THE CURATOR: The Clash, Bobby De Niro and a fondess for Yinzer

St. Joe Strummer

— Last week was the 30th anniversary of the Clash's London Calling show at the Tower Theatre. Local video podcast blogger Jimmy CraicHead was fortunate enough to be at the original concert and has some totally rad personal pics to prove it.

— Street fashion blog Broad & Market gets to the bottom of local color. The latest style warrior, Marty, has a fondness for Yinzers and likes to look strange — because it makes people smile. Don't know how you can get more selfless than that.

— Design-Phan's got mad love for Louella Press, and for good reason. Check out their limited edition Philly Neighborhood Prints. You've never seen typography look so sexy.

— It's raining celebs. Philebrity says Conan O'Brien's new show Justice, about the Supreme Court, is scouting locations and Variety reports Bobby De Niro will team up with local boy Bradley Cooper for Dark Fields.

— Chairman of the National Endowment for the Arts Rocco Landesman made a pit stop in Philadelphia last week. Our Chief Cultural Officer gives us the lowdown on the visit, which garnered Philly the esteemed headline "a model arts city." Take that, NYC
