I (Jim Thorpe) would like to invite you to my Annual Birthday Bash 2012! I have been doing this show for over 15 years. The bash has been held at the Middle East, The Grape St. Pub (some where legendary), Brownies 23. E and now it will continue at my home at The Legendary Dobbs. It is my birthday party but it’s a focus on great music so I compiled some of my favorite friends/bands/artists and put them all on one show. Life at legendary Dobbs the past year was amazing with all the shows we did with my partner in crime Double V. I have met so many new artists, new friends and music partners. Come out and celebrate with us and gear towards to making 2012 better than last year!!! Lets Rock On!!!
Featuring: Carfax Abbey, Midnight Mob, Ebd of an Era, Cubane, Metropolis America and on the 2nd floor: Fraink Viele Trio, Jamielynn Hart and The Midnight Bottle Club. Read More

Charlie Gracie is one of a diminishing number of rock& roll innovators, who continues to actively perform. A native of South Philadelphia, he became the first successful recording star of the “Rock Era” to emerge from that neighborhood. In 1957, Charlie’s “Butterfly” topped the American and British music charts, selling over 3 million copies. His other late 50′s big sellers include: “Fabulous”, “Ninety-Nine Ways”, “Wanderin Eyes”, “I Love You So MuchIt Hurts” and “Cool Baby.” These hits bankrolled Philly’s famous Cameo-Parkway record label, making it a dominant force in the music industry for nearly a decade! At the height of his fame, Charlie frequently appeared on “Dick Clark’s American Bandstand”, “The Ed Sullivan Show”, and “Alan Freed’s TV Specials”. He headlined shows at the Brooklyn Paramount, the Casino Royale in Washington, the 500 Club in Atlantic City, the Opera House in Chicago and old Connie Mack Stadium in Philadelphia. Read More

It’s been about 20yrs since Tool played JC DObbs back in 1992. The Legendary Dobbs is honoring this by bringing in Spiral Out a Tool Tribute band. The band is planning on recreating their 1992 set along with other great Tool Songs.

Mile Marker Zero, from Conn, makes thei…r return in 2012 after an incredible Halloween show at TL DOBBS. The band blends complex arrangements with great melodic songwriting. The musicianship is second to none.

The Soundouts are a Dobbs favorite. It’s basic hard driving grungy guitars, heavy bass grooves lared with a slammin back beat. The plainly just rock your asses off.

The Good Excuses are a new band on the scene to look out for. influences like Nirvana, the Dead Milkmen, and the Pixies is a pretty good starting point for a sound.

Voltheque is a 3.75 piece electro-live band Philly whose endeavor is to provide a temporary escape from reality by offering glossy soundscapes and shadowy melodies.

Upstairs we have the “ABC PARTY” – All But Clothes w/ $250 Cash Prize
