“Holiday Spectacular on Ice” w/The Big Lovers & Photon Band at JB’s Dec. 2

The Big Lovers made their return to music earlier this year with a handful of shows and the reissue of their 2001 debut How I Learned to Stop Worrying as well as a digital-only EP of new-old tunes entitled The Little Giant Maxi Single. They’ve also decided to hookup with their old buddy Art DiFuria, who has been dormant from the music scene since moving to Savannah, GA to become a professor. But DiFuria has still been writing and recording while enjoying the weather down South. He’ll be making the trek up to Philly to reunite with the Photon Band and The Big Lovers for their “Holiday Spectacular on Ice.” It will be their fourth time throwing the seasonal event. According to the show’s poster, “If you remember the first three, you weren’t there.” So strap on your hollow leg and get ready for a night you’ll never remember. Cheers! Johnny Brenda’s, 1201 N. Frankford Ave., 9pm, $10, 21+ – H.M. Kauffman
