The Revolution Needs a Soundtrack.

Of course, this weekend, you should be occupying Philadelphia, rooting for the Phillies and celebrating Yom Kippur. Satisfy your soul, stand up for your rights and practice your civic pride.

But also appreciate the local music scene.

There’s lots of good stuff this weekend, including tUnE-YarDs (above, playing the 2nd Street Festival over the summer), which will play at Union Transfer on Sunday. Also on Sunday, the Philadelphia Orchestra (below, playing at MLK high last January) will play al fresco for free on Penn’s Landing. The show begins at 6:30. Here are a few other interesting shows this weekend.

Friday:

Ska legends The Toasters play the North Star Bar.

Beatallica, a Beatles/ Metallica mash-up, play live at the Grape Room.

Rapper Kuf Knotz and his troupe perform at Milkboy Philly.

Saturday:

Electro superstar Skrillex (below) plays the Electric Factory.

Midnight Mob (below) plays The Legendary Dobbs.

Sunday:

Ladytron plays the TLA with VHS or Beta.

And if you feel bad about not supporting the revolution, read this. You can revolt against the machine by appreciating music.
