The Clog Weekend Omnibus: Truly Outrageous Weekend

Note: Britta Phillips does not look like this.
Friday: While Mama Omnibus was (ahem, for work) researching Jem — she of the Holograms and being TRULY OUTRAGEOUS — I found that Britta Phillips — she of Luna and Dean & Britta — was the singing voice for Jerrica Benton's rock star alter-ego. If that's not enough read to see Dean & Britta's 13 Most Beautiful … Songs for Any Warhol's Screen Tests, I don't know what is. Not into Dean & Britta's Velvet Undergroundisized dream pop? Then break out that thinning Black Flag tee and get nostalgic for that time Greg Ginn totally said he'd listen to your shitty band's demo at the Barred for Life fundraiser.

Saturday: 'Cause you're already rockin' and rollin' how's about you check out Philly's own Glidon Works? We've got tracks up on the site for your aural pleasure. Not feeling it? All good. Fabolous and Seth Meich & the Big Sound Ensemble hold it down on other ends of the musical spectrum. But before, pre-game at Philly Oktoberfest because great things are born out of beer, such as a today's Talk Like a Pirate Day.

Sunday: Continue Friday's punk rock nostalgia and hit up Zine Fest. The medium ain't dead yet and these cats want to prove it to you. Finally, cap off your weekend by railing against corporate greed in Steven Soderbergh's excellent The Informant!
