Every Tuesday, Critical Mass sifts through the art blog world so you don’t have to.
— Local music blog Phrequency reported yesterday that it just turned one, and will be celebrating its time on this cyber Earth with a party at Kung Fu Necktie (1248 N. Front St., 215-291-4919) on Wed., Nov. 11 at 8 p.m. McRad, Dragonzord, Deep Possum and DJ PHSH will be performing, and it’s free. Not including the present.
— If the steep decline of This Is It ticket sales is any indication, MJ hype may have reached its dĂ©nouement. Or not: The Piazza offers its own take on “Thriller” with a video of the world’s largest simultaneous performance of the dance, which took place last Saturday. The scene is especially set ’cause all the Zombies are wet.
— The medium for most reviews is words, but local artist Todd Marrone expresses his impressions through art produced during a performance, or what he calls “sketchy reviews.” His newest is a rather enthusiastic portrait of Kyp Malone from his set at Johnny Brenda’s.
— PW Style did the leg work for fashion-conscious fans and found a strange/fun “Phil-box” hat on a Japanese Web site. PW also featured a T-shirt tribute to Utley’s beating of New York last night. His new nickname should be King Kong.
Thanks for the e-nod!
