Internet Bullet(in)s
I don't read Philebrity as much as the rest of you probably do, but I read this the today and found it kind of funny.
"Landlord At Danger Danger House Finally Tires Of Post-Structuralist, Avant-Garde “Each Child Is Special” Rock
danger danger houseLooks like we can finally close the book on one of the darker chapters of Philly music history, as the trustafarian sect/aesthetically challenged cabal that is West Philly’s Danger Danger House has finally, once and for all, been shown the mighty hand of “No.” Via MySpace this morning:
THE LANDLORD AT DANGER DANGER HOUSE HAS THREATENED TO DISSOLVE OUR LEASE, UNLESS ALL SHOWS HERE CEASE IMMEDIATELY!
SATURDAY, DEC. 8 HAS BEEN MOVED TO *QUEEN OF SHEBA*
ALL OTHER PLANNED SHOWS ARE NOW IN LIMBO!
The show in question here is Mahi Mahi/Grandchildren/Ex Reverie/Mike Tamburo which ironically, as Danger Danger shows go, could have actually been bearable. But if the trustfund avant-rock thug life teaches us anything, it’s that sometimes the thing you get busted for isn’t really the thing that you were doing. Fret not, though, Pony Pants fans: The new Danger Danger Gallery should be up and running any moment now.
MySpace: Danger Danger, Set Back To Private Like All Tweens Should Be
Update: After a full day’s worth of electronic harassment from the Danger Danger posse, Philebrity is sad to report: The Danger Danger House’s poverty credentials check out. To the best of our knowledge, the house is not trust-fund powered. Philebrity regrets the error, still doesn’t like hanging in basements."
Now I don't go to Danger Danger unless some combination of Sean, Avi, and Derek is playing (thous guys loved Fuck with the Bull, Get the Horns)but I do find their internet bullets to be funny.
Here is Danger Dangers reply via MySpace.
" A few questions:
- Joey, isn't it time you started going by "Joe" or "Joseph?" Do you think it makes you sound younger?
- Why don't you pay your Philebrity "journalists" or "blog artists" or "writing staff" or whatever they want to pretend they are? Do they get any Philebrity swag at least?
- Why the hell have you chosen this route to pursue as a career? What's wrong with you? Is it really fun and profitable? Really? I somehow doubt it.
- How many hours of your daily routine are an incredible waste of time?
- Do you honestly think you're a gifted writer with devilishly dry wit? Is that what you aspire to be?
- Why do you threaten to sue people when they only continue to spread lies that you initiate, and make you look pathetic at your own game?
- Do you really think The A-Sides are an amazing band? Really?
- Do you think acts like Parts & Labor, Dan Deacon, Bonde Do Role, Coughs, the USAisaMonster, Marshall Allen of the Sun Ra Arkestra, ODeath, Yah Mos Def, Genghis Tron, Barbez, Yip Yip, Mika Miko, and countless others are "every child is a star" bands? Seriously? Thousands of people I believe would collectively disagree.
- What about The Teeth? You gotta like The Teeth at least, right? So do we! Yay!
- Aren't you sorry you decided to trash everything we stand for? Aww, so are we.
Just keep our fuckin name out your mouth"
and
" After a full day’s worth of electronic harassment and lawsuit threats from the Philebrity, Danger Danger is sad to report: Joey Sweeney's story checks out. Joey was spotted at JB's last night where he enjoyed the company of peers who seemed to be at least the age of consent, thus putting the pedophile concerns to rest. By his calm and collected demeanor even my grandma could tell that this is a person who is not a raging coke-head, but someone who is fully in control of his drug consuption (he was drinking beer at the time). However, the worried look on his face left some room for impotency questions. Again, questions NOT statements. So in conclusion, Danger Danger regrets the error, still doesn’t like getting FUCKED WITH!
P.S. In addition we invite all of Philebrity staff to come out tonight to Queen Of Sheeba 2 to hang out with us and perhaps even enjoy the show. And just for you guys we'll shower and put in deodorant ;)"

Thank God..........
I feel as if I just saw Jimmy Hendrix…………..and am thanking God for those who are still actively re-writing the rules of the game.
