PhilaMOCA has been mixing things up a bit to try and enhance your usual concert going experience. Tuesday Tune-Out has brought together music and films – both of which I absolutely love. And tonight the local multipurpose space will be providing the tunes and the laughs with “Jokes, Jams, and Jigs,” a variety/benefit show featuring local live music from party rockers Cold Front, electronic dance-pop duo City Rain, and friendly, hook-laden indie rockers The Mendles. For the comedy portion of the event, you’ll find the host of “The Monthly Hour” at the Philadelphia Improv Theater James Hesky, winner of the WMGK stand-up comedy competition Lisa Yost, and one of the “Comics to Watch in 2012” by It’s Always Funny in Philadelphia Alex Grubard. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to the organization To Write Love On Her Arms, a non-profit movement dedicated to presenting hope and finding help for people struggling with depression, addiction, self-injury, and suicide. There will also be refreshments courtesy of Yards Brewing Company and Narragansett for a little social lubrication. Sounds like a good time to me! PhilaMOCA, 531 N. 12th St., 7:30pm, $8 – $10 donation, All Ages – Q.D. Tran
