The Run Down - Saturday February 16, 2008

Well if you live in or are traveling to Philadelphia tonight you will have a multitude of great shows to choose from. At Johnny Brenda's you can catch some great indie hip hop with Food For Animals, Mi Ami, and Pissed Jeans. If that doesn't satisfy your hip hop quota then, swing over to the Tritone to see the Alien Architect. If you like indie rock, I mean really good indie rock, the North Star has you covered with Drug Rug, The Bye Byes, Ezra Furman & The Harpoons, and Movable Type. Finally the Fire has the last day of the Northern Liberties Winter Music Festival and it has a super sweet line up. Illinois, Drink Up Buttercup, Cheers Elephant, Peasant, Crooked Looks, East Hundred, and Creaky Boards will all be performing,
