THE SHOWDOWN: Live music in Philly from Aug. 27-31

POSTED: Monday, August 27, 2012, 12:00 PM

Filed Under: Music The Showdown

Friday: At times mellow, yet always energized by the steady pounding and beeping of its 1980s-inspired rythyms and synths that strike a chord with bands like MGMT and Pheonix, Work Drugs is Benjamin Louisiana and Thomas Crystal of Philadelphia. 9:15 p.m., $10, Johnny Brenda's, with City Rain, Cold Fronts, 1201 N. Frankford Ave., (215) 739-9684.
