I just got here to Philadelphia a couple of weeks ago, right before Christmas. My stash is gone now and I have no idea where to hook up here.

I'm looking to meet up with some green tokers that have like-minded hobbies. I love playing guitar. I have a Variax and I play left-hand. I have a dog and we like to walk around the city a lot. Music is important to me.

My other hobby of course is smoking out. I like to smoke out while I'm awake pretty much. I like to fire it up every couple of hours or so.

I've grown three awesome cycles of aeroponic nugs and it went well. I can't do that here in my new apartment but I've still got a circular fan, some Advanced Nutrients additives, a co2 tank and regulator and some other odds and ends from my grows. If you need any tips or help, let me know. I harvested 10 oz last grow from my tiny attic.

If you have any advice for enjoying South Philly, NJ or any other PA area let me know.

Deff check out Penn's landing, vally forge ( the side by audobon is always great,) the pagoda in reading if you can get out there is awesome, and while your in that town, check out the 24 hour porn/head shop. don't ever buy any pieces in philly, wonderland over-charges, check out frolic, they have a shop in exton, and i think one in jersey, as well as two others that i can't remember where they are. ssouth street is a must, although it was better before there was a GAP and Starbucks, any part of Fairmount park, esp. the part behind the art museum, there used to be a drum circle every tues and weds night at various locations here, don't know if its still going on. i can't think of much else at the moment, but if i think of anything else, ill pass it along.

You could always check out Artifax on Cottman Ave. Its a pretty cool place, and they have some nice pieces, and a cool staff.

I'm right in Philly. Last night I walked a couple of blocks down to The Living Arts Theater and saw Pilot Speed, Annuals and The Dears. I went all by myself. At least I had some medical grade dank from California to smoke out before and after. I'm above the Italian Market. I open my window at night and it smells like garlic.

The band I went to see is from Canada. The opening band, Annuals, was from Raleigh NC and there was some hostility towards them. Turns out the leader/writer is 19 and he was screaming and hyper and full of himself. A lot of people didn't care for that and then when the music started, it was kind of like Ween. Some people like it. I thought it was alright for a six piece band with 2 drummers and the lead vocalist and guitarist also playing smaller drum set ups. The Dears came out with more expensive equipment and clothes on. They looked and sounded great.

So far it looks like I'm going to be enjoying my sweet bag of California sunshine all on my own for now.
