New Music Venues in Fishtown, Fillmore Philadelphia; Charges Not Reduced in Center City Attack

Live Nation's House of Blues Entertainment division announced today with confetti and fireworks that it will be opening two new music venues along the Delaware Waterfront in Philadelphia's Fishtown neighborhood. The complex will bare the famous "Fillmore" brand made famous by legendary rock promoter Bill Graham in the 1960's in San Fransisco. It will simply be known at "Fillmore Philadelphia." Live Nation plans to convert the abandoned Ajax Metal Company building located at Delaware and Frankford Aves near Sugarhouse Casino. The main room will have a 2,500 capacity. The upstairs club will have a capacity of around 500 and be known as "The Foundry." There will be a VIP Club called the Circle Bar on the second floor with box seats in the main venue. The entire venue will feature touring acts and well as local musicians. The food and beverage selections will also feature local breweries, distilleries, and fare. It is planned to open in the fall. Live Nation has used the "Fillmore" brand in Philadelphia before. In April 2007, they renamed the Theater of Living Arts (TLA) on South Street to The Fillmore at TLA until June 2008.

Two men and one woman's request to downgrade charges stemming from an attack of a gay couple in Center City last September was denied today in court. Commonwealth Judge Frank Palumbo refused defense motions to reduce aggravated assault charges and eliminate conspiracy charges against the three Bucks County defendants 24-year-old Philip Williams, 24-year-old Kathryn Knott, and 26-year-old Kevin Harrigan. Harrigan's lawyer acknowledges that his client used slurs in an exchange with the victims but says that the victims escalated the fight. Williams' lawyer says that his client was only coming to the help of girl who got hit. The three are out on bail until trial.
