Join us at National Mechanics for a night of raw alt nostalgia as DJ Ferret spins four hours of live mixed videos straight from MTV’s legendary “120 Minutes” and “Subterranean” eras.

R.E.M., Depeche Mode, The Smiths, Nine Inch Nails, Björk, Oasis, and plenty more  - the artists that shaped the underground and redefined cool.

No cover. 6–10pm. All ages welcome (under 21 must be with a parent or guardian).

Grab a drink, settle in, and get lost in the sound and vision of alternative’s golden age.

Ever wonder how opera singers make those captivating sounds? Did you know that the human voice all comes from an area that is less than the size of a dime? Learn how these elements and more contribute to the incredible opera voices that have been captivating audiences for centuries… get a crash course in some opera terms too, presented by three Philadelphia-based opera singers who promise to showcase what you’ve learned with live performances!
