We are sad to hear that this Saturday’s show at MilkBoy Philly will be the last one for New Motels. We’ve always been fans of the Jenkintown four-piece. They headlined the very first Deli Philly showcase that we put together at Johnny Brenda’s so we certainly have a warm spot for them. Come out and send them off proper, and hopefully we’ll get to hear classic beauties like “Modern Thinker,” “Drama of the Hollywood Scene,” and “West Coast Brawl” for one last sing-along. New Motels will also be joined by Lightninging and Left of Logic. MilkBoy Philly, 1100 Chestnut St., 9:30pm, $10, 21+ – H.M. Kauffman
