Playing For Change at the Keswick Theater in Glenside, Montgomery County, PA.
“Playing for Change is a multimedia movement created to inspire, connect, and bring peace to the world through music. The idea for this project arose from a common belief that music has the power to break down boundaries and overcome distances between people. No matter whether people come from different geographic, political, economic, spiritual or ideological backgrounds, music has the universal power to transcend and unite us as one human race. And with this truth firmly fixed in our minds, we set out to share it with the world.”
One of the best concert venues, The Philadelphia Spectrum, has closed. Although it was a great place to see a show, it was not a good place to go to the bathroom. The line for the women’s room would get so long that girls would resort to using the men’s room. As a final tribute, this video walks through the waiting line.
The Philadelphia Spectrum has a long tradition as a concert venue. Not only was it one of the largest indoor arenas, but it has also hosted most of the largest acts. Now, it is slated for demolition. The Last Call concert brought together some of Philadelphia’s most famous artists including The Hooters, Todd Rundgren, Hall and Oates, Kevin Bacon, John DeBella and Pierre Robert.
