, Magnet mag goes monthly and Patti Labelle's pooch meets mine.
I'll have more on this next week but allow me to whet your imagination with the simple phrase: Lucky Old Souls just bought a food truck. LOS is the tag that Matthew Feldie Feldman uses for all of his jazz operations including his night at Moonstone and his under-construction club at 17th and McKean. Add to that a brand new food truck that will launch sometime between the second and third week in September. Though Feldman hasn't told me yet what food stuff will be sold, I'm hoping for a jazzed up menu of Monk Meatballs, Frank Weiss Franks and Hamiet Bluett Hamburgers.

On Sept. 6, Philly’s Geoff Gordon, Live Nation mid-atlantic president, along with Sands Bethlehem pres. Bob DeSalvio, Bethlehem’s Mayor John Callahan and Jeff Trainer, co-founder of Vision Entertainment Group will gather at the Sands Bethlehem Casino Resort to discuss the Event Center, a live venue with 5,000+ square feet of meeting space (roomy) and Emeril’s Italian Table (ugh). Keep it classy and not cheesy and the SEC could be a contender. Book Childish Gambino and not Carrot Top and we’re fine.
COOK, that Audrey Claire Taichman takeover of the Snackbar spot on Rittenhouse hosts winners of The Festival on the Square auction on Sept 6. The next day, COOK is open to the paying-public (well, 16 seats) for Philly chef private events, scientific and educational purposes and parties dedicated to hallah. Hooray.
On the good news bad news tip: Red Flag Media will open the books for Magnet Magazine, the Philly-based indie rock print quarterly run by Eric T. Miller that turned into a web-only outlet at the dawn of the 2000s. The new Magnet will be monthly for the first time since 1994. Bad news is that Magnet replaces Cowbell, the 17 issues-old indie mag run by CP’s one-time honcho Brian Howard. The ish that hits newsstands in the next few weeks — Beirut’s Zach Condon on the cover — will be the last time the Cow’s bell rings. Parting. Sorrow.
Shank's Original is gearing up to celebrate their 50th anniversary with retro priced sandwiches in September. For instance, a roast pork sandwich for 79 cents, rather than its usually priced $6. Bring back the tripe and we’ll talk.
The Parade with the Miss Rockaway Armada that I wrote about here lifts its sails on Sat., Sept. 3 at Broad and Spruce at 5 p.m. and lands at Clark Park at 6:30 p.m. with performances galore.
WHOWHATWHERE: Forgot to mention in my Rachael Ray Icecubes that while we were hanging back in the trailer area at Wharton and Percy, Patti LaBelle and Mr. Cuddles, her white shih tzu, met me and my black greyhound Django. “That’s a greyhound?” asked Patti. “Such a beautiful dog.” Django says thank you. Our intrepid photographer Scott Weiner did his weekly radio station snaps and caught Kicking Daisies at Q102's performance theater, C J Hilton at Saturday Night Online and the holy rolling Switchfoot performing at Radio 104.5 in Bala.
