FRIDAY

Shoegaze your night away at the First Unitarian Church with dream-like experimental act Jesu, indulge your Billy Corgan crush with one of many Smashing Pumpkins concerts at the Tower Theater, feel a surge of power when Kanye West, Rihanna, Akon, Swizz Beatz, Soulja Boy and many more take the stage at the Wachovia Center or check out Pure’s Making Time party with DJ Erol Alkan and New Young Pony Club. I can make you ice cream… Of course, there’s always the Oh My Todd!-sponsored costume gala at Level Lounge, too, if you’ve got a crop top. Do your TTN research on the gold-Spandexed Leslie Hall (pictured), then dress up like the Liberty Bell and head over for some drinkin’ and dancin’.

SATURDAY

Put some freak into your folk at the Castanets (pictured) show at Johnny Brenda’s, make love and listen to… MSTRKRFT (not Death from Above, sorry) while moving your body at Transit, experience the mid-’90s like you’ve never experienced the mid-’90s before (The Wallflowers are playing at the Borgata) or help make a Philly band “the best in the world” by lending your applause to the Emergenza Festival at the M Room.

SUNDAY

It would be quite the injustice (ooh, cheesy joke, I know) to miss out on dancing around in your ironic T-shirt to Justice‘s “D.A.N.C.E.” during their show at the Trocadero Sunday night.
