Fire At Legendary Philadelphia DIY Venue, The Killtime

[click through to see a picture]

The Killtime has not done shows in a long time, but for years it was a West Philly staple. Personally i saw shows including everyone from Nausea + Born Against to Missing Foundation to Citizen Fish to..... well, you name it. The building is still standing, but there seemed to be a significant fire.

It needs a lot of work on the setup, let alone the lack of content, but it's up.

there will be cross links between this site and that, though unfortunately they use separate user databases. yeah, i said it. you will have to create another user account over there if you want to contribute. sorry, but that's just how it is.
